This brush is the perfect size for precise blush application! It's relatively small and cute- and it gives the most beautiful finish to blushes.

Fiber optic brushes are a unique combination- the shorter dark bristles are animal hair, and the white bristles are super soft synthetic. The dark bristles never actually touch your face- rather they're there to provide space between the synthetic bristles so you can get a very light, natural looking application of things like blushes.

Another great use for this brush?  Whisking away any fallout after you're finished with your eye shadow!  The stiff bristles just whisk it all away.

To care for this brush (or any brush) we like to use either professional brush cleaner, makeup remover cloths, or 90% rubbing alcohol and a soft towel.  Water is the enemy of brushes- it can seep down into the ferrule, weaken the glue, and cause the brush to shed or even mold over time- please treat your brushes kindly, and they'll last much longer.

We don't get this from the same manufacturer as our other brushes- and it does have the natural bristles so there is a bit of a break-in period and some shedding- but it does stop after a few washings. I've been using mine for about 6 months and I love it- it's the only brush I use for blush- and almost mandatory if you're trying any of our new, more pigmented colors.

It measures 4 3/4 inches from end to end. The total bristle length is 1 inch, and the bristle diameter at the tip is just under 1 inch.
