So I need a blush brush? I have one that sucks and is hard and i just hate it. Which brand is the best for this. I would go to the MAC counter but I know they would tell me MAC is the best.

And while I'm with the brush thing, which brands are good for different things. The only good brushes I have are MAC 184, 266, 219, 224, 217, (i want 22 and def getting it), and i think that's it oh and one of the e/s ones (white one... i dont remember the #). Can someone help me find good brushes please. They dont have to be MAC just whatever would be the best. Thanks.

, I've never used an angled blush brush but some people prefer angled blush brushes I think!

Edit: On the website it says the angled one is good for contouring!

For a blush brush I love to use my MAC 187 but I also use the Ramy Blush brush The pic on Sephora is awful the hairs on the brush don't even look like that, they had better pic of it but put up that one just a few months ago. I can snap a pic of it for if you like. It's got a nice angle to it but not one that is too sharp. I don't like to use ones without the angle because my face is roundish and I need more definition. This brush is gentle on the face.
When I use either brush I use blend with the MAC 180.


As for brushes you must get the MAC 239! Great for "packing" on pigments. The 222 is great!
Pixi has a nice line of brush so does Sephora. I don't know if you have it already but the Sephora Bronzer brush is heaven for applying bronzer.
Now back to the eyes, Jude told me about this one. Sephora Large eye shadow brush It blends like a dream!!!

Just wanted to add that Paula Dorf has two great brush sets the Smart brush set and the Smart brush set 2. I want these so bad! My friend has both sets and I drool over them all them time. The Smart brush set is so great! She travels a lot and she is always raving about that set.

Like Zap2it said the MAC 239 is amazing. The MAs don't really tell you about this one but it really is a must. As I am sure if anyone reads my post they know that I love Bare Escentuals. And I know you are a new convert. Do you have the Maximum Coverage Concealer Brush? If you don't - get it! I love this brush! It is the BEST concealer brush I have ever used - hands down. Better than MAC. Better than anything. It is soft and smooth and it really grabs the color and deposits it beautifully. I used it for my BE concealer but I am going to start using it for my shadow. It's a synthetic brush and I think it's Taklon, I think. I also have the Sephora Bronzer brush and it's nice. Very soft. There is always the Bobbi Brown kabuki which I love. I use it for my BE foundation but you could definitely use it for bronzer or any kind of all over color. I just bought a fan brush at JoAnn craft store yesterday and I don't get why people don't use these more. It's another Taklon brush and it's so soft. I couldn't stop touching it. Anyway, I put on my Silver Dusk with it and it's perfect. It went on so smoothly and evenly and gave a nice concentration of color. It's my new favorite. I hope all my excited rambling helps.

I don't know how I lived so long without my 168 brush from MAC. I got the short one in the holiday set, and loved the shape so much i bougtht the fullsize, but there is just NO comparison. BUY IT TODAY!

Oh good! Than you are already hip to the good brushes. Let me know when you get more BE. I would love to know what you get and what you think. You have to try the eyeshadows and blushes. http://www.colorfulsprinkles.com/ is a good site to get samples so you don't have to buy full sizes!

Besides from MAC, I like Sonia Kashuk's brushes. I've been using them for years and I love them. They're cheap too

. Anyway, they're worth checking out in my opinion.

I have to agree re: the rec for Sonia Kashuk brushes from Target. You can't beat the quality for the price...I have some in my kit!
