I've been using the Lumiere Kabuki for about a week now, and count me in as one of its fans! It feels like silk, soooo soft, with great coverage and hasn't shed yet!

now I'm thinking the handy buki since my full size brush is too big to swirl in the lids

everyday minerals premium kabuki!

Of all of the "buki" brushes that Bare Minerals offers, the Baby Buki is my favorite - probably why I have three of them! Those brushes buff right into the nooks and crannies of the face and the result is amazing. They travel well, too!

I use and love my flat top from Lauress. I have the kabuki from Lumiere but haven't used it yet and I also did their pre-order special for the brush set and 2 flat tops.

I like the BE Handy Buki. I tried the regular kabuki and I just couldn't get good control with the short handle. I hope someday they put out a kabuki with a long handle that's as full and lush as a traditional kabuki.

Hi!

Anybody has a "itty bitty" brush?
I think they are called flat top brushes
I heard that the coverage would be better than a kabuki brush..
I have a kabuki from carla and in her shop there is also a itty bitty brush.
I`m not sure if i should place an order...
Anyone has both brushes? Is the coverage really better with this brush?

Thanks!

sorry for my maybe confusing english.. i`m from austria

Ok I have a flat top brush actually, but kabuki gives better coverage.

Some ladies on mineral makeup mania use a powder brush or a flat top brush to apply their MMU. I am starting to also because I am doing better with a powder brush. I don't like buffing the minerals into my face and it seems to take forever to get the minerals on my face (multiple layers). Its a lot quicker with the powder brush and it looks nice too.

Thanks

Do you use the flat top for blending or finish powder?

maryfitz24 · 02-22-2007, 09:30 AM

I've used both the kabuki and flat top brush to apply my minerals. I like the flat top a little better. I like the coverage and the "no buffing". I still use the kabuki at times but much prefer the flat top brush for foundation. For finishing powder, I use MAC 187.
