M.A.C 109 brush REVIEW.

What?: M.A.C 109 small contouring brush.
Where?: Anywhere that sells M.A.C!
How much?: Regular price is $32 in the US.

If you saw my last blog, you would've known that i got this mainly to apply liquid foundation. I heard a lot of great things from fafinettex3's and other youtuber's videos. Even the makeup artist recommended it for me. So let's see how i liked it ...

Pro's! : - amazing for contouring!
- really soft even after you wash it a gazillion times.
- sturdy enough so you have control over the brush.
- blends as you apply on color.
- incredible deal if you can find it @ a CCO.

Con's! : - As i said, i bought this mainly for liquid foundation, and i don't think it works very well.

Yennie's rating:
I rated it 4 & 1/2 domos because even if it didn't work for foundation, it's going to be my go-to contouring brush, and that's what it was originally made to do, CONTOUR! (:

haul #1 - M.A.C, Sephora, Daiso.

Hello there (: . So i went with my cousin to go shopping on Sunday, and i'm posting it pretty late since this is my first "beauty blog". Just so you know, i've been saving up for everything you see here for a very long time. If you have any questions or want any reviews, comment me! (: I'm sorry for the terrible quality. I took these pictures last night at 10:30 because i couldn't sleep, so i had to use flash.


Benefit's Eyebright [$20] - It's just a pencil eye brightener. The color is just a really pale pink. Sephora's Eye Brightener [$14] - Another pencil eyebrightener, also pale pink. Sample from the Body Shop [FREE!] - Moroccan Rose Body Butter.


M.A.C 109 [$32] - Small contour brush. NARS #9 [$21] - Liquid Eyeliner brush. M.A.C. 209 [$17.50, i think.] - small eyebrow brush.


Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizer [$24] . M.A.C Brush Cleanser [$10, i think.] Revlon Colorstay Liquid Foundation [about $10] .


MakeUpForEver Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner [$22, i think] - In #1, which is black. Urban Decay 24/7 Glide On Pencils [$16 each] - Zero which is a black & Yeyo which is a metallic white.

Photobucket
M.A.C Fluidlines [$15 each] - Rich Ground which is a bronze & Blacktrack which is a black. Random Japanese Eyelash Curler from Daiso [$1.50] (=

At M.A.C., the makeup artist gave me the wrong fluidline. She said that the brown one would look great on me, so i decided to get it. & then she told me i could go wait in line, and when i get home it's a bronze color. Oh well, i don't have any bronze eyeliners so that's cool. :] I wanted to get the stippling brush AND the 109 but the stippling brush was out of stock, so i just settled for the 109; the makeup artist said it was amazing for liquid foundation because it will really buff it out. But i think i'll just get the stippling brush, apply my foundation with it and in the end i'll blend it together. :D Request a review anytime! (: Hahaha, i spent too much. -__-
