Shopping for the right cosmetic brush can be pretty confusing. There seems to be so many to choose from. There are huge brushes, really thin ones, those with contour and it even comes with different handles. How in the world would you know what to use for a certain type of makeup? What should you use for your loose powder, your blush and eye shadow? You’re thinking that it makes sense to have a tiny, thin brush for your eyeliner but how do you differentiate it from the lip liner? Worry no more. The answer to your question is right here.
You can apply makeup like a pro with the right cosmetic brush. The key is to match the proper brush to the right cosmetic.
If you are a mineral makeup user, there is a special type of brush for this so you can evenly distribute the minerals to your face. They are usually “buffer” than the usual brush with either a flat or round tip. The more bristles there are, the thicker the mineral application would be.
If you are into the goth look and apply tons of eyeliner, you may want to invest on a good eyeliner brush. Make sure that the tip has very thin bristles. You may want to consider getting one with a thicker handle though so you would have more control as you apply the eyeliner. We all know how messy it can be if we make an eyeliner mistake.
You have the option of using your fingers when applying eye shadow. There is one catch though. It can be MESSY and the last thing that we need especially when we are preparing for a dressy night out is to accidentally mess up our outfit because our fingers are filled with all sorts or color and glitter. Hence, invest on good eye shadow brushes. There are contoured ones that could help you punctuate on certain colors, especially if you are mixing them for a more dramatic look. Remember to get a good eye shadow blender brush though. They are bigger than the contouring brushes and could help remove the edges for a seemless application.
We all have skin imperfections to hide every now and then. Concealer brushes are usually about the size of eye shadow brushes. They are relatively small to help you hide those tiny spots for a flawless look.
Apply makeup like a pro with the right cosmetic brush. All you need is a little know how and tons of practice.
