I am on the fence too. In the Icon thread Jude said she though it was soft yet thick,.. Ya know I shouldn't but probably will if it is as soft as I hope. I notice that my higher quality brushes give me better application,.. I am not talking about price quality here,.. (I have some Sonia Kashuk's that rock) Sugar cosmetics have on that is $16 but not nearly as soft as I would like,.... so,.... it depends on if you feel like it is worth the $$ as compared to one you could get elsewhere cheaper.

ditto, I think it's over priced, when you can get a decent kabuki for $10 cheaper. And like you said, CultureBloom is coming up very soon.

Well, I broke down and bought it, and I have to say, I just don't want to use it....I WANT TO PET IT! I'm a MAC brush freak, so once I saw it I had to have it. I've only tested it out putting powder on my face just now, and it's sooooooo soft.

If you already have a kabuki brush, then I'd pass on it. If you have that money lying around, then get this one. However, you can find ones just as nice if not better for way less. I wouldn't buy it, even if I was a millionaire....is that drastic?

i'm not jennifer but MUA has recommended cat cosmetics kabuki very highly, and even the chanel kabuki is cheaper than MAC's, and apparently good quality. the chanel one also comes with its own pouch

so kabuki brush is for 'buffing' powder on your face, so would something like stila's #21 flat head brush be the same?

I actually have a brush very similar to the Stila brush and I also have a Bobbi Brown kabuki, which I would recommend - $30. Anyway, I use them very differently. I use the kabuki to put on mineral makeup. I use the flat top for MSFs and Blush. I do know people that use the flat top for applying their mineral makeup but I wouldn't. I don't think they buff as well.

I have the Cat Kabuki and the Japonesque Kabuki (as well as Bare Escentuals). Get the Japonesque one. It is just as good as Cat (it may not appear soft at first but gets softer after you wash it). It is $25 but then you can use the coupon for $3.50 at Ulta (also online too).

The MAC one is so overpriced, the BB is very soft and I have it and work great. I wouldn spend 45 on it no way.

I bought the kabuki, the LE label always gets me, but I feel awfully guilty for spending $45......maybe I'll return it. :confused:

Why on earth are they charging so much for this brush?

I already own several kabukis in cases (Clarins, Bobbi Brown, A-squirrel) but that Tarte case is faboo (thanks inlucesco)!!
