Silver Synth, most of the synthetic brush fibers, can be seen by observation to determine which is which and the performance characteristics behind them, but there are two types of appearance that can be easily confused: Silver Synth and Silvertip Fibre. Silver Synth is a relatively new synthetic Fibre, introduced as a shaving brush by Omega, and the main difference in appearance from Silvertip Fibre is that it is yellowish at the base and white at the tip, and is in sharp contrast. The Silver Synth is very soft, moderate in toughness but a little "bouncy" rather than stiff, and holds as much or even better water than a bristle brush, making it an excellent overall performance.
