I have VERY sensitive skin & had heard this brush referred to on this board as being very soft. OMG, were you guys right!!!
All of the mineral brushes that I have tried in the past have been from BE & when my skin is acting up they feel like they're scratching my skin, especially when I have to buff in the minerals. OUCH!!! People with normal skin may not have a problem, but mine has been very tender lately.
I just received the "Luscious" Delectable Kabuki brush from Aromaleigh in the mail yesterday and I am in LOVE!!! 
It's about the same size/shape as the BE Kabuki, but is much softer. It was $28, and when you order from their site they include free samples of eyeshadows. I do remember reading that they don't ship overseas, though. 
Anyway, just wanted to share my great experience with this brush with you guys. It's great for us sensitive-skinned folks!  |

| Is this brush similar to the Jane Iredale Handi in softness? |

I haven't felt the JI Handi, but I know that gets rave reviews too. I'll feel the Handi next time I'm in the beauty supply store.
In the meantime, has anyone tried both? |

Carrie - what am I going to do with you?!!!!
If you can BELIEVE it, I know, get ready to gasp, I have not tried the JI handi. However, I have tried other kabuki's that claim to be soft - and AL's has them beat hands down. It is soooo very soft and gentle. Actually, AL just added a bunch of new brushes to their line up, which I accidentally bought a few of, and they are wonderful.
However, knowing how top drawer JI's products are, I would assume that her handi would be on par with AL's.
I'll double check on the MMU board and see what I can find out!
