My Jumbo Chisel Powder Brush soft sable paddle brush makes powder applications flawless and diffused.  It's a quality brush to apply and blend bronzers, blushes, translucent powders as well as all over face powders. It is six inches long with black lacquered handle.  Everyone should have a great powder brush in their makeup tool bag and this one is an excellent choice. It fits well in your hand and is comfortable to use.  The price is ultra affordable, too.  With proper care,  this brush will hold up for a long time. If bristles start to shed or bristles break, it’s time for a new one  

For a Deep cleaning: Just shampoo with warm water and dry on a paper towel hanging over the side of a sink to dry downward, if possible).   (So the inner stem of the brush can dry quickly) or use my Instant Brush Cleaner in for between shampoos.  ~ Jill
