MAC BRUSHES I USE EVERYDAY

Mac brushes are really wonderful. They are a bit pricey, but I try to get them when I can. I always end up spending on the collections because they're are so many. This gives little $$$ for the brushes.

TOP-BOTTOM Mac 187se, 190se, 224se, 217, 252se

I use these everyday. I think a brush is versatile. Play around to see the effects each brush has.

This how I use my brushes:

187 brush: foundation application, bronzer & bright colored brushes go on light & not intense color in one spot.

190 brush: foundation & I use it for concealer under the eye. It pats the concealer on without wiping it away

117 & 224: all over eyes application, crease application, really blends the color out to make everything look smooth. Sometimes I use the 117 for concealer also. It's soft & gently blends the concealer

252: Highlight application all over eye color & eyeliner.

How do you use your brushes? What's your favorite brush & brand? What Mac brush is a good one to get next?

one day I'd like to get a Mac brush! Right now I use a bunch from everywhere, NYX, Sonia Kashuk (they suck, at least the white handle ones, they get "frizzy" after washing even after I put hair condition in the wash lol), and some Lancome ones I got from a GWP haha and a Maybelline one (when they still made brushes, its diesel even after years of washes and use!). How do you wash them? Maybe you can do a post about that, I'd love to get some insight! :)

I'm not really one to use make up brushes because I don't really know how to use them,and I'm so busy in the morning that I don't have time to use them.But I'm really happy to see this post in your blog! Now I have some idea on what to buy and what to use it for! Thanks!

MAC brushes are extremely expensive in Poland, I don't own any of them :( But I like Sephora brushes, I have only 2 brushes but they are good :)

@Lipstick on the cup I have been wanting to try sephora brushes. I hear good things.

the 187 is my absolute fav. i use that daily and it does wonders for foundation application :) i want to get the 190 i think that would be good for concealing instead of my 191 i think thats what the brsh number is lol
