It has a high density bristles, and really goes well with pressed powder. (I prefer using this brush for pressed powder not loose powder since it has a moderate firmness.) It covers pores perfectly especially when applying powder in a circular motion. If you like to use loose powder, tap the powder brush into the powder, then gently, flawlessly blow off excess powder before applying.The head is very similar to Mizuho [CMP510] Foundation Brush.
If you use liquid or cream-based foundation, I recommend CMP510 as it uses PBT. (PBT: synthetic hair)
Since the diameter of tip is not so large, also perfect for blush or highlighting.
The dense, rounded shape moves easily along the cheekbone, jawline and provides flawless finish.
