Foundation application using the MAC 109

This morning I used MAC's 109 brush to apply my Studio Fix Fluid.

I have talked about using this brush for my highlight but alot of people have been using this brush to apply their liquid foundation.

Now its my turn...

This is the finished look:


I assumed this method would take me forever, therefore I was shocked when I had applied my foundation in under 5 minutes. Applying foundation is a lengthy process for me :S

Everything you've heard about this brush (hopefully all good) is true. My skin to me looks airbrushed. For a brush so small it can cover everything in less time and with hardly any effort. Its really soft on my skin, something i'm not used to when using the 190. Another plus is that it doesn't absorb alot of product and throughout the application it had lost one hair.

I used a light hand with this brush and buffed the product in. I was very cautious not to be too rough in case it ruined the hairs. I often found myself swiping the brush in a downward motion instead of circular because thats what im used to.

This could be my new HG foundation brush. I'm amazed by the results :)

If anyone has this brush please try this.

    @happy1234 I'd recommend you get this brush, so many different uses for it.
    My eyesbrows are one of my features I hate. The hairs are very thin and I can never get a colour to match to fill them in

    Totally agree, great brush for foundation including cream ones and also for highlighting and contouring (which is what its actually made for lol!). Would replace this tomorrow if I needed to xxx
