MOTD- semi-natural, CC?

I have the Smashbox pencil trio too and like all 3 products. I'm going to check out the RCMA palette! I also have the Senna contour palette which I should revisit again. I also have the Kevyn Aucoin Sculpting powder and cream. The powder is supposed to be the best - texture, color, etc. - but I don't think it looks like "shadow" on me - just kind of...dirty...? I have others, too, but honestly, the Kevyn Aucoin is so easy to apply with his contour brush, I usually just grab for them. I find powder contour to be easier than cream, but I need more experience. I have 2 different sizes of the MAC duo fiber brushes (I think they're 187 & 188?). I don't love using them because the tips are so soft and they look dirty with blush (I know...weird!). Is your dense blush brush from Sephora for the cream to powder formulas for Senna blushes? Thank you!!

Yes it is! It's synthetic so it works great for cream products. It's not even what I would call a high quality brush, but I guess it is since it works great for that blush. I actually use two, they're just alike only one is angled and one is round. Let me go inside, I'll take pics of them.

Oh wait! That makes three brushes because I forgot I mentioned the duo fiber one. I use that one on days I don't contour because it's a little bigger and places the product in a larger area. Just one sec I'll show you.

I use the one in the middle the most because it's small and dense, I can control the product easiest with that. The one on the left is also great, it's just angled so it helps me sweep the blush up towards my temples, but I got it from my first makeup academy, it's not actually on the market. The one on the right works well too, it's from ITCosmetics.
