A Game Changer

I was 55 recently and treated myself to some goodies from the Mac website. This brush is a game changer, I can't believe how much better it is compared to the sponge I've been using. The brush doesn't absorb the foundation so nothing is wasted, and the coverage is perfect. I'm SO glad I took the plunge to invest in a high quality brush!

I use this for my powder foundation and love how it buffs into my skin. Have had it for several months and still feels brand new.

This foundation brush is amazing. I use it for my powder foundation and it does wonders compaired to the pad that comes with or any other brush. Leaves skin looking smooth and not cakey. Love

Waste of money

I was shocked at the bad quality of this product I was expecting it to be soft it's really rough on my skin and for the price I paid I could have got a whole set from other brands! I am really disappointed ☹️ I did expect better quality the brush just sucks in all the product which is a waste
