Question:
Help me choose a new blusher brush!
I really really need a good blusher brush. I'm very pale so one that doesn't pick up too much colour is probably a good thing! I'd like it if it was easy to get a sheer wash of colour which you can then build instead of it being one that loads on a lot of colour. I know lots of you are raving about the MAC 182, 187 & 188 but now I'm confused about which one would be best for me! I was going to get a TBS one as it is a lot cheaper but now I'm wondering if it would be better in the long run to spend a bit more. So if anyone has used the TBS one opinions on that would be great too. Otherwise, which MAC one should I get? I only use powder blusher if that helps.
Hi hb21,
Seeing as you specified you wanted a brush that gives you a sheer finish, I would recommend the MAC 187. It picks up just the right amount of powder. The 182 is the buffer brush which I use to go over my blusher to give it a flawless finish. Hope that helps!

Thanks Carina! You are the MAC blush queen so I think I'll follow your advice! What is the difference between the 187 & 188? Is it just the size?

:lol: I do love my MAC blushers! I havent got the 188 but I think apart from the size difference its just easier to apply cream blushers as it gives greater control.
The 187 it is then :D I'm going to order it later and think I'm going to get the strange hybrid petalpoint blush as well. I've been looking at the swatches on specktra and it looks like it would suit me. I haven't bought any MAC things for a while so I'm quite excited!
