I have bought this brush when Rae Morris demonstrated this in use on her Sydney master class 2 weeks ago and I don't regret it despite the price. It applies foundation in seconds and leaves an even, natural skin tone with no streaks. Just be careful with your hairline as it can get product on to it due to the bigger size. All Rae's brushes a hand-made in Japan in collaboration with an exceptional master and are very expensive to produce so the price cannot be cheap, they however worth it and will last you ages.
