My 5 must-have MAC Eye Brushes

         
Brushes are great makeup tools. They can truly improve the outcome of your work. Whether you're a professional, a beginner or just another makeup addict like me, having the right tools and in this case make up brushes, is very important. There are many reasons why you should invest in brushes. First, blending is a tedious task without the bristles of a brush. It is almost impossible to achieve proper blending using your fingers or sponges. Second, brushes may seem expensive at first but with the right care, they can last you for ages, unlike sponges or those cotton-bud types that are available in market. And they're more environment-friendly because you don't throw them immediately:). Last but not the least, they are gentler unlike your fingers because they exert lesser effort against the sensitive skin around the eyes which is very prone to wrinkles and sagging. You might wonder why I chose MAC. It's because most makeup gurus refer to these brushes all the time and are somewhat used as the benchmark in the "brush industry". Of course there are other fabulous brushes by other brands but I'll talk about them in some other post. For now, let's see which MAC ones have made it to my list. Happy reading!
