I don't really know a lot about brushes, but I have a really old estee lauder brush & beauty blender that I use for everything :/

Anyways, I just bought the Urban decay good karma optical foundation brush and I need tips :)

I absolutely love this brush. you can use it for liquid or powder (I use it with liquid) make sure you clean often that way its not so hard to clean it. also with too much product build up it will make the bristles stick together and create lines in foundation. to clean them you can use brush cleanser, baby shampoo, normal antibacterial soap or make your own. there is lots of diy for this on here. you also want to make sure you keep the brush pointed down (bristles pointed at the floor) while cleaning and drying. you don't want water dripping into the handle or it will mess with the glue and cause the bristles to fall out. for whatever reason this brush seems to dry slower than most of my others though so keep that in mind as well.

I LOVE THIS BRUSH! Love it, love it, looooove it! So worth it. It's a pain in the butt to clean but it's awesome at making your foundation look flawless.

@Delaney ; thanks, I would of washed it and left it in its container (standing up), but now I know (:
@Megan ; Omg!, the brush sheds easily??

No! The brush does NOT shed! And you can get it wet up to the handle, what you don't want to do is leave it soaking or sitting in water up to the handle, but that's true with any brush.

I have never used a foundation brush-is it worth it? I apply most foundation in center/ t- zone and chin and then blend out the remainder.

Personally I think it is better, but some people prefer using their hands or sponges.
