Indispensable. Brush & Dispenser in One by Indian Earth

The product itself is GREAT. I've used Indian Earth since the 1970s; however, the last time I ordered this item in brush form, it came with a plastic cover to protect and keep the brush area clean. This time, there was no cover which allows for debris in my makeup bag to attach to the brush. Also, without a cover on the brush area, the brush will lose its shape very quickly. Hence, I am not pleased with my purchase.
