I use this fantastic brush as a foundation brush and it blends perfectly. It's very very soft but does a wonderful job of buffing out liquids as well as powder makeup. I prefer this over some of my MAC and Sigma brushes.

The elf studio powder brush is amazing, it is very soft, works with powders and liquids, and is large enough to be better and faster than other brushes that do foundation. It also does blush and bronzer, and blends things in nicely. I did find that the hairs were uneven and needed trimming. My gripe with this brush is that it comes loose from the handle, which makes it uncomfortable to use.

The elf essential powder brush, I find to be ok. It's not the softest brush in the world, can feel scratchy, but it does a good job with undereyesetting powder and bronzer. I find that it is a good size for both those things, but it is too small for the whole face, as it takes too long, that's not to say that you can't use it to buff powder on the whole face. I do prefer the studio tapered brush, as it is essentially the same brush, but softer.

Awesome brush, ELF has great brushes overall. I've not ever been disappointed by the quality-ever. Great for wet or dry product.

This is probably my favorite makeup brush of all time. It's synthetic, so you can use it with wet or dry products. I have two of them -- one I use for liquids/creams (this brush is GREAT for applying foundation, it's fast and blends so well) and one that I use to apply powder (I prefer to pack the powder on rather than buff it in, but it works well that way also). The glue in the ferrule tends to loosen and the brush comes apart, but that's easily fixed with a little super glue or something. The brush is so cheap -- it's only $3 (USD) but such a great tool -- I love it and highly, HIGHLY recommend it to everybody! It's a great brush to have in your collection!

e.l.f. Powder Brush is great with wet or dry products.
It creates a flawless look and full coverage.
A beauty tool must have.

it is really soft and works to my expectations! it really picks up the colour and transfers it smoothly onto my face.

I do wish it was just a little bit more dense, however it's still a great brush with setting powders, and especially considering the price !
A must have for beauty on a budget !

My every day face brush! I use this to pack on my powder, or to buff in my powder foundation! beautifully dense but still soft! Not bad for $3!

I used my friend elf powder brush its works great .

Great quality brush for the price!

Didn't shed when I washed it but it did bleed a little. Soft synthetic brush perfect for buffing it powder. I've yet to try it with liquid foundation but for powder I thought it was great. I really can't complain for the price I think this is way better then many other discount brushes.
