Brush Review: The MAC 137

The MAC 137 Long Blending Brush is described in the MAC website as an ultra-soft tapered brush for a light dusting of powder. Despite its name, i don't particularly use this for blending. Like its tiny counterpart, the 221, its great for applying color to a small area of the face like the top of your cheekbones because the tapered shape comes to a point. Its really fluffy and soft. One of the softest natural fiber brushes I've had. Due to that fluffiness, it does not pack on too much pigment. Instead, you get a sheer wash of color. This is good for those really pigmented blushes that seem scary in the pan. If you use this brush to apply that scary blush, you'll lessen the chances that you'll look like a clown. I also use this brush to apply my highlight because the product is lightly applied and diffused. You won't get that chunky and powdery highlight that makes your face look like a disco ball. I also use this to apply a touch of powder to small areas like my nose or under my eyes. There really isn't anything bad to say about this brush except it is pricey but then i feel that its worth it because of the quality. #makeup #brushes #makeupbrushes #brushreview #makeupreview #makeupaddict #beautyjunkie #makeupjunkie #beautyaddict #instabeauty #instamakeup #twitter #blogger #beauty #beautyblog #beautyblogger
