My Favorite Face Brushes

 

I have been reviewing a lot of brushes for the past years.  From high end brands to the most inexpensive ones, it is funny how I never shared my top picks!  I mean not everyone can invest on a set of brushes so today, I am sharing my top 4+1 brushes that I can't live without.

1. Foundation Brush

I never use this type of brush to "blend" my base, instead, I use this to apply the right amount of product seamlessly to my skin.  This is a nice brush to also apply concealer.  The flat side of the brush gives ample "coverage" so I don't need to use a lot of product because the brush does not absorb as much product as sponges.

Foundation brush brand: Estee Lauder

2. Oval Brush

The Oval Brush came out in the latter part of the Beauty Game.  Though I do not talk much about these type of brushes, I pick them up a lot. (if you zoom closer, you can see how worn out the this brush is!) 

How do I use this brush?  I apply a good amount of concealer (usually in Doe Foot applicator) and use this brush to blend the concealer on the undereye area and it gives off a perfect coverage.  With the extra product on brush, I sweep it on the sides of my nose, chin and other areas of my face and it immediately covers spots and redness!  I can do my makeup half the time because of this brush,

MAC Lightful C³ Emulsion and Compact Cushion Review

 

When MAC Lightful  C³  was officially released, a lot are intrigued by it because it focuses on keeping the skin plump, hydrating, glowing and best of all, perfect for everyday use!

MAC Lightful  C³  Emulsion ---

Instant hydration and softening with a rosy tone-up effect.  Skin appears brighter, more radiant and more even-toned, immediate and over time.

Here's what I noticed after consistently using the emulsion.  Skin feels immediately soft and smooth (like baby's bum!)  Since my skin is hydrated, it gives a glowing effect making my skin looks alive and plump!

The plump and hydration lasts for hours so I don't have issues using drying foundation because my skin is well-hydrated throughout the day.  I also noticed how my skin has an instant tone-up!  And I don't have any allergic reactions using such product.

Since I have sensitive nose, there is quite a strong fragrance for me which goes away after 10 minutes to 15 minutes.  Others will not notice this but because of my sensitivity, I really prefer skincare products to be fragrance-free - that's just me!
