This is probably one of the best, most versatile eye brushes you'll ever use.  It's specially designed to use with mineral pigments.  If the brush is dry it pats the color on making them rich and pigmented, or blends them out beautifully.  It's also great for foiling mineral eye shadows.

What is foiling?  Foiling (and I didn't make-up the name)- is the art of applying mineral eye shadow with a damp brush.  Foiling makes the colors more intense- a little darker, and a little more saturated, and a lot more shimmery.   To use it- just wet the brush, and dip it in the eye shadow, then blend it on.

Really- a little water won't hurt any of our brushes- but what makes this one unique is that it has synthetic bristles- that along with the shape of the head (it's flat), makes it perfect for foiling.  The shape of the head makes it hold those pigments, and it dries pretty quickly.
