Yup I'm definitely getting some of the MUFE aqua liners! Now that I've started purchasing from Dior, Chanel and Guerlain my MAC addiction has slightly decreased hhmm lets see if thats the case in July! Lol! I also want to get my first MAC brush, I think I'll start with the 129...

oohh the 129 is a great brush but my fave mac brush is the 182 kabuki as well as the 239

Thanks I shall check them out Hopefully Debenhams have a 10% off sale sometime next month! The Kabuki is crazy expensive!

I bought the kabuki last year in Heathrow duty free. Definitely one of the most expensive brushes I own, but it's well worth the investment!

The 239 is definitely my most used brush. That, and my 187. I've recently discovered just how good the 219 is as well.

I'm still wondering how best to use my162 LOL

 

[Alisha1]

Yeah I've heard loads of great things about the Kabuki and if Flighty is the only MAC collection next month I'll hopefully be able to afford a few brushes I own two inexpensive kabuki brushes and I can't use them without half the brush shedding! I really need to invest in some makeup brushes!

I have loads of MAC brushes, but I have to admit that I prefer Crown brushes - so much cheaper and very little difference in quality, with many dupes. If you're just starting with a brush collection, I'd try those brushes first to see what kind of styles you like.. MAC is too expensive to make mistakes with.. (130 I'm looking at you. Stupid brush. )

Love-makeup do Crown Brushes http://www.love-makeup.co.uk/crown-brush-m-56.html

I use their actual website. People seem to think it only exists in the US, but it doesn't. www.crownbrush.co.uk
Minimum order is £15, shipping is £5 (but I believe its half price atm). But I have to admit, their shipping is pretty damn worth it, I've had orders placed at 3pm one day, and the following morning it arrived!

The badger brushes are definitely the best.. especially IB108.

 

[anita22]

I believe there's also a Crown UK site, though I've never ordered from it: http://www.crownbrush.co.uk/

thanks guys! i'll be looking into them now!

check out a rather personal blog post from me - Lou’s Specktra Story

Oh poo

That means 3 sleeps

I thought I had time to get married and go on honeymoon and get home again before they released semi precious on me!!!!

i am afraid to say i disagree with the statement about crown brushes

i have had crown brushes and was never satisfied

my mac brushes are miles better

but that's just my opinion !

they are better value for money i suppose, but nothing can replace my 224, 214 and 219.. i also love my 109 and the 188 and 187 type brushes are just far superior from mac, and i personally love the 130 for cream blush and foundation!

The best thing about Crown brushes is there inexpesive - think I'll try both to make up my mind

I'm going to ring a few MAC stores this week to confirm the date of Semi-Precious - I seriously wish its not this month simply because I want so much!

 

[banana1234]

i think some brushes are good(the badger ones for the face) , but for me the main eye brushes are no good. their version of the 224 is not very good! hope you have fun picking your brushes
