This makes for an excellent brush to smudge and blend in small areas because it allows precise strokes. I took away two stars because I'm not familiar with this brand- it seems to be a knockoff choice for MAC, or it's credibility, and the price for that matter is a bit overestimated- but they've done a decent enough job with the brushes. I couldn't find any other brush so I bought this and I'm happy with it. Sigma and a host of other lines do this exact style of generic brushes so if you're okay with this fact you should be alright to buy it and make use of it.
