Main highlights

• •NO-SHED, VEGAN, HIGH BRISTLE-COUNT MAKEUP BRUSHES: Your makeup application is only as good as the quality of your brush. That's why you'll love this no-shed, high-bristle-count vegan brush that feels luxurious and blends seamlessly.
• •HIGH QUALITY PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP BRUSHES: A high-quality makeup brush can make all the difference. Case in point: this versatile, retractable Kabuki brush, which can apply foundation, color, highlight, or contour.
• •TRAVEL FRIENDLY ON-THE GO MAKEUP BRUSH: The Kabuki brush is a desert-island pick for plenty of makeup artists, and for good reason. Great for building coverage with both pressed and loose powders, it's a tool that can work with plenty of different makeup. And the petite, travel-friendly size of this one makes it even more of a must-have.
• •EVEN, STREAK FREE & PATCH FREE APPLICATION: Swirl or dip the retractable Kabuki brush into powder and gently tap off any excess. Apply to skin using sweeping, circular motions. Slide the base down slightly to apply creams or push it down all the way for powders.
• •PERFECT FOR LIQUID, CREAM, AND POWDER PRODUCTS:If you only have one brush in your makeup bag, this is the one to have—it works with loose and pressed powders, is a quadruple-threat (use it wiith foundation, color, highlight, or contour), and even packs away easy for travel.
