First is the MAC 127 Split Fibre Face Brush. Mine has a blue handle because this brush first came out with the Alluring Aquatic collection. This is my favourite bronzer brush, more so to apply the bronzer to my cheeks/cheekbones because it's quite a flat brush so it keeps the bronzer where I want it to be. This brush is now permanent with the classic mac handle colour.
Next up is the MAC 129 Powder/Blush Brush. Again this is another one of my favourite brushes for bronzer more for my forehead though. I really love this brush. I also have the short handles version (129SH) and that is my favourite blusher brush. Something about the short handle makes it better for blusher!
This next brush is the MAC 132 Duo Fibre Foundation Brush. First, I don't use this for foundation. It's quite a small dense brush, I find that it is perfect for cream highlighters! I use mine with my mac Creme colour Base in Pearl. It just blends it's perfectly doesn't leave it looking stripy, it's just a really nice brush for cream products. Of course you could use it for foundation and it gives a nice finish to th foundation but I personally love it and use it for the cream highlighters.
A similar looking brush is the MAC 159 Duo Fibre Brush. This is a great brush for foundation! It works beautifully with the Studio Fix Fluid foundation. But since I changed my foundations I find that with the runnier liquids that this brush doesn't blend it in enough for me. I am on the look out for a really good buffer foundation brush, so if you have any ideas of brushes comment down below!
Next is another popular MAC brush, it's the 168 Large Angled Contour Brush. I have 3 of these! I don't know why I have that many but I love this brush. It's good for blusher, contouring, highlighter and it's amazing for foundation. It's so soft and fluffy! It's a deffo must have.
The MAC 190 Foundation Brush is what a classic foundation brush looks like. I don't use this for foundation or anything creamy at all! I use this brush with my Anastasia Banana powder and mac emphasise shaping powder to highlight and set under my eyes! This was just a random pick up with these products and now I love it!
This last brush is a Zoeva 105 Luxe Highlight Brush. I use this for my highlighter, clues in the name! I didn't have a specific brush for my highlighters and highlighting is my favourite thing! I love to make my skin glow! So I welcomed this into my collection and I use it everyday to apply my highlighters to the tops of my cheekbones!
I can't do a post about my must have face tools without mentioning the amazing Beauty Blenders! I have the Original (pink) and the Pro (black). This is my favourite way to blend out my undereye concealer/highlight! Such an amazing way to apply cream products! It's also a really nice way to apply foundation! If you read my blog you know how much of a big fan I am of the Beauty Blenders!
I clean all my brushes with the MAC Brush Cleanser, I have always used this even before I worked for mac. It cleans your brushes and you don't have to leave them drying for days. It's a quick and effective way to clean your brushes! I find that the best way to clean my Beauty Blenders is with the Beauty Blender Cleasner Solid! Again very quick and it works!
