Your video confirms my suspecion from all the videos on here about brushes. They Are not so much about what you need or like, but to show off the whole collection. Brushes is so much an indvidual thing, and what you love, might be something I hate.
you can actually use the 231 brush,that tiny flat with rounded top one, for gel eyeliner~it is good toapply gel eyeliner on your upper lash line,if u want some more detailing work~
I so wanna have all your brushes! haha. For that one brush that you said was harsh, I think you should try washing it with baby shampoo (Johnsons Johnsons) coz there was one brush of mine that was really harsh but once I used the baby shampoo it became really soft and smells really good. Maybe you'll end up liking the brush after you use the baby shampoo. Hope this helps (:
i have, i just prefer the 187. the 109 works fine but i find that it creates streak lines more often then 187, so i have to spend more time blending it out. on the other hand, the 187 i just stipple onto my face. gives me an airbrushed look and blends easily.
"i take the pain and put my powder on"..lol..that made me giggle..yea, my 150 does get scratchy, especially when i don't wash it after A LOT of uses..
I totally understand what you mean about the 150 brush, it use to scratch my face. What i do is, wash the brush,put abit of conditioner on it and let it sit for 2 or 3 minutes and rinse off, the brush is actually really soft, wont prick your face. Only problem is when you use it once and the powder goes on that brush and sits in there, the next time you use it, it will start to scratch your face up again lol.
to heck with it, i'm gonna try conditioner on my brush LOL! hopefully it will do the trick... i might just have to wash it every time i take a shower lol
Exactlly lol. Its like, you get the mail, and you just open the front door, and you get so hot, and sweat, its like okay, time for nap. Cause the heat exhausts me.
lol you're so funny & cute! "my long list of things im going to marrry" love your videos! maybe you could condition your 150 brush? i've heard of people doing that before. & i agree with you white bristled brushes are softer to me also.
my 150 is the same way and I love it for bronzer but hate that it's kinda pokey. And yes I use my own hair conditioner for it, and still no luck. =/ And YEA! It's so hot in Texas dangit! (Houston here)
i do like it for applying shadow to my liner, especially on the lower lashline when i want a finer line. i also like it for my brows. i just like the 209 better for eye liner, it gives me better control.
Your 138? brush is the same as my 129. It feels kind of pokey when I apply my blush, it's only soft after I've washed it with shampoo. I think it may feel prickly because it's dirty? At least that's when mine hurts.
I dont know why but for some reason, all my mac brushes that have the black goat hair loose so many hairs. I cannot even use my 109 because I literally have thirty strands of hair on my face everytime I try and use it.
The 187 and 188 I only use for blush. For the face I either use the 190 or I use the dior face brush
aw you are too sweet :) on my lips i'm wearing MAC peachstock lipstick. cheeks i think were NARS laguna bronzer as a contour, NARS orgasm for blush & a beauty powder from MAC for highlight :)

So i guess you just have to wash it more often.
