Brushes

[Ithica]

So, im already planning my next haul before my last ones even arrived!
Ill be in london in a week or so and Im looking to pick up 4/5 brushes, I am interested in perhaps two for shading on eyes and one blush.
Can you please tell me what brushes you use? for eyes/face/cheeks.

I already have a 217 but Im finding this abit big for detail in the crease.

129 - blush brush

224 for crease. 219 works as well too.
182 for powder. 187 for blush/foundation/msf.
i like the 168 for blush and contour.

I recommend the 272 (a small white-bristled angled brush) -- it is my favourite multitasker! WONDERFUL for shading, well-blended creasework, and overall blending of eyeshadow!

The 242 is an excellent shader/browbone highlighter, and I've had many MA's use it on me for creaswork too -- but I could never get my crease application right with this brush.

the 219 pencil brush is EXCELLENT for creasework and smudgework/imprecise lining for hot smokey eyes.

For blush, I LOVE the 188 (smaller version of the 187 skunk brush), as it serves wonderfully for both powder and cream formulations of blush.

i use the 116 for blush application n i love it
the 239 works well for shading the lid n picking up pigments!
