Re: MAC New View Discussion
The brush looks like a #190 foundation brush in shape. The differences seem to be:
- The 190 is synthetic, which is better for emollient products, whereas this new brush appears to be natural fibre (which makes sense, as it is being launched with a powder product).
- This new brush appears to have a looser bundle of fibres, which makes sense as it is being launched with powder products). Looser fibres will allow for easier blending.

Sorry if this has already been asked but how much coverage do you get from this?
And I know the ingredients or whatever haven't been released (I think) but does anyone know if this will break you out? I never have good luck with MAC foundation but I want to try this!

first off, this isn't a foundation. its a sheer-medium coverage powder, depending on the brush you use. the non-shimmery side is the regular MSFN. not sure if the shimmery side is a regular MSF or a different formula, but its probably the same minus the veining.
some people have said that they break out or itch when using the MSF and MSFN, so it just depends on your skin.

Thank you!
I'll probably skip on this one. All the better though, more money for the other amazing collections

Eh, I could see myself using one of these as a bronzer, so I guess it's not really an issue for me after all that there's no "light".

I am not a huge fan of the 190 so I hope that I like the 189 better for foundation. Does anyone know what the difference is?

by the looks of it, its made of natural fibers, so it can't be used for foundation, just powders. if you don't like the 190, try the 191. i hate the 190 now that the 191 is out.

Re: MAC New View Discussion
I dislike the #190 as well. For foundations, I prefer the #188 or #109. I like to use the #191 for a sharp contour line at the cheek bone. Once you blend it out, it looks totally natural and gives you great depth. When I use the #191 to contour, I generally contour with MAC's Cherche blushcreme (now DCd) or Tarte's Cheek Stain in Sunkissed. Trust me....gorgeous.

Re: MAC New View Discussion
You know, as I look at the new 189 brush, I am questioning whether or not it is natural fibres. At first glance, it appears natural, but as I look closer, it looks awfully close to the synthetic #223 and #169 from the Icon: Racquel collection. Those brushes were synthetic, but meant to mimic natural fibre. They were good for blending, but not really great at picking up the product. If the new 189 is this same synthetic fibre, I question its ability to pick up/hold the MSF. I will be more than a bit bummed.

I think I'll be interested in the Light/Medium...I'll certainly swatch it, anyway...
