Do any of you ladies (or gents :-) ) use a foundation brush? |

many many years ago, my daughter gave me a set of makeup brushes in a little silver case, nicely engraved with "Mum" |

I've got some beautiful Estee Lauder brushes that I use all the time, I prefer them to the sponge applicators (I got them as a freebie when I bought make-up when we were in the US a few years ago.... stocked up, because it's much cheaper there than in Oz). |

I haven't worn make-up since the Crusades but when I worked in the Estee Lauder factory and had a dressing table like Imelda Marcos it felt like a waste not to. |

Sharron, ever considered writing a book on your life story? Kissograms caught my eye there!! |

The only brush I use is for blusher, and the one on the end of a mascara wand - I won't leave the house without putting on mascara! Instead of foundation, I use a BB cream - it's great, and another product I won't be seen dead without! :-D :-D :-D |

Sharron ~ that's what I usually do (the dots & the sponge).... but I thought I'd try something different :-D... and I use a small sea sponge. I only use powder in winter, and only if I'm going somewhere special; can't use powder (or much foundation) in the summer here, cos it melts away with the humidity..... the powder turns into mud :-( |

Scozz - not sure if you can get BB cream in Australia, but it's very popular here, lots of firms make it, but one of the best, in my opinion, is by Garnier. It acts a bit like a tinted moisturiser, but is mineral based. The coverage is a bit lighter than a foundation, but still pretty good, and has sun factor of at least 15. It's good for the skin, and is a bit of a multi tasker |

The art of using brushes is to remove most of the powder after loading. |
