I recently purchased the Ecotools Bamboo Powder Brush at my local Shoppers Drugmart for about $8.00. I didn't want to buy an expensive brush to try out some new bronzer (even though this is a powder brush it works perfectly!) For the price it is an amazing tool, with soft, full bristles that don't fall out and allow even application. Although you do get what you pay for when it comes to make up brushes - this is an excellent value for the results.
