Eye shader brush 03: Is it worth the price?

[elektra513]

Trying to take advantage of the free shipping going on right now on the Nars website, and I keep putting this brush in my shopping cart and taking it back out...I just keep looking at that $55 price tag. It's more expensive than the powder brush (which is also in my shopping cart).

Any one have this brush? In your opinion, is it worth the price?
(I also saw it on Ebay, but I typically don't buy my brushes from there )

Thanks!

No, it's way too big to really do anything with.

eek! that's a lot of $ for a commercial brush... I just looked at it and I would agree. I think it does not look like a good shader brush -- it might work well for apps.. but the shape is a bit difficult for shading. Try the MAC 219 for spot shading, and the 224 or 217 for blending. I use these two brushes all the time. You get better value for your $$..

Thanks, I have all the brushes you named already. I have large eyes, so I was looking at larger brushes for an allover wash. Y'all are right, if all I'll use it for is a wash, then I can find one cheaper, and I did! I just got a 227 and a Sephora large e/s brush ($20) silver handle. Same size as the Nars, but fluffier, so I can do more with it.

Thanks y'all!
