New favorite makeup brush

So I haven’t ever specifically bought a brush for eye shadow - I’ve been using the free ones in those Estée Lauder eyeshadow set (yes, I know. . the ones from high school). I bought some makeup a last year from Merit and was obsessed so I knew it was finally time to upgrade. I thought I’d try out the brush and eyeshadow! TBH I’ve only used the brush about 3 times but I do like it! It smudges the eyeshadow a LOT better than my finger

Too small, no case or cap to prevent transfer of shadow from brush between uses

The dual tip is nice but I gave up on the brush after a few uses. The solo shadows are easy enough to apply with your fingers. The brush also doesn’t come with a case or have any cap/covering to prevent transfer of shadow onto other things it’s stored with so you have to clean it after every use. Spend your money on another solo shadow instead; those are great, the brush not so much.

Great brush, BUT…

Brush No. 2 is an amazing brush! The fluffy end is amazing at blending and building shadow. The smaller end is equally as great at applying shadow to the under eye and watermark, but it tends to get really stiff with product if not cleaned after every use.
