Interesting. What would you recommend to stipple on liquid foundation?Originally Posted by vogueboy /img/forum/go_quote.gif
Yeah that's "normal" for that type of optical fibre brush as is with their powder brushes.
I remember Lancôme had that same issue with that exact same brush in 1998. And again I am having the same issue with my 187 as the rest of you.
It has something to do with the glue and how the bristle-ends are packed into the ferrule not very well.
Technically, optical fibre brushes are meant for polishing highlighters on the face/body, and not for wet make-ups such as foundations. But there is more than two ways to use any one tool or product in a make-up kit. Hence people are calling it a stippling brush and using it as such.
I don't use my 187 for foundation, I use it for dry product, and It still sheds...
So regardless of how you use and clean it, they unfortunately shed! Argh!

Thanks,

I've consulted with a few Pro MUA's and a make-up instructor last week about this thread, and they all say the same thing... This style of brush sheds, no matter how you use it or in what manner you clean it.Originally Posted by tgooberbutt /img/forum/go_quote.gif

I wash it out twice a week. And I use it with Revlon ColorStay liquid foundation. Not a single hair has come out of it....and it's been about a year.
