    I swapped away my 182 for this brush used and 2 piggies. Lke others I was shocked at how much smaller it was to the 187. The bristles weren't as firm as I thought they'd be either. I still like it...

    The 188 has become my primary blush brush. It is really versatile and I love that it could be used for both powder and cream formulas. The smaller brush head allows for controlled application. ...

    I love this brush! I tried the large skunk brush from Sephora and I'll admit that sucker was too large for me to do anything with. I happen to be at my local CCO one day and I saw this cute brush...

    This cute little booger means business. I use this for buffing on my MSF natural, for controlled blush application, and it's amazing for highlighters. It's very small but that's mostly why I love...

    Got this Saturday and changed it today for a 168! 188 was way too small to do much with,even to put concealer on!!! So pleased I could change it.

    Ok, forever ago I reviewed the 187 and while I like it for foundation still, I've switched to using it as a blush brush and the 188 as my foundation brush. This all came about last fall, I had an...

    The 188 (my first brush!) is the absolutely the best brush! You can do tons of things with this brush: concealer, foundation (187 is better, but it still can do), and many more! Absolutely love it!

    LOVE it! I thought it will be too small, but actually it's perfect for my face shape. I use it for pigmented (i.e. mineral) blushes, bronzer, highlighters and sometimes for foundation (although I...

    Well, I hate to spoil the party, but I am just "meh" when it comes to this brush. Bought it because I love the 187 (and will probably end up buying at least 2 more of those), but this brush wasn't...

    The perfect brush for densely pigmented blushes, like Chanel and Nars. It aides in placing the right amount of blush on just the apples, if I wish. I thought about getting the 187, as everyone...

    A great blush for dabbing on cream blush. I tend to like smaller brushes because I feel that they allow for more precision. This one is also great for applying liquid foundation and highly...

    This brush is far better than the 187 for cream blush application in my opinion. This size of this brush head just allows for a more foolproof application. My 187 is for powder blush,bronzers and...

    i bought first 2 187 brushes and then i discovered 188: it's so much better to apply your blushcreme on a small area. gives yuo more control and perfect blending. brilliant
