Feedback: Having ‘Charlotte’s hands’ all over your face is something that celebrities pay dear for, so for having such blending expertise at your fingertips day in, day out, the steep price point seems prudent. It’s smaller than most foundation brushes in my collection, but that by no means equates to it being less might, especially as it nips into nooks and crannies around the nose and mouth very artfully indeed. The synthetic fibres are extremely soft and very effectively tapered for streak-free application, and they didn’t shed or leave any fine ‘hairs’ behind on my face, which I can tell you is not a given with every base brush. It’s easy to wash, doesn’t pick up too much product and the handle reminds me of one of the corrective pencil holders at school that encouraged you to write properly. This, in turn, probably prompts you to apply your foundation properly!
Was it worth the money? Yes- it’s a high quality, high end brush that washes well and will last a long time. For some the small size might be off putting though as it doesn’t allow you to buff over big cheeks quite so quickly!
Would you recommend it to a friend? Charlotte is EVERY makeup lover's best friend, so yes.
