I am in LOVE with this brush! I know it says that it is a mineral powder brush but I have been using it both for my liquid foundation and for precise contouring. This brush is amazing for this! The bristles are synthetic taklon which is fantastic for liquid and cream makeup and the brush is the perfect dome size for buffing. I get a FLAWLESS finish with my foundation with this brush. because of the size it really works well in the contours of my cheeks. It is so versatile I am definitely going to be buying more of this same brush.
