Everyday Minerals Flat Top Brush

Coastal Scents Deluxe Buffer Brush

http://www.coastalscents.com/cfwebstore/index.cfm/product/793_37/deluxe-buffer-brush.cfm

Price- $4.25 USD

I got this after I read great reviews on both YouTube and Coastal Scents Website. I use this to apply my mineral foundation and it does a pretty good job. I read some had problems with the way the bristles smell but I did not find the smell bothersome. It did shed a little bit initially when I washed but not after that. The bristles are soft (sometimes little pokey) and the short handle is perfect because I have more control when I buff in the mineral foundation. I like this brush and you can’t beat the price.

Everyday Minerals Flat Top Brush

https://www.everydayminerals.com/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&page=shop.browse&category_id=20&Itemid=46

Price- $10 USD ($5.6 when you buy it in the personal custom kit, even less with the super custom kit)

I got this with my personal custom kit in which you can choose any 6 full sized EDM items for $34. So I only paid $5.60 for this brush. This brush is simply awesome. I use it to apply my mineral foundation and it does a great job. The bristles are super soft and dense. No shedding at all. I love this brush and CAN NOT live without it.

Overall I like both the brushes. Both are good, but the EDM Flat top brush is a sure winner. It is more soft and dense compared to the CS flat top brush. Both the brushes are almost the same price (when the EDM brush is bought in a kit), so if you are looking for a good brush for mineral foundation I definitely recommend the Everyday Minerals flat top brush. It’s an absolute must have.

Finally I got my EDM package after 3 weeks. I was very disappointed when I came to know that I had to pay an additional $10 for customs. I had to pay $10 and collect my package from a post office outlet. All that disappointment just vanished as soon as I opened my package. This is my 2nd order from EDM. I ordered the personal custom kit this time for $34
