Recommend your face powder brush

[persa]

I think it's time for my Trish McEvoy powder brush to go the great makeup brush holder in the sky.

If you have one you love, please recommend it.

I mainly use Laura Mercier translucent loose powder over smashbox BB cream or Becca foundation but sometime I just do concealer and a light dusting of the powder. I'm thinking of trying the Jane Iredale since a studio near me has samples.

I use Sigma F80 with Iredale powder.

Hmm, the website info says it's for foundation. Which I guess would work for the JI powder but I'm not sure it would be good for regular powder. That said, if I get the JI powder, I'm not opposed to having different brushes.

Are you saying you want to try new foundation or a brush? Both?

I definitely need a brush for loose powder.

But I may be trying the Jane Iredale powder and I don't know if I need a different brush for that.

I have a travel Bobbi Brown brush and love it. It's so fluffy and thicker than my Sigma brushes.

I should check out ecotools. I bought an eye shadow brush of theirs that I love. I wasn't as impressed by my RT brush though.

If you can get me the number of the sephora brush that would be awesome. They have so many "powder" brushes I never know which to look at.

I'll look at bobbi brown next time I'm at nordstrom

Oh, okay.

I like the Sigma brush I recommended because it applies loose or pressed foundation powder nicely. It gives me great coverage basically.

The Iredale stuff is amazing. I have switched between the loose powder and pressed a couple of times. The pressed is not as messy. And, I can control the amount of foundation more accurately.

It covers my acne and very red cheeks and nose so well. It's not 100% flawless but it's probably at least a 90-95% depending on my acne.

Also, it's the only foundation that doesn't break me out. It's great for sensitive skin.

MUFE kabuki brush. It can be used to apply liquid foundation AND loose powder.

I use the Bare Minerals flawless face brush to apply loose or pressed powder. But I don't use Bare Minerals makeup, I just like the brush.

I use the Sigma F20 brush for powder.
