I think I’ve established a reputation for loving the Guerlain Meteorites Illuminating Pearls 🙂 Another very common question after “What am I supposed to see on my skin?” is “What brush do I use with this?” Guerlain makes a specific brush for use with their Meteorites. Its a short handled brush and its got pink bristles which I know sends every girl out there into a cute frenzy. In the recent Pucci collection they had a blue bristled brush which was limited edition.
I’ve felt up these so-called Meteorites brushes but for the most part, I don’t like them because they feel stiff and scratchy on my skin and for the asking price, I think its terribly steep. However, I realised that what the brushes had in common was that they were dense, yet pliable. So I went off on my own search and stumbled on the brush I use quite by mistake.
I had purchased the Trish McEvoy Bronzer 37 brush because I wanted a brush I could use to learn to apply bronzer with and this brush came highly raved. The natural hair bristles are lovely and soft on the skin, yet it is densely packed and pliable. The head is tapered to a dome shape, and it is supposed to be excellent for bronzer because it allows you to deposit the powder precisely on skin.
I worked out eventually that I did not like using it for bronzer but I had to find another use for it, because its a pricey little thing. One day, I tried it out with the Meteorites powder and the rest, as they say, is history!
