1 Pc Duo Fiber Large Powder, Black: Beauty Junkees Pro Duo Fiber Large Powder Makeup Brush To Blend And Diffuse Loose, Pressed, Translucent Powders For Setting, Finishing, Bronzi

I have super-sensitive skin and haven't used any powder or blush brushes in years after one I had messed my skin up big-time. Turned out the bristles in the brush I was using then was causing micro-cuts in my skin. I recently changed my makeup routine and needed a very soft powder brush-- I found this and figured that, for the price, it was worth a try. I've been using it daily with no problems at all, plus it's easy to clean. If I find I need other brushes, I'm definitely going to check out Beauty Junkees first!

Good soft brush I use it for blush, and I love it

Great brush! Soft dense fibers. Perfect regular size: Not too large or too small.

very soft!

Overall, I think this is a great brush! It works really well. It feels like really nice quality like it’ll last a long time! I was happily surprised with this brushes and definitely need to check out more from the brand! It might seem like this is pretty pricey for a single brush for $11.97 (at the time of writing this review). But, for the quality of this brush - how it looks, feels, and works - I think that’s a great price! It’s on par with the quality of my Sigma face brushes are usually about $25 a brush! So, I think $11.97 is a great price! This comes in a ziplock kind of pouch. It is in a plastic sleeve. The pouch doesn’t say where it’s made, just that it’s designed in Texas. It has a nice weight to them. It has a matte black handle and silver ferrule. The ferrule is on tightly. It didn’t feel loose at all. The hairs are black with white tips. The handle has the brush name (“Duo Fiber Large Powder”) and then “by beautyjunkees.” The label isn’t centered (I show a photo of it next to another Beauty Junkee brush so you can see what I mean), which kind of annoyed me, but that’s just the perfectionist in me. It’s really not a big deal since it doesn’t effect how the brush works. The hairs are soft and cut evenly. I didn’t have any shedding at all. I am a huge makeup lover and I love makeup brushes! I’ve had many different kinds of brushes from really affordable to really expensive and many between. The price never factors into whether or not I love the brush. Just the quality and how well it works. I’ve had really affordable ones that I absolutely loved and ones I absolutely hated, just like I’ve had really expensive ones I absolutely loved and ones I absolutely hated. I love both natural haired brushes and synthetic brushes. Synthetic hair has gotten so good that it’s hard to tell sometimes between really good synthetic haired brushes and natural haired brushes. But, when it comes to synthetic haired brushes, there is one thing that usually leads to me not liking the brushes - when the hairs have that overly synthetic, silky/slippery feel to them. If you have used a lot of different brushes you probably know what I mean. But they just feel silky soft. They’re extremely soft, but TOO silky soft so they just don’t hold handle product well. Luckily, this one isn’t like that! It does have a slightly silky feel to it like some synthetic brushes can, but not overly silky where they’re slippery and just don’t grab/hold onto product well. So I was really happy about that! I love duo fiber brushes to apply bronzer and blush. I feel they are perfect for when I want a wash of color and an airbrushed look. They just apply product so nicely. I especially love duo fiber brushes for cream blush and bronzer! It picks up the product nicely and spreads and blends it evenly without being too heavy. This is called a “Duo Fiber Large Powder.” I wouldn’t really use it for powder. It’s definitely a bigger duo fiber brush. It works well for me for bronzer but is a little bigger than I’d like for blush. However, mine came kind of pinched, where it was flat on the front and back. I think it was from being in the plastic sleeve. Usually, washing will snap brushes back into shape. This one didn’t change after the first wash, but sometimes it takes a few washes to get the shape back. So, that may happen. I don’t think it’s supposed to be pinched like that, so I expect it to happen eventually. But, I do like it being pinched. Since it would normally be too large for me for blush, with it being pinched, I’m still able to use it for blush. I still prefer it for bronzer though!
