My Elf Powder Brush

This brush can be used with wet or dry products. You can use this with powder or blush. This is also perfect for contouring. -Directions: Dip brush in powder and tap off excess powder before use. -Care Instructions: Clean this brush regularly with the Elf brush cleanser and shampoo. This helps maintain color application. Then reshape your brush and let dry. If you do not have the cleanser and shampoo, it's ok.
