How do you apply your Studio Fix?

[MAChostage]

If you use a brush, please specify which one. If you use "another method", please specify.

(Edited to add: I guess I should have specified Studio Fix powder, for the purpose of this thread!)

I use the Sephora bronzer brush, it's almost like a kabuki so I can really buff it into the skin.

I apply Studio Fix with a kabuki brush. My favorite one to use is the MAC 182 buffer (kabuki) brush. I have the one from the Catherine D icon collection, but now this brush is in the regular line (just with a black handle instead of chrome).

I always use a brush. I actually use the Essence of Beauty one I got at CVS (a whopping $10). I was amazed at the quality and softness of it and it has held up perfectly! I had the PX one before and had gotten rid of it b/c it sucked for me.

I was leaning toward trying it with a brush and the 187 seems to be the overwhelming favorite! About that Essence of Beauty brush from CVS, I bought one of their powder brushes and the handle came unglued the second or third time I used it! Oh, well, you get what you pay for I suppose. I appreciate all the repsonses thus far!

190 brush.

 

[hyperRealGurl]

187...

 

[fash10nista]

Currently, with a MAC sponge...but I've been breaking out lately so since the 187 seems to be the public choice, I may try using that instead...

the sponge gives the most coverage but is not a good choice due to bacteria etc. however, i personally do not like the 187 for studio fix because the 187 grabs so little powder (hence, stippling brush) and doesn't cover enough for my far from perfect skin. i would only recommend the 187 for people who have little to cover. somewhere in between the sponge and the 187 lies the 150 or any type of fluff brush. my personal preference is the 190 because the firm bristles allow full coverage

Wow! I have several of them and have used the hell out of them and never had a problem, I'm so sorry to hear that.

i use the sponge it came with but if i wear it over my studio tech i use the 129 brush

 

[KeshieShimmer]

I use the heavenly face brush from BareEscentuals to apply the foundation.
