This summer I got a couple of blushes in brighter colors than I usually wear, probably to compensate for my utter sun avoidance and high SPF regimen. I soon realized that my favorite blush brushes- all of them full, fluffy and quite large- are not ideal when such colors are involved.
A more limited and precise blush application calls for a flatter brush, and the No. 7 Le Pinceau Joues from Chanel has proven to do a perfect job. It's soft and pleasant on the skin, picks up the exact amount of color and gives me the right look. The brush feels great in my hand, very balanced and easy to use. It comes in a nice velvet pouch (I like these pouches when I load my Chanels into a train case) and is made of 100% natural hair (so don't use it on cream blushes. Those do better with synthetic brushes).
Bottom line: An excellent tool, worth the price.
Chanel Le Pinceau Joues blush brush no. 7 ($46) is available from your local Chanel counter and chanel.com.
