Whether
you're a beauty newbie, or someone who's been in the biz for a while, unless
you've been AWOL for the last decade, I'm sure you've heard of the MAC 187 Duo
Fibre (Foundation) Stipling Face Brush. This brush is forever showered with
praise in the blogging and vlogging word alike. What you'd like to know is how
it fares up against the ELF Studio Brush, right?

Which one
would I recommend?
I'd have
to say my ELF Studio Powder Brush wins hands-down any day. That's not to say
that the MAC 187 Foundation Brush is crap, as I've still got mine, however,
it's my reserve and isn't the one I reach for on a daily basis. Although both
brushes do shed, I feel my MAC one has shed more than my ELF one. I also feel
like in terms of finishes, my ELF brush gives a just as good finish as my MAC
one, if not better.
For make-up
beginners, I'd particularly recommend the ELF brush, as the stippling technique
can be a bit hard to get the hang off at first, and does take a lot of
practise. Furthermore, for your first make up-brush, I wouldn't advice spending
tonnes of money, as you'll probably end up buying loads of brushes throughout
your make-up journey.
Although,
the ELF brush, is recommended for use with powder products, I've used this for
liquid, and know other bloggers do this too, and it works like a dream.
