The Basics on Makeup Brushes
Hey Ladies and Gents!
I'm
going to be talking to you today about makeup brushes. I'd like to say
that this is like, "Makeup Brushes for Dummies", but maybe dummies is
not the right word. You're pretty savvy. You know what's up, and you've
been in the makeup game for a while. But maybe, just maybe, you're like
I was, and you have no idea what the difference is between a smudge brush and a texture brush. Have no fear, I'm here to tell all... or at
least all of the basic knowledge that I've learned about makeup brushes.
Have
you ever wondered why your "old faithful" foundation brush starts to
make your face look muddy, or even worse, starts to break your face out?
These are the tales of a dirty makeup brush. In order to have a
flawless look, you'll need these babies to be clean and pristine! And
it's not just old makeup that you're washing off. You're washing off the
accumulated dead skin, dirt, oil, and bacteria that your favorite brush
has been storing for you. (YUCK!) Fun fact:
You should be cleaning your makeup brushes at least every two
weeks...and eyeliner brushes need to be cleaned DAILY! Once you've got a
clean and dry brush, be sure that you store it smartly. I personally
use the GloMinerals Brush Roll.
Face it
Foundation brushes are like paintbrushes for your liquid foundations. The best way
that I've come across to use these brushes is to apply the foundation
to the center of your face and sweep outwards towards your hairline and
jawline. This gives you a great seamless finish! If you're not a liquid
girl, try a base or a powder brush for your pressed bases. If you have
areas on your face that need special attention, try out a concealer
brush. I use these brushes to not only hide the occasional blemish, but
also to clean up my lipstick edges! For blush, bronzer, or illuminator,
try out a big fluffy brush like the Osmosis Colour Full Face Brush or a
nice Kabuki for even distribution.
Eyes on Point
When
I think of all the different brushes for the eyes, the word
"overwhelming" comes to mind. I used to just think I could spread eye
shadow on my lids with my fingers...oh, if only it were all that easy!
No fear here, there is a brush for that! The basic shadow brush is for
even application of your powder or cream shadows. Then we get artistic!
There's the blender brush, which is pretty self-explanatory. The fluffy
bristles diffuse your shadow so you can blend into your crease. Next,
there's the smudge brush. The smudge brush is generally used to soften
eye liner in order to achieve a smoky eye, but you can also use it to
apply targeted accent colors to your inner or outer corners. Lastly, we
have eyeliner brushes, which are angled perfectly to get those lids
lined up with some liquid eyeliner. And as mentioned previously, wash
these puppies daily! The basics are pretty simple, right?
Brows on Fleek
I
had used a Q-Tip in the past to fill in my brows. Had I known how
terrible it left me looking, I would not have done so. I had white Q-Tip
remnants in my eyebrows and the ends of them were slightly rounded into
a Q-Tip shape. Game changer: Brow Brush! These brushes are angled
perfectly to keep your brows looking fab. Another awesome brow tool is
the spoolie brush. Yes, it's mostly recognized for its abilities to
help you kill it
during mascara applications, but that doesn't mean it can't up your
brow game. Basically you use it to smooth out your brows after you’ve
filled in with a brow pencil. Bye-bye harsh lines, hello "naturally"
beautiful!
The Overachiever
The
Fan Brush: I like to call this brush my cleanup crew. I call it that
because it is generally used to sweep away any fallen product and to
blur and diffuse harsh lines. In addition to those cleaning duties, it's
also a great brush for getting a more precise powder foundation
application or applying skincare masks or peels. If you find yourself a
little heavy-handed, you can even use this brush to apply your blushes
or bronzers instead of a Kabuki. This brush is very multi-talented!
Now that you're in the know about brushes, go forth and be fabulous!
