    I love my Mac 239 brush – it’s great! I also use a few Jemma Kidd brushes (depth brush for crease, brush for highlighting brow bone), Body Shop brush for blending, big powder brush and a Clinique blusher brush.

      Nice! I would never have thought to use the UD kabuki brush with MSFs!

    Every morning routine….

    190 (moisturiser), 187 (liquid foundation), 150 (powder on liquid foundation), 217 (for eyeshadow) and/or 266 (fluidline), 168 (contour cheeks with emote), 182 (blush).

    I love the 239 for packing colour but I rarely have time to do that… so I use the 217 as my all around eyeshadow brush since it blends beautifully! =D

    • Christine

      Wednesday, October 22, 2008

      I’ve never used the 150 for liquid foundation, interesting!

    Sonia Kashuk brushes for the eyes (small/large eyeshadow brush, and blending brush)
    MAC 266 (with fluidline)
    MAC 109, I fell in love with this brush! Even though it’s a small contour brush, I use it for my Mineralized Loose foundation. It’s really good for buffing!

    • Christine

      Wednesday, October 22, 2008

      How do you like the Sonia Kashuk brushes compared to MAC?

  13. Awilda

    Monday, October 20, 2008

    187 – Foundation mixed with my moisturizer
    coastal scents pink kabuki – Mineralize Skinfinish Natural
    129 – blush
    168 – Countour with Shadester/lightsweep

    239 – eyeshadow
    224- blending
    219 – smudge lower lashline pencil liner
    209 – fluidline

    I cant live without my 187 though! LUV IT!

    • Christine

      Wednesday, October 22, 2008

      Nice list, Awilda! Do you have to wash your 187 brush often since you use it with foundation mixed with moisturizer?

    MAC 187 or 109 for foundation (Studio Fix Fluid NC25)
    MAC 134 blush
    MAC 168 contour
    MAC 252 eyeshadow and paintpot
    MAC 208 fluidline
    …and also can u recommend me a perfect crease brush??.. i think the 224 its sooo big for my eyes.. im thinking 217 or 222…

    • Jessica

      Monday, October 20, 2008

      219 is really good to help define the crease. If 224 is a little too big you might want to go with 222. I rarely use my 217 for the crease but it works (but it’s as big as 224 in my opinion).

      • glamaryz

        Monday, October 20, 2008

        thank u jessica i will try 219 and 224 for blending!!! :)

    • Christine

      Wednesday, October 22, 2008

      217 is very popular :) That should work for you!

    Cant thank my sweet hubs enough for getting me my first brush set from MAC few Christmases ago.

    I don’t think I’d be able to do makeup without :

    Face – 129, 187, 168 and 194
    Eyes – 239 (fave of the lot!), 209 (great with the gel liner), 217 (best blending brush ever!), 219 (this is best used for smuding the lower lash line for that smoky effect), 224, 249 and 266 (great for the brows!)

    • Christine

      Wednesday, October 22, 2008

      Aww, what a sweetheart :)

      I really need to look into the 217 and 224. I don’t have either. I just use the 239 for anything eyeshadow!

    Tuesday, October 21, 2008

    Well, I plan to get the Costco brush set that comes out this year, and hopefully all three of the MAC brush sets coming out soon.. And maybe some NYX brushes and Everyday Minerals brushes..
    But otherwise, I only have 4 brushes, all by SPAresources which I got at Wal-mart. They’re pretty good. :)
    I have the concealer brush, medium eye shadow brush, small eye shadow brush, and eye contour brush, which I use all for eyes. :)
    I need more brushes, ahahah!
