    The 190 is a basic foundation brush. Honestly, if you are going to opt for a brush like this, you can find a cheaper alternative like the sigma 190. Since buying my MAC 190 6 yeras ago, I no...

    My first MAC acquisition. As part of my face arsenal the 190 holds its place. Even though I own the 187 & 182 I like to use this brush for putting on my sunblock as I like to put things really...

    While this isn't a horrible brush, it simply isn't worth the price in my opinion. I don't use mine much because the application takes a little more time than when I use my 187(LOVE). I regret...

    I've tried so many brushes for foundation/concealer but this is seriously my HG. It doesn't absorb the product into its bristles, but instead spreads it so evenly. Not to mention its so soft! ...

    I love this for applying my foundation. I bought the 187 as well because everyone said it is great for applying foundation, but I prefer the 190 over the 187.
