One huge advantage for me is that when i use my fingers, the oil from my fingers cause me to break out more often than i would with a clean brush. With a flat top brush, i am able to buff the foundtion into my skin and give myself a more flawless look.

Brushes!! If you use your fingers the dirt and oil can give you acne..

i like brushes especially any airbrush because it applies more evenly and naturally 

As long as your hands are washed, cleaned, and sanitized before applying your liquid stuff, don't even worry about the horror stories. I don't think there are any "advantages" to having a brush. It's just the different finish, which I wouldn't call an advantage.

I agree with Rikki. I get a much better outcome when I apply my liquid foundation with my fingers.

I use both. But I'm finding that I do get a better finish if I apply my foundation with my fingers and then blend with a buffing brush. It just looks better for some reason. And when I do use a brush I still use my fingers to blend into my hair line, under my jaw and chin.
It really depends on what you're comfortable with. If you want to use your hands just make sure they're clean :)

I prefer to use my fingers for concealing acne scars and under eye circles. I only use brushes for eyeshadow and face application.
