This stiff brush seems to be suitable for cream eyeshadows. It can produce a strong color. You can also use the tip to apply it to small areas. The synthetic hair makes it easy to care for.
I have dry and sensitive skin (I suspect I have atopic dermatitis), so I can't use brushes that irritate my skin. I find this brush very useful for spreading eyeshadow lightly and applying a darker shade instead of eyeliner. So far, it hasn't caused any irritation, and since it's made of synthetic bristles, I can wash it without worrying, so it's easy to use. I hope it lasts a long time, but I think I'll buy it again if it starts to wear out.
I use it for concealer. It's a little thin, but it's fine. There are a lot of good, cheap brushes out there, but I feel like I've improved my makeup by using Make Up For Ever brushes.
I bought this because it was recommended as a concealer brush on YouTube. The brush head is slightly smaller than your index finger, making it easy to use. It's flexible and feels great on the skin, which I love. I use it with the Addiction concealer palette. It also seems like it would work well with liquid concealers, so I'd like to try it!
The bristles are soft and firm, making them easy to use.
