I wonder if people got a bad batch of brushes or something because I LOVE my kabuki brush! It's never shed, never. And I wash my brushes weekly with baby shampoo. It is dense, soft, and picks up...

This brush shedded immediately, it is quite painful to use on sensitive skin and had the weirdest smell. Yuk!

This shed so much I had to toss it out. I think I got it half price, but still, it was of no use at all.

Usually E.L.F. brushes are $1 and great, so I was happy to lay out $5 for a kabuki. Unfortunately, this brush is terrible. It's so scratchy that I can't use it. I have no idea how it works at...

At first i was really disapointed with this brush, the bristles aren't that soft and the shed like crazy! Because of this i put it to the back of my makeup draw and forgot about it. However...

Horrible brush!!! Bought this for applying my mineral makeup. It sheds horribly, I had the hairs all over my face and it was really annoying.

The E.L.F. Kabuki face brush is worth the $5.00. The brush is soft but dense so a lot of product get onto the brush. I use this mostly for my powder foundation and have about 3 of them. Nice brush!

After reading numerous reviews on this brush, I bought it knowing it was probably going to be more of a general all over powder brush. After opening and using the brush for a week, I have to agree...

Overall, this is not a bad kabuki face brush for the price you pay. However, I'm not exactly thrilled about it for the following reason. The synthetic bristles are too soft and not dense enough...

This brush shed like crazy. It did a nice job of applying foundation but I had the brush hairs all over my face when I was done. It's also a strange texture, kind of hard (which no make-up brush...

I'm not sure what else you could ask for in a cheapo kabuki. The ELF studio brushes are great.This one is super soft, pretty dense, and mine doesn't shed at all. It's not as firm as I'd want for...

I'm actually not sure why this brush got such bad ratings, but the one I am reviewing is for the studio line Kabuki Face Brush. This brush is amazingly soft. I just got it this morning and let...

*******FIRST of all... Kabuki brushes are Supposed to be hard, they are not to be as soft as other brushes. And most brushes shed if you clean it with the wrong stuff or the wrong way- so know...

I want to give my review on this product! Yes, the OLD Kabuki brush *the one with the brown bristles* was Horrible! Absolute junk. But, the new kabuki brush, that has white and black bristles is...

This is my first kabuki brush and I got it free with my purchase. It's definitely not as soft as my other ELF brushes, but it still does the job for me. It applies my finishing powder very well...

I just got this brush for free with my elf purchase. When I first opened the package for the brush, there was hair everywhere. It was already shedding. I just finished deep cleaning it, before I...

Not a fan of this brush. It's E.L.F's most expensive brush, I believe ($5.) I have been turned onto E.L.F's brushes because they are so cheap and I've had pretty good luck with some of them. But...
