bareMinerals Tapered Shadow Brush

This versatile pony/goat/ox blend brush doubles as both a contour eye shadow brush and eyeliner brush. For a clean sweep of color, use this brush to apply bareMinerals Eyeshadow over small areas, like your lid, or dab bareMinerals Liner Shadow along your lash line using just the brush tip.

Small but handy
-04.14.12
I was expecting the brush to be a little bit bigger, but it's not unusable. The bristles are stiff and hold powder really well. This brush is great if you want color only where you put it, with a defined edge, but can also be used for softer looks if you start at the lashline and carefully work your way up.

Excellent brush

Quick Take: soft bristles
Love this brush, doesn't get shadow all over the place. Great for the full cover of the eyelid. Firm enough to hold color. Highly recommend.

I ordered this brush as a replacement for a cheap brush I had been using. I wanted something that would hold the makeup better, and after reading the reviews for this particular brush I decided to give it a try. I am very happy with my purchase! I was looking for something fairly inexpensive, and this brush is definitely worth more than I paid for it! I would recommend this to anyone looking for a decent priced brush that is also high-quality!

Quick Take: soft bristles, full coverage
This is a good brush for all over lid coverage and for contrast color at the outer courner of the eye. It's probably my second favorite eye shadow brush, and i have a huge collection of brushes. It gives full smooth coverage.

Returned!!!
-08.29.11
I bought this for my loose eye shadow. The bristles are very hard and it doesn't deposit the eye shadow nicely. It was returned!

Perfect for Small Eyelids
-07.09.11
This is by far the best eyeshadow brush for small eyelids. In the past, I experienced trouble applying eyeshadow because I have small eyelids. However, the size of this brush is perfect for precise application. Furthermore, this brush has soft bristles and collects a fair of amount of product with one swipe.

Good for night looks
-05.06.11
Quick Take: natural hair
The brush is a bit smaller than I expected, but it's meant for precision work so that makes sense. It loads a lot of color, so really just touch it to shadows for a soft lined look, and make sure to brush the previous color out because it does load up when you want a lot.
I ordered it with the sephora smokey eye kit because the brush they give you is just ridiculously small and useless (everyone says "omg why can't they give us a brush that actually works??" because then you wouldn't buy the $14 tiny eye shadow brush too!). If you're on sephora you're not truly a bargain hunter, because this is high end stuff. All the more reason to read the reviews and choose wisely :)
Anyway, this is a good eye shadow brush. It's also my first big-girl eye brush, too. But it applies cleanly, the bristles don't fall out and it's easy to work with. Happy makeup-ing, everyone!

Good brush
-04.18.11
Quick Take: soft bristles, natural hair
Very small for smaller ares not for the entire lid but still a very good small brush. If you're looking for a smaller brush for the crease area or for blending this is the brush for you.

Good brush for only small area
-11.27.10
Quick Take: natural hair
I think this brush would be much better if it's a bit larger... Unfortunately I couldn't find another shadow brush that is made of natural hair and tappered enough, so I only use it for small part of eye lid.

Its good - on sale
-11.24.10
Got this on sale and it was worth the sale price. Its small which is good, and flat to lay down wet/dry shadows however my bristles are starting to fray/loosen up so thats my only negative comment.

great buy!
-06.24.10
I was hesitant about buying another shadow brush, but I'm so glad I splurged on it! This is a great buy! I use it mostly for eye liner, but you can also use it for eye shadow. Once again, I am impressed and not even slightly disappointed by yet another BE product!

Awesome brush
-06.12.10
This is an awesome shadow brush I was using an eye brush from ELF (yuck), and it just wasn't doing it for me. I spent the extra dollars on this one, and boy, was it worth every penny! Eye shadow goes on nice and smooth, and stays put! Love it, love it!
