M.A.C 239 Eye Shader Brush Review

Today, I’m talking about my favourite M.A.C makeup brush ever! Apart from the 190 Foundation brush, I cannot live without this brush in my makeup kit. It’s the M.A.C 239 Eye Shader Brush.

In the past, I would (like most girls out there) use a normal, fluff brush to apply my eye shadow and would always end up with product fallout on my face (not cool and messy). But, since I started using the M.A.C 239 brush to apply my eye shadow, not only does it go on really well, but it lasts much longer too.

I also noticed that you get  far more intense colour when applying your eye shadow with this brush, as apposed to using a fluffy eye brush or those horrid applicators that you get with most eye shadows – why they even use those I will never know!

The M.A.C 239 brush is also really easy to clean. I am a huge fan of M.A.C Typographic Eye Shadow, which if you are a fan,  will know it’s pitch black and creamier than normal eye shadows. Anyways, after I apply my Typographic shadow with the 239 brush, I just clean it up with a little shampoo and all the colour comes out. Which means, when I apply a lighter shade the next time, there are no tell-tail sings of the Typographic colour on my brush.

Onto more technical stuff, the M.A.C 239 Eye Shader brush is soft and dense and can be used to apply or blend eye shadow. The tapered, round edge has smooth, fine fibers that are great for building up your shadow to your desired level of intensity.

As with all M.A.C Brushes, the 239 Eye Shader Brush is a professional brush (that anyone can use and has access to). It is hand-sculpted and assembled using the finest quality materials. The M.A.C brushes also have wood handles and nickel-plated brass ferrules which means they will last you for years to come if taken care of correctly.
