Update: This brush has been out of stock for a while (I guess it was just overwhelmingly popular!^-^), but Kate says that it should be back in stock before the month is out, so if anyone has been lemming this brush you'll soon get a chance to nab one! Also don't forget that the EDS code has been reactivated through the end of the month--- it's EDS10. I'm still loving mine and I've been using it for both my mineral make up and my silk dust.

Oh my, Liz, you've got me so intrigued! Just as long as you don't buy and recommend some $1000 skincare product, I'll be okay! Laughing I'm definitely going to order the #25 brush. And most likely the concealer (eye liner) brush as well... The fact that you can use the Alima makeup with this brush to cover your red marks sounds amazing. I also spend TOO much time applying my darn concealer! I would love to find a faster way!

I really wanted to get this brush but unfortunately it's out of stock until the end of the month - should I just hold off or has anyone tried/compared it to the Glominerals/Mineral Fusion Ultra/Flawless brush or the True Cosmetics brush?

I definitely say hold off--- it's sooo worth the wait. I just got a kabuki from Lumiere for travel that's nice enough (review forthcoming), but it's definitely nowhere near as luxurious as the Alima, IMO.

Just wanted to say that I finally got this brush and it really is as luxurious as Manslayerliz (and everyone else) makes it sound! I am probably going to go ahead and order 1 of each of the rest of the brushes they offer, just so I'm not missing out on anything else. Smile

I don't believe they are in stock-I was recently placing a reorder and inquired about the brush. Kate offered me 'seconds' (from what I understand there were a couple #25 brushes that weren't 'first quality' as they had allegedly been laying against their cases making one side smushed-for 12.50) and I jumped at the offer. My brush came with the rest of my order but wasn't smushed at all! Very Happy

Now before anyone floods her with orders for 'seconds', I don't believe there were many to begin with, so you are probably better off just inquiring about the availability of the first quality brush and I would imagine she would make the same offer if there are any still available.

I have an unopened one that I think I won't need and am willing to sell it to our member since the brush is now out of stock. I got it with a 10% discount. Please PM me if anyone wants to have it. Wink

OMG Olyn, what an awesome deal! You are sooo lucky! I hope that the brushes come back in stock soon--- I want to get another blush brush with my next order...
