This is a post about the MAC 188, focus, Bun Bun, FOCUS! How to Use the MAC 188 Brush in 6 Different Ways Okie, I shall profess my love for the Sigma brush in another post altogether. Many people complain about streaky liquid foundation application with the larger 187, but I've never had that problem with the Sigma F80. I haven’t tried the 187 but I’m not hungry for it because the Sigma F80 Flat Top Synthetic Kabuki Brush has been my answer to applying liquid foundation for that airbrushed effect. The MAC 187 Duo Fibre Brush is famously known for applying and blending face powder, liquid foundation, pigments, and cream products. It is the junior-sized version of the larger and pricier MAC 187. The 188 Skunk Brush is made of synthetic (black part) and goat (white part) fibres. The best remark I’ve ever heard was “Did you cut the bristles off yourself?” HAHA! My friend thought it was all white on the inside and black on the outside and I’d lost my marbles and cut the black bristles shorter. It sure looks like a skunk-color-inspired brush, doesn’t it? That’s why it is also fondly referred to as the Skunk Brush! This is what people always say when they see the 188 in my brush holder for the first time. Then I got to know about the MAC 188 Small Duo Fibre Brush and the rest, they say, is blotchy powder application history. The elf fluffy eyeshadow wasn’t made to do this so I’m not faulting it. Sometimes I’d look like I was channelling my inner Queen Amidala, except that they’re 2 sparkly white dots instead of 2 rouge-red ones. It picked up a more consistent amount of product, blended better, but still was lacking very much in the blending department. The second tool I used was a regular fluffy eyeshadow brush from e.l.f. I have a flat face, I need to fake me some cheekbones! >.<" Sometimes it would apply too heavily, sometimes it would be hard to blend out, but most times it just took up too much time to create natural-looking highlights on my cheekbones. The first tool I used to apply highlighter was my good ol’ ring finger.
Zij stelde mij voor om het Studio Careblend/Pressed Powder eens te proberen. Tijdens mijn laatste MAC-bezoekje vertelde ik mijn probleem aan de MUA. Vooral dat laatste vond ik vervelend, in de loop van de namiddag heb ik al eens last van glimmende plekjes en dan krijg je met het bijwerken al gauw een poederig resultaat. Toch begon ik mij de laatste tijd meer en meer te storen aan het feit dat hij nogal dekkend en soms poederig overkwam. Tot voor kort kon je mij gerust een trouwe gebruikster van MAC Mineralize Skinfinish Natural noemen, het populaire minerale poeder van MAC. Op zich een uitstekend poeder, dat perfect werd verdragen door mijn gevoelige huid.
