Must Have: MAC Brushes

We all adore MAC especially their brushes.  MAC brushes are good in quality and are used by many people all over the world.  I always thought it was genius how MAC numbered their brushes.  Though MAC is not the only company who uses this method, it is great for those who can't remember the technical names of each brush.  So, this number system makes identifying their brushes so much easier. 

My favorite MAC brushes are #217, #239, #109 and the #168, but they are all a treasure.

MAC #239 Shader Brush $24.50
This is an excellent brush to use for packing color on your eyelid. 
Because the brush has stiff and dense bristles this enables you to grab more color and add intensity.  You may also use this brush to apply shadow onto your lower lashline 


MAC #217 Blending Brush $22.50,     This is my absolute favorite.  When I worked at MAC I always referred and sold this brush. This brush enables you to blend effortlessly more than one color this brush is very easy to use and again is a natural bristle brush which gives you better blending abilities with powders and creams.

MAC #224 Tapered Blending $30.00,   The ultimate blending brush this blends colors together exceptional well and brings the entire eye design together.  The shape of this brush gives you a light application of color. Remember-the longer the brush the lighter the application.  Also can use as a buffing brush, example;  applying liquid concealer under the eye.
MAC #208 Angled $19.50
Fills brows in beautifully and makes the perfect eyeliner brush.  Use this brush with your favorite gel eyeliner or use to apply a thin line of color on your lower lashline.









MAC #168 Large Angled Contour $34.00, Nice brush to use solely for blushing but mainly used for contouring the hollows of the cheek and applying bronzer around the contours of the face








MAC #187 Duo Fiber $42.00
This is s a pretty versatile brush, you may use it to apply your liquid foundation or on powders.  This brush gives extreme light-weight application
