Hi.....
So..................I'm into cosmetics. And i love the fashion center on CB. But we have no cosmetics area? or do we? O.O edit: hair / facial products too!! I TRY LOADS! :D Either way, Discuss! -products that you really like -products you hate -products you want to try -products you'd like reviewed, etc I study this, so ask me anything!! I'd love to try and help (: And I love saving up for things and trying them. So if you have something you'd like reviewed, please ask! I "collect" makeup, you could say.. I'm always up for buying and trying it! XX |

Yeah some MAC brushes aren't that great (the cheaper face brushes, generally, like the 150 and 129). I LOVE the 182 kabuki though, although there are some good drugstore alternatives (the retractable Eco Tools kabuki is great! I brought it with me to HK). But the 217, I have never been able to find a good dupe. That one is definitely irreplaceable...the way it blends colour upon impact is amazing, plus it's super soft! The 187 is pretty good too, for pigmented blushes and especially brilliant with liquid foundation. Sadly I rarely use liquid foundation :(
You could probably get a drugstore angle brush though, Christina, cus the MAC ones are pretty expensive but perform just as well as drugstore brands. I remember than my 187 has really deep indentations in the ferrule, so deep that it creates almost a semi-circle shape, and the one in the photo looks a bit shallow. Yes there's so much fake stuff on eBay! Especially MAC brushes and popular LE stuff like Fafi and Hello Kitty. That's why I'm wary of eBay... |

Ebay's definitely good for other brands though - I've seen my mineral powder (gloMinerals) much cheaper on there than anywhere else! $25 vs. $45, you do the math. Ahaha  is always looking for the best deals.p.s. I can't wait to  and yanyan, julia, and toby
