    Am thinking of getting a foundation brush from the likes of mac. Is there a particular one I should be getting?

    Any other brush suggestions?

    The 187 stippling brush is amazing, applies liquid foundation flawlessly in my experience :) Expensive, but so worth it.

    You could try the real techniques expert face brush...it gets rave reviews!

    Or a beauty blender sponge, a lot of people have switched to these sponges from brushes, there is a cheaper cosmopoliton one available that works just as well.

    I used to use the Elizabeth Arden mineral powder foundation and had the brush that came with it.

    When I moved back to liquid foundation I bought a 187 and did love it but lost it after a weekend away. After a panic, as I couldn't afford to replace it, I came across the old EA brush.
    I tried it and loved it. I love the effect! Never would go back to the 187. It is also much cheaper.
    Just another opinion. :)

    I have the MAC 187, the Real Techniques foundation brush and an Elizabeth Arden classic foundation brush. Nothing beats the ELF Studio Line Flat Top Buffing Brush. It cost like three euro and is brilliant. Beaut.ie has a post on it. Check it out.

    don't waste your money on Mac brushes! I used to think they were the only good ones but I have since tried loads on the market and have found them way better. The Real Techniques Stippling Brush or Buffing Brush, the Sigma f80 or Blank Canvas Cosmetics f20 are far better at applying foundation and are much cheaper! :D

    MAC 217 tends to be a classic must-own brush for a lot of people
