The first two new brushes are the Tapered Sculpting Face Brush and the Large Mineral Brush (pictured above), both have bamboo handles and totally synthetic bristles, which EDM is known for. The Tapered Sculpting Face Brush (retails for $12, on special now for $9) is a dome-shaped and multi-functioning, intended to be used for contouring, highlighting and blending mineral face powders. The shape of this looks really cool, almost like the egg-shaped MAC brush, but round instead. I may have to order this one, but I am going to read up some reviews before I take the plunge and since it's new-ish, there aren't many around.
The Large Mineral Brush (retails for $14, on special for $11) looks like the EDM long-handled kabuki but with a longer handle, and a tad rounder. This brush doesn't excite me as much, but it's cool too.
Next is this crazy looking Japanese-inspired, Itahake Brush (sells for $15, and currently out of stock). This brush has a flat surface with round edges, and is described as being "the perfect artisan brush to go along with your favo(u)rite face brushes." I personally don't know how I would use this other than maybe contouring? It looks really cool though and totally unique.
What do you guys think of these brushes?

I used to love EDM but I haven't bought any in ages, not since the owner went all weird. And do we really need to see pictures of her on EVERYTHING? My last couple of orders even had postcards with pictures of her on them!
The forum was removed by the owner, there's another one set up somewhere but I'm afraid I don't have the URL. I looked at it once and it was just a lot of endless moaning about how crap EDM is now and I couldn't be bothered.
@Dee - I know right, her pictures are everywhere, I guess it's nice to put a face to the brand, and she actually uses the products too. The forum was one of the nice things about this company, being able to interact with other fans, that sucks that they got rid of it. I am not interested in their foundations anymore, but the brushes look cool.
