Back to brushes...

Looks like this dilemma will not be solved easily. I have worked with synthetic and natural brushes in the last few months and I must admit that natural brushes are far more superior than synthetic ones because of their shape. Natural hairs are very good for powder and blending due to their soft narrow tips. Synthetic brushes have to be cut and even if they are soft, are unable to hold and release the powder like natural ones. Anyone who does make-up knows that the key to perfect make-up is blending and I don't care what people say but I know a crap brush gives a crap blend
(and a lot more hard work)- It's an unstated fact!

So back to square one it is with the brushes...
