Three Essential Brushes Poll

[Ella_]

If I were shipwrecked on a desert island I sunblock would be number one priority

Brushes umm

187 - we all know why.
272 - for packing on colour and blending
266 - for lining and my brows.

I am shipwrecked in the Mediterranean... between hot make-out sessions with the Greek God I found on the island, I do my makeup. The brushes I have are:

- 219. So versatile, great for contouring and lining.
- 275. Great for blending, applying, packing on colour. I love this thing.
- 187. Because this brush makes me go from simple to stunning in two seconds flat.

hmm...187 (multi-use face)
217 (blender, concealer, application of eye color/base)
and...219 (crease, outer corner, smudging, + lash line)

<~~~~~~~Just bought a 239 brush, you guys are a bad influence!

Here's my pick:

Face: 187 brush. No questions asked. I'm pretty sure the locals in the island I am stranded on will adore this brush too!

Eyes: 217. (Er, I'm torn between the 217 and the 224

). This is good for highlighting (both the browbone and inner corner), applying e/s as a wash, creasework, blending.

Other: 182. Love this as much as I love my 187. Awesome for foundation. Besides, if I get too lonely, I can just sit on the shore and pet my 182 brush!

[ichnusa]

Face: 187 for blush/foundation
Eye: 182 Kabuki for powder and MSFs
Other: 219 for eyeshadow/contouring and lining.

Damn. I suck at any kind of poll which limits my makeup usage!!!

1. #266-Liner, brows, lip
2. #259-I could do a whole eye with that and shade the outer v w/ #266 mentioned above
3. #109-Good for contouring, liquid foundation, powder, blush

Oh, wait. What's this? How about that! I happened to have a #182 in my pocket when the ship went down! Oh thank God. Now I don't have to choose one face brush. Yeah, so I guess I have 4 brushes.

Well, it is a fantasy and all....

 

[daisydeadpetals]

187 - perfect for msfs and blush!
266 - makes lining oh so easy
182 - love! I don't know how I lived without it for so long =)

 

[duch3ss25]

i'll have 187 for the face, 217 for the eyes and 219 for lining & smudging as well as defining the brow in this scenario.

 

[hull_d]

I guess I'll have to be slightly different and go with:
- face #188
- eyes #272 does everything from packing on the lid to crease and blending
- other #266 lining and brows

 

[geeko]

Face (blush, powder): 129
Eyes: 242 (very versatile can apply both pigments and e/s)
187 (ha...only cause this is so expensive ....lol)

 

[MisStarrlight]

109 & 208....and that's about it (if I absolutely had to pick an eye brush, I'd go with the 239)

I've gotten to the point were that if I'm not working, I don't wear anything but face stuff, brows, eyeliner & mascara.
