Nov 12 2009 - 10:00am Zoot alors! My favorite foundation brush recently bit the dust. After searching through the Product Reviews pages, I think I might just have to give Estée Lauder Foundation Brush 1F ($30) a try.
I bought Lancome's version of this brush and couldn't agree more on what an amazing difference it makes. I mix my liquid foundation on my hand with lotion, then apply to my face with this
brush. Afterward, if I need more coverage, I apply a bit more foundation and it looks flawless. Never any lines! Another perk, I've had this brush for about 3 years now and it still looks and
works like it's brand new. Definitely worth the money!
I couldn't agree more about this foundation brush! It is well worth the $30 price tag.
I am an avid fan/user of Bare Escentuals, but when it started settling into my fine lines, I found this brush to "buff" the powder foundation out of my forehead and under eye lines. As the
reviewer said, it works well with liquid foundation (if I need more coverage than BE can offer, I will use a tinted moisturizer under the powder foundation) and also mineral makeup.
The only drawback to the brush is the handle, which is very long for a makeup brush. The long handle makes it a little difficult to pack in the smaller cosmetics bags when going on vacation.
Hoo boy I wish I had 30 bucks to spend on a single brush. My $13 Revlon foundation brush
hasn't failed me yet~ but this is definitely on my wishlist. Sounds nice.

1i've been looking for a good foundation brush for a while now. maybe i'll check this one (or the lancome one) out!
2I seriously wish it wasn't $30. I'll try a drugstore brush first...just to see if I even like using a brush for this.

5definitely agree about this brush too!! it works great with my tinted moisturizer. i used to use a sephora one, and this a thousand times better.
