~I admit I am late to the party/Small steeple blush brush~

croemer — Thu, 30 Jan 2014 18:30:50 GMT

But for those who have never used the small steeple blush brush...wow what a difference it makes when applying blush. I have been reading bloggers and Youtube video's about the "elf" small steeple blush and decided...wt..hay for 3 bucks what can I lose? I am in love with this blush brush...do yourself a favor if you have not given it a try.

Welcome to the club! Over the past 6 months I needed to update/replace my aging collection of beat down brushes. I've pretty much replaced everything with Elf Studio line and Real Techniques.

When it comes to the Elf brushes I've been amazed at the quality and performance for $3-$6 bucks. Now, I don't want you to break the bank, but if you can spare the $6 , that kabuki brush is awesome!

Hi kjohnson, I have been eying that brush as well as a few others...one being the lrg. steeple brush. TY for the review.

Hi croemer... I also have and love the complexion, eyeshadow c, and contour brushed along with the small stipple and the kabuki. Well worth the investment of $18!

FWIW, the Studio brushes are definitely a step up from the Essentials. Nice brushes for a buck, but not the quality of the Studio brush.

I like that you can try all this stuff for very little money and if it doesn't work for you, you really aren't out too much.

I know...their pricing is amazing...yet the brush quality is very good on the Studio line.18 dollars won't break the bank.

Where do you purchase Elf brushes????

I belong to a group on FB, and a lady recommended this type of brush. She said a stippling brush was very helpful in applying cream blush. Won't hurt to try.

Hi SFC!!! Good to see ya. I am telling you they apply all blushes so much better...from powder...to cream...to gel. I have an "It" blush stain I just could never get to apply smoothly just thought of trying the brush with "It" stain blush and the blush applied wonderfully.

Hi Croemer. Good to hear from you as well. I'm ordering some of those brushes and I thank you for the tip!

Thanks for the heads up! I buy e.l.f. at Target and I'll definitely look for this on my next trip.

Great...I think you both will not be disappointed. Good luck!

The picture looks like what is or was called a skunk brush where I got mine. Now I don't remember when or where that was. It was so long ago.

Mine is larger though and I use it for loose mineral blush, not cream. I love my skunk brush!

I got one of those last summer and love it for applying cream blushes!

Check out Real Technique brushes too .......... they have sets on Amazon for great prices and I think they might even have an entire stippling set. Last time I checked they offered a pretty decent selection of sets as well as individual brushes~

Nice quality for very reasonable pricing. Ulta might also carry them - I don't go into Ulta much but thought I saw some there the last time I shopped there. Amazon pricing might be better however.

I think you mean stipple brush. Stippling is an artist technique, shading by using small dots. I always use a brush in applying cream or powder blush. I've never stippled on blush, though. Won't hurt to try it! But if I do, I will need a flat head brush.

I looked for one of these in Wal-Mart today. They did carry several of the E.L.F. brushes but didn't have this one. I do have some E.L.F. brushes and find them to be good quality. I have never used a stipple brush and am very curious to try one. I am going to check Target the next time I go to see if they have it.

You are so right...I do not know what I was thinking...it is stipple...grrr TY!

Ladies Uta may have it as well. I like the elf site if you have a problem finding one.

I think Mac calls their #188 a skunk brush. I got one about a week ago and love it. My cream blush has never looked this good.
