I recieved my Alima mineral samples today (shipping was only 2 days!
) and it applied the foundation flawlessly! I'm very impressed. It's better than my Sephora bronzer brush.

Ya, Quo has a pretty extensive brush collection for what it is, all they're missing is a kabuki.
Though, I work at Shoppers, and I was putting up price labels today, and I ran into one that said "Quo Kabuki" for $20 (I think? Or was it $22. I don't really remember at all). Anyways, I couldn't find it, and there's nothing about it on the website either... but why have a price label for it?
I think I'm going to ask a cosmetician about it, and if they actually do exist I'm def going to run and test them out!!

The only kabuki I've tried is one by Japonesque, and it's ok, but it's a pain in the arse to clean. I would love to try the new kabuki that MUFE put out with its HD collection, that thing was so damn soft!

Sorry for the late response.
I have the Italian Badger one. I have a friend with the deluxe one as well and she said she liked it.

I love my MAC kabuki. But if you want a low price kabuki until your budget allows the MAC brush, try the ECOTOOLS travel size mineral brush set ($10- $14). I really like the small size and softness of the mini kabuki that comes with the set. The other brushes in the set are nice and worthwhile too. You can purchase it at Target or AMAZON.COM. The baby kabuki lacks density but is good for finishing powders that don't require a lot of vigorous buffing.
BTW ... I dislike the BE kabuki. It's a bit rough on the face.
UPDATE ... Everyday Minerals flat top brush is wonderful. It's soft, dense and very afforable

The best kabuki i've tried is the MAC 181 brush. It's soft and applies powder beautifully. It's also very portable
and verryy soft.
My second favorite is the 182. I also really like MUFE's HD kabuki for applying liquid foundation.
EM's brushes are really soft, but I feel they're not the best at applying/blending powder. They seem to drag against the skin and it just doesn't feel like it's buffing in the powder properly.

My favourite's the 182. Next in line would be the Ecotools retractable kabuki! It's more comparable to the 181 though, but it does a great job and it's super soft and cheap!
