**Drum roll** – The MAC #168 Large Angled Contour Brush.


A better picture of the angle – taken from Google, my brush isn’t so clean! 
I’ve seen this recommended on many beauty blogs, magazines, beauty YouTube videos etc. I’ve had it about a year now, and it’s still one of the main brushes I use!
I use mine mainly for blush [occasionally bronzer] and it’s great to create a contoured look. I suck in my cheeks, and follow my cheekbone up [not easy, I'm not one of those blessed people with prominent cheekbones! boo], making sure I brush upwards NOT downwards [this defeats the object of contouring!] in circular motions up to my temples. I’m really not an expert at contouring, and it really does take practice! You get better, and it looks better the more you do it
I’ve seen people moan that the brush collects too much product, but it’s a simple thing to tap off excess product off the brush, so I’ve never had that problem – never have too much product on the brush, otherwise you’ll get the tell tale ‘stripe’ across your face when theres too much product / not blended correctly.
It does shed, but I find that with all brushes – plus it’s lovely and soft, and it hasn’t lost it’s shaping at all, even with A LOT of use!

^ I actually look like I may have cheekbones in this picture, with the use of this brush!
The power of makeup eh? ..
You can buy it here and it’s £26 – worth every penny!
