Top

Slightly domed and dense head. The shape and size is similar to Sephora Professionnel Platinum Concealer Airbrush #57. 
It is the perfect shape and size to fit under and around the eye to achieve a nice airbrushed look with liquid or cream concealer. It works to blend enough concealer away, so it does not settle in the lines. It makes liquid or cream concealer go on evenly without streaking or flaking.

It's not good for pinpoint coverage as the tip is too large and dense.
And it's also too large for covering little acne scars and for the side of nose. As I said above, it's perfect size for UNDER EYE CIRCLES! 

The bristles are more tight than I thought and therefore the coverage is heavy, and retain the concealers's coverage without looking caked on.
The thin tip is easy to get cakey look as the hair apply too much liquid or cream application. But this dense tip prevent it leaving flawless finishing. 
 

Softness (degree 1-10)

5. It uses PBT (synthetic hair) with just the right amount of flexibility. The hair is very fine and feel soft and smooth. 


Let's compare [CMP560] Concealer Brush and [CMP562] Concealer Brush!

 

Right: [CMP560] Concealer Brush
Left: [CMP510] Concealer Brush


 

CMP510 Concealer Brush is much more dense.
CMP560 is a good 
concealer brush for covering small acne scars, blemishes.



I recommend you to wash 2-3 times a week if you use it everyday. This durable brush is not easy to become useless. I think it will take a little time to dry away after you wash as the hair is dense .

Functions

You can use it with all types of foundation, whether BB, liquid, cream, or powder. 
The way I use it is to dab concealer under my eyes or other area and blend out with this brush using a gentle circular buffing motion. 

Also, it's good for applying a concentrated amount of mineral powder or foundation powder over the blemish to cover it up.
