which type of brush to use for pat Pat McGrath Labs Mothership Pat McGrath Labs Mothership Palettes?

Hey guys I bought the Subversive palette  III, but I need help in figuring out which type of brush to get. I am somewhat disappointed as I thought the glittery shades would be more pigmented and metallic  as seen on the ads and photos. So I want to know what do I do to get a richer look on the glittery shades? The ones I am talking about are the black one with glitter and the purples. They are not so opaque. 

The shapeshifter shades are more likes toppers so those aren't a problem.

Do i need a certain type of brush?

Some of the shadows are VERY STIFF!!! 

I just ordered some too faced glitter glue and  I hope this will make the glittery shades stick.

I am sure there is a way to get these shadows to work but what kinda brush is good for STIFF eyeshadows? 

I am not sure what is going in the ads  but heck my Pat McGrath Labs Mothership Palettes are not looking like that . 

Are some of these shadows are not very pigmented as they make them out to be in the ads..  or I am not using the right brush??

If you layer them they will pigment more and they are very smooth and buildable.

I use the MAC 242 brush and fix plus to make the colors more intense.

I’ve seen a lot of videos where they spray the brush with a finishing spray to get it damp and that helps to pick up a lot more product

OK thanks for your reply I have some Mac fix plus I will try that and see if it works at picking up more product! 

I think a stiff brush may help too.

k just had to write back and say the mac fix plus did it and the eyeshadows look just like the pallete with it.
