5 makeup brushes you should invest in
The transformative power of makeup is no secret — it can banish dark circles, eradicate redness and make you look chic in seconds. But even the best makeup can be let down by poor application, which is why your brushes are so important.
In particular, here are five brushes that will take your makeup application to the next level.
A buffing brush
This is the secret to a flawless finish. I use this to layer on concealer before my foundation. The bristle-packed design means the product is perfectly worked into the skin for a seamless look, plus you’ll use less product in the process! A buffing brush is also a useful tool to smooth in foundation as it gets the job done efficiently and quickly.
A big, fluffy powder brush
Nothing looks worse than caked-on make up. This brush prevents that for happening. The bigger the powder brush, the softer the application is which means that your powder will always look as natural as possible.
A small setting brush
A soft and fluffy brush is the perfect tool for targeted applications. It’s small size gives you precision so you can lightly dust setting powder under the eyes or add the perfect amount of shimmer to highlight the top of your cheekbones or just under your brow bone
A ridiculously soft blusher brush
A really soft brush makes it easier to blend everything into the skin. Blush brushes with a long handle are the easiest to use and give the best results. The further away you hold the brush, the softer and more diffused the colour is.
A sculpting brush
These brushes tend to be angled and thin so that you can carve out razor-sharp cheekbones in a flash. It’s tapered design also does all of the work for you when it comes to blending.
