MAC Pro Longwear SPF 10 Foundation and Brush 187SE

Best foundation and best foundation brush. MAC Pro Longwear SPF 10 Foundation and Brush 187SE my new LOVE. The foundation itself has a great feel and finish and is super long wearing. I prefer this brush (187SE) on a regular flat foundation brush for applying liquid foundation.

What I do is I dispense few pumps of liquid foundation on the back of my hand then tap brush 187SE on to get liquid foundation on brush and then tap (not brush on) on my face. This way you are not caking your face with foundation. The effect is more like an airbrush effect. The brush bristles diffuse the foundation and allows for sheer yet buildable application. Also it cuts down foundation application to 30 seconds! I’m big on quick yet effective makeup. I’m a busy lady you know:)))

MAC DSQUARED2

MAC DSQUARED2: Every season the fashion crowd is up and on the run, crazy for the fierce and sexy fun we’ve come to expect from designers Dan and Dean Caten, the Canadian twins who know how to pack a punch – and throw a party! With their haute hi-jinx and body-beautiful clothes for boys and girls, a collaboration with MAC simply could NOT be avoided!

“DSquared² and MAC are on the same trip!” says Dan. It starts with a strong, sooty, blackest-ever wild-child eye… a new Greasepaint Stick also in blue and violet versions, and Pro Gloss to create it. Neutral and perfected skin will get more drama with highlighting and low lighting from Sculpt and Shape Powders and the 165 Tapered Cheek/Highlight Brush all the better to achieve it. And finally, the totally nude Pro Lip Erase does its stuff, followed by a light Lipstick and Lip Conditioner to put the lilt and lift back in…. But the cynosure of this season’s scintillating collaboration is the daring, dramatic, slightly demented DSquared² eye. Have fun with it!
