e.l.f Fan Brush

I brought this brush to see how it applied highlighter, it's very affordable and does do the job. I'm not sure how long it's going to last as it's not the best quality. It has a little bit of a hard time picking up the product I find but overall it's very affordable so I wasn't expecting much. I think it is better suited to brushing off fall out rather then applying product.

I think it does an okay job of applying my highlighter. However I think I have other brushes which do a better job. It seems to pick up the product okay but doesn't seem to transfer it to my ace so well. The best thing about it is that it is very cheap and affordable.

I quite like this brush. It's the first and only fan brush I have ever owned, and for me it does the job.

The quality of the brush isn't the best but I only paid around $1 for it so I'm not even going to complain.

The bristles are red, which I though was a little odd lol, never seen a red makeup brush before, but hey, it doesn't affect the brush in any way so that's fine with me. It does have a little trouble picking up product though, so it does take me a couple of attempts to get my desired amount of highlighter applied but once I'm finished, I'm always happy with the result.

I never have any fallout issues with the bristles, which makes a nice change. A few of my powder brushes always leave bristles all over my face and sometimes I don't even notice them right away =/

Once I get better at highlighting etc, I will invest in better quality brushes, but for now, I'm quite happy to stick with this one.

On my latest iherb haul I picked up quite a few e.l.f. things, the price is sometimes just too good to look past! They had a special on beauty items so this ended up being USD $2.40 so for a new brush I thought, why not?

This brush looks like you would expect. Also feels a lot more high-end than the price would make you suspect. It has a wooden black long handle with the name printed on it. The ferrel is black also as is the hairs. I have washed this a couple of times and it has kept its shape well. The bristles are incredibly soft.

Now this is a brush of limited uses. Unfortunately because the bristles are so soft and long and flimsy it isn't the best for picking up a lot of pigment. But I do love it for picking up highlighter. I'm not a huge fan of an intense highlight on a day to day basis so this is great for picking up my MAC Soft and Gentle and just applying it lightly across my (non-existant) cheekbones.

So would I recommend... If you are after something that applies things lightly it is great. But I wouldn't pay more than I did as it isn't a multi-use brush.

I purchased this brush to apply powdered highlighter to my cheek bones and while it comes at a great price, I am keeping my eye out for a more effective one. This brush definitely does the job, but I don't find it effective or efficient enough at picking up the powder, it takes a lot of runs over the surface to pick any pigment up. This brush is cheap and great starting fan brush but don't expect great things from it.

I use this brush to apply powder highlighter ontop of my cheekbones,I do not use it for anything else but that,it picks up the right amount of product and with the lightest touch enough goes onto your skin,
