The brush hairs are quite hard and it's itchy when you apply with to your face. The powder holding power is just 'so so'.

Sorry, but this brush has been the biggest brush disappointment from Cult Beauty for me. Shape is really nice but the size is smaller than expected and the bristles are just so coarse that even the softest touch scratches your face and it just does not feel nice against skin. If the bristles would be better it could be the perfect brush.

I love how soft this brush is I've had a dupe for this brush but now I have like 3of the real one and I love them to bits!

I really like this brush from Nars. I've had mine a couple of years now and it's been really good. It's perfect for a lovely glowy look, lends out and applies blush really well. Also good for light powder application. Needs to be cleaned often to be as good as it can though. This does shed and always has, though it getting worse after yeas of use.
