I’m surprised by the low ratings for this brush. I got mine in a special offer from The Shopping Channel in Canada so it represents really good value. I think it’s important to recognize that this brush is meant pretty much as a blending brush on the fluffy end, so expecting it to be shaped for crease definition is a mistake. For what it is – a fluffy blending brush – it is terrific and paired with a slightly darker than your skin tone shadow, you will be able to blend out darker shades beautifully. The “smudger” end is softer than a lot of similar type brushes but not so soft as to be ineffective. But what’s nice is that it isn’t harsh or so stiff as to be scratchy. This brush is meant to be “no tug”, hence the name, and it’s meant for giving a soft, airbrushed application! But it is still an effective and useful brush. As with all dual ended brushes (including a pricey one I have from Stila) storing it is a bit of a pain and, yes, it would be great if it came with a cover for each end (or even one end) for storing upright (mine had covers on both ends but they were the factory type which, once removed, can’t be replaced.
Anyway, all in all, I think this is a really nice brush for gentle application and blending of colours. I don’t for a second buy IT’s claims that this is “the first ever age preventive eye shadow brush” and I think such silly claims really do make a company (even a good one like IT) look bad.
UPDATE: Aug. 2015 – Now that I’ve had this brush a few months, I just have to rave about how good it is. The flat shadow end is absolutely the BEST brush I own for blending/buffing out the harsh edges of a mid-toned or darker eyeshadow – better than the MAC 217 or 224 or any of the other brushes I own. While it doesn’t have the expected “blending brush” shape (it’s shaped more like a MAC 239), it works like a dream. I suspect it’s a combination of the softness of the bristles combined with the density – it’s quite tightly packed. Anyway, this is now the brush I reach for to soften the edges of just about any shadow(s) I apply.

I wish these two ended brushes came with some kind of protection device for travel or even for use at home. Who wants every brush lying on its side or rolling off the counter?
Sometimes those tiny toothbrush covers will fit over the bristles, tho.

I don’t know how I wound up with this brush, but it is possible it was part of a set I got on QVC, but I see it is available at Ulta for $24. I definitely did not purchase it separately, as I do not like double-ended brushes. I store my brushes in a cup, so that means one end of the brush is getting crushed. I find that the eyeshadow application side of the brush is too big and clumsy for my normal-sized lids. It’s also too dense for my undereye, and not good for blending because the bristles are too densely packed. The liner brush side is too thick to apply liner precisely to either the top or lower lid, and I find that it’s a little bit sharp.

This brush is aptly named–the eyeshadow end does indeed feel both “heavenly” and “luxurious” on the skin. I find myself just swiping it around my eye area simply for the sheer enjoyment of feeling it against my skin…it is that soft!
Not only are the soft bristles nice to fondle 😛 but I found that they do an amazing job blending my eyeshadows. The softness of the bristles combined with the perfect length (they don’t have too much give but just the right amount of stiffness to distribute the shadow smoothly) and shape (rounded) and density (very full!) are just the perfect combination for blending shadows.
However, reasons I did not give the brush 5 lippies are because:
1) I do not like the smudge end. The bristles on this end are too long, thick, and soft (way too much give) to do any effective smudging. I also tried using it to apply eyeshadow as an eyeliner both below bottom lashes and on upper lash line but found it too wide and thick for my liking. It may be good for a smoky eye look when you want a wider application but I have other brushes that could do this just as effectively so would have rather paid a cheaper price for just the blending end. Hopefully, I find a use for this end.
2) The circumference of the blending brush head is a tad bit too big when trying to use it to apply eyeshadow to the crease–and I have a rather large crease area with deep set eyes. For the price ($24 at Ulta) it would’ve been nice for it to be multi-functional. The frugal girl in me was tempted to just go with the MAC #217 that I was trying out at the same time because the 217 is so much more versatile but I just couldn’t part ways with that luxurious softness. (so I ended up telling my husband he just purchased my birthday present early instead of choosing just one brush).
In short, I love the blending end of this brush and the pros vastly outweigh the cons for me.
