How to Use Every Type of Foundation Brush
Finding a wonderful foundation—whether you choose liquid, cream, or powder—is only the beginning of the process. To apply it, you need a makeup tool; fingers aren't always the greatest choice. The type of foundation brush you use affects the finish you get totally and can even make your foundation seem and feel like a totally other kind of product, from buffing bristles to the cult favorite beauty blender sponge.
Flat Kabuki Brush
Applying liquid or cream foundation requires the use of a flat-top kabuki foundation brush. To achieve a smooth finish, the tightly packed bristles pick up foundation with ease and apply it evenly to your skin.
Apply foundation by buffing in small, circular strokes. To avoid sharp makeup lines at the borders of your jawline and hairline, start at the middle of your face and blend your foundation outward in smooth, equal strokes.
Flat Angled Kabuki Brush
Use the flat-top, angled kabuki foundation brush to apply blush, bronzer, or liquid or cream foundation. Your face's planes and curves are hugged by the angled makeup brush tip for consistently uniform application.
Use a tiny, circular motion to buff the product into your skin while angling the face makeup brush to follow the lines of your face. Use a light touch when applying the face makeup brush for full coverage foundation. Apply blush and bronzer in half circles or by lightly swiping the face makeup brush across the face for medium or light coverage.
Round Kabuki Brush
The round kabuki face brush is ideal for covering broad areas of the face with powder makeup (such as foundation, blush, bronzer, or finishing powder). The very delicate bristles evenly distribute makeup on the skin to produce coverage that looks natural.
Before applying, dip the face brush into the powder, swirl it around, and then tap the handle against the edge of your cosmetics container or a sink to remove any extra. Working from the interior of your face outward, sweep the brush in a circular motion over your face. Use half circles or lengthy sweeps for a softer application of makeup.
Angled Kabuki Brush
The angled kabuki brush is ideal for blush application and contouring with loose powdered bronzer. The bristles embrace your cheekbones and jawline to provide immaculate definition since they are dense yet soft and at the correct angle.
Before applying, dip the brush into the powder, swirl it around, and then tap the handle against the edge of your cosmetics container or a sink to remove any extra. Use lengthy, sweeping motions down your face's contours, working from the inside of your face outward.
Tapered Foundation Brush
The tapered foundation brush is ideal for applying liquid or cream makeup with greater precision. It has a tapered, rounded face makeup brush head with extremely delicate fibres. You can use it to apply and blend concealer products under the eyes, on the forehead, and beneath the cheekbones.
To use, dunk your brush in warm water and squeeze away the excess slowly. A surface should be covered with a tiny amount of liquid or cream foundation. Run the face brush lightly into the product before guiding it with even strokes along your face.
