which brush do you get wet?

[allan_willb]

Just wanted to know what brushes you guys use with mixing medium and pigments.I know that some brushes work better when they are wet and others don't.

Almost every....

I used my #190 with Mixing Medium and Pure White pigment some days ago for the Doll challenge!

I loove to use my 222 with MM to enhance the metallic aspects in Goldbit e/s! Awesome!!!

And of course every eyeliner brush!

I don't feel like I need to use my #219 wet because it does give me an intense effect without MM!


IMHO all brushes can get wet because you clean them with water (which apparently makes them wet anyways

so there should be no damage so whatever to them!
Just make sure not to wet the handle!


Btw do you try to find a Culturebloom DVD just for me?

I can tell you that my 239 does not like to be wet and apply e/s or pigments. It almost refuses to pick up the color!

228 love it a good MM bath!

Generally the stiffer the brush the better it seems to work when wet. At least for me. Like 249 ....it doesn't have to be super stiff just no as loose as the 239 or 222.

Usually when I use Pigments and shadows wet, it's for my lid or a liner. For my lid, I love using either the 242 or the 236 (dc'd) with MM, and for wet liner I like the 266. They all have rather stiff bristles, which I find helpful for this purpose.

The only brush I use to apply eyeshadow wet is #263, as a liner.

I only wet my 242 and 252 ... I've tried it with the 239 as well, but experienced the same thing as 'Nessa - it didn't really pick up any colour. So I'm also just wetting my brushes with denser bristles.
