I'm going to disagree on a few points here. First sponges are so inexpensive and you can use a new one with each application. I prefer using sponges. Bacteria can also grow on brushes and powder puffs so washing them is the best idea and you can use baby shampoo or any inexpensive cleanser to wash your brushes, sponges, or puffs. As for using your fingers, makeup artist Bobbi Brown uses hers and recommends it as it warms up the foundation and concealers so yes, you can use your fingers as well.
I saw how you used the stippling brush. Just wanted to get you at tip on how to use it. You should not swirl the brush around. As the name says: stippling brush...you should just stipple it around and not swirl, its just destoying the nice finish you get from just stippling. Hope this helps, try it! You will see a difference, it will be that airbrushed look. :)
Go to costco and buy the Borghese 8-brush set over there for 25 bucks. It has a stippling brush and it does a good job for applying both blush and foundation... just without the steep price tag.
so the 187 can be used for foundation, powder and blush consecutively? Do you wash it after every use? I'm about to buy this, so excited! But scared won't know what to do, it'll be my first mac brush ever!!
If you're going to use the 187 for more than one product, ie., foundation AND blush, I would suggest washing it after each use. I mean that would make sense, right? *lol* However I prefer to have one 187 for each type of product; one for foundation and one for blush.
I LOVE my Northern Light. I didn't want it at first but my friend thought it was beautiful on me and talked me into it. Im sooo glad I did, I use it almost every day now.
Lots of potential bacteria can grow on the sponges. thats how a lot of break outs occur. By using the same sponge over and over. The oil from your face to the compact and wiping it back on your face. Its a cycle.
Man you ladies put way too much time into looking good, I mean a man basically combs his hair, applies what deoderant, brushes his teeth, ofcourse all this after a shower (sometimes). I do think it is nice of pursebuzz to put this on youtube for young girls or boys to access and learn quickly how to apply makeup.
I dont like to put on foundation or powder on my face, my skin is very clear. I ususally just throw on some mascara, chapstick, and eyeliner but the foundation you used in this video looks really natural, where can you get it?
I don't see why you couldn't use whatever colors you want -- it's different for everyone.. I think she's just letting everyone know what colors she's using.
this cam isn't as good as the other one, in the old video's i could see your makeup, and your face, and your tools clearly. you have a great application, i just can't see it
You're not suposed to use the stippling brush that way

what's better for the application of foundation- a regular foundation brush or the stippling brush?
iheartboybands 3 years ago
It depends on if you want a lighter or heavier application
Heavy app- Foundation Brush
Lighter app- Stippling

why cant we use liquid for natural bristles?

u can but it will be a very sheer application. Natural bristles absorb the product, where as synthetic brushes don't.
