The Makeup Brush Guide

It is no secret that makeup is an art. It can define how natural or dramatic your look can be. Makeup tools are essential when perfecting your look. The right tools can be the difference between creating a flawless face and creating a beauty faux pas.

Makeup brushes are necessary tools if you want to best apply your makeup. The right brush allows you to be more accurate with your makeup application while performing techniques such as blending and contouring.

Here’s a hands on guide to perfect these professional tools.

1. Angled Brush: The most common type of contouring brush is the angled brush, used for highlighting your cheekbones effortlessly with either blush or bronzer.

2. Tapered Brush: The tapered brush is used to apply powder, blush or contour shades onto the cheeks and temples. The tip, if held flat on the face, can also be used to apply highlighter on the cheek bones and centre of the nose.

3. Stippling Brush: The duo fibre brush can be used to apply liquid foundation and can also be used to blend cream blush on the apples of the cheeks for a more natural look.
