I've been using this. Shows signs of use. The bristles on the highest part were sticking out a bit, and when I pulled on them, they came out. I'm scared to try it, but more might come out. How about it for those who want to try the feel before buying new? Washed. Body only, no accessories. This high-performance foundation brush has a silky smooth feel, evenly adheres foundation, and creates a finish that makes pores and uneven skin tone seem nonexistent. Can be used with liquid and cream foundation. A makeup artist-supervised brush made using traditional Kumano techniques. - Brand: Clé de Peau Beauté - Color: Navy - Features: High-quality finish - Application: Foundation brush Thank you for looking.
