187 Brush

Can the 187 brush be used for powder and powder foundations, I know a lot of you use it on your MSF's but I kinda missed out on it. I'm planning on buying the 187 for blush/bronzing/shading but I'm curious to know if it can also be used for powders..

Thanks in advance

i use it with my Lancome Dual finish- it works great.
I have 2 187s- one for Dual Finish and 1 for blushes/msf's/bronzers.

I use it with my Studio Fix and it's really nice!! Especially since I use two different shades of SF right now (C25 and C40) it makes them sheer so the color is mixed.

i have just started using my MSF for studio fix powder and loose blot powder. i don't know why it never dawned on me to try doing so before, but it works amazingly well! the 187 works perfectly on just about every powder or liquid face product. just make sure to keep the brush clean between product switches, or things could come out looking kind of muddy.

I use it with my loose powder. it's awesome! it picks up the perfect amount of powder, making it look really natural. AND it's awesome to use with a liquid such as: select spf 15/hyper real/select tint. I've also seen other ma's at my counter using it to blend out creams such as the studio stick foundation. This brush is awesome!

one great thing i noticed- when i started using 187 with my pressed powder i'm now able to finish the whole compact. Before 187, when i was using their puff, the oils from my face got trasnferred to the powder and it would get a hard film on the surface about 3/4 way in, so i would just toss it because it would get impossible to get a good color pay-off.

I actually use my 187 brush with practically all of my face products including cream and liquid textures. It's amazing with stick foundation and hyper real. Try it, I promise you'll love it!

I use it for my liquid foundation. It's the only way to keep my foundation on my face and not too dark.

I use it for applying MAC Mineralize Skinfinish, and sometimes blushes that are intense color for light application.

This beautiful make up artist told me that she uses the 187 to apply her liquid/creme type foundations as well.

eee I just got mine with the novel twist brush set which I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!!!!! I have used it with studio fix, blot powder, blushes, shooting star MSF, stila sun,mineral concealer, but I heard when used for liquid foundations, its AMazing. Haven't tried that yet.
 
I have 2 - one that I use for liquid products (blushcremes, foundations, etc) and the other one I use for msfs, bronzers and powder blushes

i have 2 as well. one for cream and liquid products, and one for dry, powder products. the first one i use primarily on blushcremes, studio fix fluid, studio tech foundation, and moistureblend foundation. the second for MSFs, natural MSF, loose bronzing powder, and powder blushes.
