    That Wosty is very nice. Love the gradual widening of the blade.

    Sweet looking Wostie. I would be interested to know how the FS synthetic compares to a Muhle synthetic. The Olive wood looks good too on the brush handle.

    Thanks for getting my curiosity up on your FS synthetic brush and I now have an answer to my question. Love the new synthetic brushes so I think I will wait for Simpsons new Chubby 2 synthetic to be introduced shortly.

    Gorgeous Wostenholm! After a proper cleaning it will look absolutely wonderful! So much better than the plastic-thingy and you know what I mean!
    Now we are talking!
    Where did you get it?

    Chubby synth is a little expencive as the first new-gen brush.
    I've read good things on chinese Pur-Tech, and this combinations is very fashinating to me.
    BTW next semester, when Simpson will release the new brush, I'm courious to see what is this.

    It seems they changed packaging and maybe they also increased quantity. I have two tubs of an old batch - I guess I bought them about two years ago - and I heard they recently changed the formula. Did you hear about that? Maybe you can post the INCI of the ones you bought so we can make comparisons?
