DUcare Kabuki Foundation

I was initially drawn in by the great reviews, and I have to say, it did not disappoint. The bristles are soft but densely packed so it distributes product without sucking it all up like a beauty blender type sponge. The chubby handle is actually not too bad in terms of holding it, which surprised me as it's a thick brush. It blended the product in beautifully, leaving a nice skin-like finish with no streaks, which I've found with other more pricey brushes. It took me literally seconds to get a full base down and I could get right into awkward areas like my nose, eyes and hairline which sponges can struggle with. I could build my own coverage level too by blending in more product in areas I felt needed it (I have really rosy cheeks!). I decided to test out how it would work with other products too; it blended concealer, contour and cream blush with ease, I could easily control where the product ended up and had a lovely clean finish. I just use a cheap foaming cleanser to remove product and there was no shed of hairs and it retains its shape easily. Overall I am really impressed, it has definitely cut down my routine time and I love the finished look. Very happy with the purchase. For full disclosure: I only wear medium coverage dewy finish products or full coverage products thinned down with moisturiser as I'm a dry skin gal. So I can't speak for how it manages thicker, heavier, matte liquid or cream foundations.

Wow!! Amazing brush!! I always buy Zoeva brushes which are around £23. I read the reviews on this one and thought I would try it.....so glad I did. Just as good, if not better than the Zoeva brushes. Foundation went on smooth and easily. Will be buying more!

Been using this brush to apply my foundation and its a lovely brush. It feels solid but soft enough at the same time. Would highly recommend.

Love this brush! First time I've ever tried applying foundation with one, and its so much easier. I hardly wear make-up, I'm lazy and comfortable in my own skin, but, when I do, it's a real treat using this brush. It's so soft, I put a couple of blobs of foundation on the back of my hand then use the brush to soak it up and apply to my face. The brush gives even coverage without drying. Had a few streaks and a few detached bristles, but that will cease after a wash I'm sure. Great value for money, the brush arrives in a quality sealed box, with a net to stop the bristles splaying. Would I reccomend? Sure. It's really fun to use and every make-up kit needs one. This brand are a great choice!

Excellent brushes I have bought a few of them easy blending with liquids or powder make-up not thick handle for easy grip good value for money clean well with the right solution

One of the best make up brushes I’ve used, easy to clean and gives you a very smooth look with your makeup

I wanted to give it some time before posting a review. I have been using this make-up brush for few weeks now. First thing I noticed it that my foundation will last so much longer. Unlike the sponge, the brush does not absorb all of the liquid foundation. One little drop is enough to spread it around my face. I don’t always do the best job on a finish, so I sometimes go over my face with a clean sponge and tapping motion. Bristles are very soft and so nice to touch. It is all very gentle on my skin. I have now also washed the brush with a soap, running water and the cleaning makeup tool and it took only couple of minutes for the water to run clean. I am satisfied with the brush. I never thought I’d go back to using brushes for foundation application but I am glad I did. My choice for firmly made by reading reviews on Amazon and I am happy that those reviews were genuine. If you are considering buying yourself this brush, don’t hesitate. I highly recommend it.

Bought this but really can’t get on with it. Knew as soon as I took it out of the box that the brush is just too rigid and stiff, I prefer a much softer brush for applying make up otherwise I feel like I’m just dragging it over my skin And not applying. Didn’t get round to returning it so I’ve popped it in my make up bag where no doubt my daughter will liberate it as she’s much more experienced in using various brushes for a whole selection of things on her face. More time to watch you tube tutorials on her hands! This one just wasn’t for me! I just wanted a nice soft full brush.
