If you find that your foundation is looking patchy a few hours after application, or that your blusher seemingly disappears by midday, it might not be the products themselves that are to blame. You might be using the wrong makeup brushes to apply them. Different densities, lengths, and shapes of brushes can have a significant impact on how your makeup looks and how long it lasts throughout the day and brushes are designed to be used with specific formulas.
Different densities, lengths, and shapes of brushes can have a significant impact on how your makeup looks
Let’s break it down. First, there’s stippling brushes, which typically feature a flat, round shape and are known for their ability to blend liquid or cream products evenly onto the skin, resulting in a natural, airbrushed finish.
Then, there are fluffy, domed brushes characterised by soft, densely packed bristles and a large, rounded shape. They are specifically designed for applying loose or pressed powder products to the face, ensuring an even and natural-looking finish.
There’s also angled brushes, which typically have a tapered shape making them particularly useful for contouring and highlighting, as well as applying concealer to hard-to-reach areas like the inner corners of eyes.
To take the hassle out of deciding which brushes you need, we created the ultimate brush kit - the Luxe Mini Makeup Brush Set: Five exceptional brushes for face and eyes using artist-quality vegan fibres, in a chic pale gold case which we’ve custom-designed after years of toting makeup around. The case has two compartments: one for makeup, the other with a mesh, breathable lining for your brushes.
