The Hakuhodo 210 Blush Brush ($36) is a dense, blush brush with a round brush head, made with fine goat hair. Its a great brush for sheer blushes and bronzers. The dense brush head also makes it the perfect brush to buff and blend excess color.
Hakuhodo's 210 brush has the right weight and although super dense at first, it gets better with use - the bristles splay just a tad after washing, but it feels just as soft. I love to use this with sheer blushes that struggle to show up on my skin with a regular blush brush. That said, I won't recommend it with any of the more pigmented blushes - it can end up looking a little patchy, especially on dry skin. On the plus side, its a fantastic brush to buff out excess color as the end result is a more soft looking airbrushed finish. The 210 Blush Brush is compared a lot to the MAC 109, which I've not tried myself, but going by the description, it does seem like a similar brush. I've washed it quite a few times and haven't had any issues with shedding (which is apparently an issue with this brush, for the first couple of washes). Overall, while not a must-have, its really nice to have and perfect for sheer blushes, bronzers and even blends out cream blushes beautifully!
