Definitely try what you've got first before buying the TF brush. If your BB brush doesn't work out, though, and you do decide to get TF's, know that it is excellent Hakuhodo quality.<br /><br />Good luckEileennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1905173831662671321.post-54350477817828354052012-05-03T18:09:09.789-04:002012-05-03T18:09:09.789-04:00Thank you for the great advice Eileen and charlest...Thank you for the great advice Eileen and charleston girl!

I think the darker shade on fair skin would just require a bit more know-how to pull off.
