I don't own an angled blush brush, but I know that they are amazing for contouring, and applying blush at just the right spot. I was really excited when I read that the brush hairs are indeed "animal friendly synthetic bristles". I love when companies keep the well being of animals in mind. The brush feels very sturdy, and I like that the bristles are tightly packed in the ferrule. I also love how the bristles feel super soft against my cheeks. Because the bristles are synthetic, it allows for a superb blending experience. 

This blush brush picks up just the right amount of product and voila', blushing and contouring has never been easier. It practically does the work for you, since you don't have to work so hard to blend the product into your skin. Even the brightest of blushes don't have anything on this Renewal Angled Blush Brush. You get the most natural-looking color, that never looks overdone. Another great thing is that the bristles have not shed a single hair! They are still all in tact.
