I saw these at my local Nordstrom, (and had the same initial reaction as you) immediately picked up Bahia and Maya, but felt a bit intimidated by the darkness of Havana.

A lot of concealer brushes are made of synthetic fibers nowadays (taklon usually), and depending on the size and shape I think they make good cream shadow brushes, especially if you don't have a specialized cream shadow brush (I've also used my taklon foundation brush to apply cream blush and highlighter since I don't have a specific cream blush brushBonnie C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07040981446244950337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1905173831662671321.post-51512533152016683012011-04-25T09:18:27.126-04:002011-04-25T09:18:27.126-04:00Charlestongirl, thank you for the encouragement. ...Charlestongirl, thank you for the encouragement.

I have about four of them - they are that good.<br /><br />Sometimes, because of feature length, I don't provide all the details I might. I'm so glad you encouraged everyone. These shadows are easy to use once you get your technique in the groove. :)Charlestongirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08269794937743797142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1905173831662671321.post-40872142460222882712011-04-24T21:03:29.320-04:002011-04-24T21:03:29.320-04:00Hi, so nothing to do with this post, but since I d...Hi, so nothing to do with this post, but since I didn't see your comment asking about which Chandler Burr books about perfume I'd read, I thought I'd mention them in your most recent post so you could see. :-)<br /><br />Chandler Burr wrote two books about perfume, both excellent.

These are actually very easy to apply. I use Bobbi Brown's Cream Shadow brush which has synthetic fibers. It's a generous sized flat brush which enables me to cover my rather large eyelids in just a couple of strokes.

I have learned so much from Loyd Cassler, who always puts the color on the fleshy part of his palm before he puts it on my face. It works! You can do it too.
