If you have a stiffer brush, I would try that too. The 239 seem is too soft to crush any glitter. I also recommend that you swipe the brush on the back of your hand to avoid excess product. Once you have it on your lid, it will be so much harder to crush - unless you want to poke your eyeballs. I hope this helps.


PS: I tried W10, NW20, and NW55 in combination with Museum Bronze (my favorite piggie). Brushes used: 214, 259 (lower lash line); 228 (tear duct); 249, 235 (crushing and appyling); 223 (blending - the synthetic long bristles work like a charm on those piggies); 219 (outer V). Love it!
DANG MAC-Guy: I wish you would post the look! I want to see this!

To me, the 215 is a smaller version of the 227.
That sounds pretty good. I love the 227, everything about it. Its large and great for all over color on my lids. The 215 will be the perfect addition to my brush family. And I am from Philly, where 215 is our area code, so that number is special to me. It's been a while since i've grabbed a Mac brush. I'm overdue.

I have spoken to my Pro store and have ordered the brush already and heading down to my counter tomorrow to try out the creams to see what colours I want to order. I would like to get 2-3 so I can use them to mix them for myself and clients.

I should have mine by the end of the week.. EXCITED!!!!!!!

I ordered the eye brush yesterday. Simply because everything else I wanted from Styleseeker was sold out (in less than an hour after it was up on the site!!) Should be here tomorrow.

I noticed there's a large amount of traffic coming to my blog from here lately, so thank you to for the linking.

I got the Pressed Pigments yesterday, and was totally excited for them. From what I learned they can be use wet and dry.. also on the body not just for the face?! But I think the only way to actually use them on your body, is to apply them wet. That way the shimmers and the color are kinda melted down, but it still is a whole lot of shimmers to put on your body. The swatches I have on my blog, don't really shows how shimmery they are.. See the swatches and add about x3 more shimmers

Thank you so much for the swatches! Do you think you will use them more on the eyes or as cheek highlighters?

I went to our freestanding store today, to pick up some items from face & body. Love the pressed pigments and bought Day Gleam and Deeply Dashing, along with Coffee Walnut sculpting cream and the 162 brush. That brush is really nice, but i'm a bit sad that it is made in china. What happend? I remember full size brushes were exlcusively made in france and japan. Hopefully it dosen't start to shed.

I ordered Day Gleam pressed pigment and Naturally Defined sculpting cream! I hope Naturally Defined isn't too dark, the other lighter shade looked too light for me.

It's a highlighter (shaping cream), thus I'm pretty sure it won't be too dark for you (but maybe too light).
