Hi Beauties,
I know my post is long overdue, am glad I finally did this. You Guys
have requested I do a post on makeup brushes and its uses. Here is the list of top
10 makeup brushes every girl should own. Let’s get started with the eye
brushes!
EYE BRUSHES
Eye Shader Brush
This brush is used for packing colour on the lid. You can also use the
tip of the brush to smudge colour under the lash line, or to create a defined
line in the crease.
Stiff Dome Brush
This brush is great for feathering out colour to create a Smokey eye, or
blending out the crease. The bristles are stiff, making it easy to move the eye
shadow where you want it.
Pencil Brush
This pencil-like brush is perfect for precision shading on the lid, in
the crease of the eye, or along the lash line. This brush can also be used for
smudging liner along the lash line, or darkening the outer-v for a dramatic
look.
Soft Dome Brush
This dome shaped brush has very soft bristles that make it ideal for
blending out any harsh lines below the brow bone. This brush can also be used
for blending out concealer under the eye to help hide dark circles and bags.
Bent Liner Brush
Designed specifically for applying
gel eyeliner, this brush has a bent head that lays perfectly on the top of the
lashes, and glides with ease. The pointed tip helps create a fool proof line
that will have even the beginners pulling off a stunning cat eye.
Dual Ended Brow Brush
With this brush, you get double for
your money! This dual ended brush has a spoolie on one end allowing you to
brush through your brows. The other end has an angled brush which is ideal for
effortlessly filling in your brows.
FACE BRUSHES
Angled Contour Brush
There are many of these on the market
today in a various array of shapes and sizes. With this particular angled
contour brush, you can swipe the brush downward diagonally from your cheekbone,
and in one fluid motion achieve a flawless application.
Cheek Highlighter Brush
The cheek highlighter brush is
completely optional, but the feathery, soft bristles give a very nice finish to
any product used with it. This brush is very easy to use when applying a
highlighter to the top of the cheekbones. You can also use the cheek
highlighter brush with cream blushes to stipple the blush onto the cheeks.
Foundation Stippling Brush
The foundation stippling brush is
perfect for those of you who love a full coverage look to your foundation. The
large flat head is specifically made for the foundation to be stippled onto the
face. This technique assures there are no streaks in the foundation, resulting
in a flawless look to the skin.
Flat Foundation Brush
The flat foundation brush is
optional. This brush is best used to apply highlighter to the top of the
cheekbones. At times this brush can leave streaks in your foundation, so be
careful when using it.
So there you have it, my top 10 makeup brushes! As a beginner looking to
start your collection, or as a makeup guru looking to expand, these brushes are
great for everyone.
However having correct brushes can make a difference in your makeup
application... As always, I hope everyone stays happy and healthy... Cheers!!!
