    I know this brush was intended for the MSF naturals, but I like it best with my liquid foundation. It's like a bigger, fluffier version of the 190, which imo makes it perfect for liquid foundation,...

    I also purchased this brush at the CCO and I have to say that I am very pleased with it. Like the other reviewers I wasn't sure what I was going to use it for but I decided to try it with my...

    I purchased this brush at a CCO recently - and love it. At first I was perplexed about what to use it for. I use it for applying liquid foundation and like its application much more than my Mac 190...

    #189 Where have you been? I have been searching for a brush that delivers perfect powder foundation application and have finally found it in the MAC 189. It is super soft, nothing scratchy about...

    This is the best liquid foundation brush ever! Beats the 109/187/188 anyday. I am beyond pleased with this brush, no shedding at all. I do think it was a bit spendy, but all mac brushes are. This...

    Perfect for powder or skincare products, great for liquid or cream foundation. A bit too stiff at first, but after washing it a few times, it feels softer.

    This brush replaced the 190 as my tool for applying Select Moistureblend SPF 15 foundation. It leaves no streaks and builds coverage better. I find I use less concealer or Full Coverage foundation,...

    On the website, it's described to be used mainly with the Mineralize series (it came out earlier with a collection), and it does put on mineralize skinfinish natural very nicely: it picks up powder...

    I'm surprised there aren't more reviews for this brush. This brush is amazing in how it applies pressed powders and Mineralize Skinfinish naturals. It feels just like a powder brush, but in a...

    This brush is part of the New View Collection and retails for $40. It looks like a bigger version of the MAC 190 brush and has a flat head with smooth, synthetic bristles. If you are familiar...

    The syntehtic 189 brush came out with the New View collection. It's somewhere between a powder and foundation brush. The feeling isn't "soft", but more like smooth. It can apply all powders,...
