We’ve all heard that “beauty is in the eye of the beholder”, but when it comes to makeup, beauty is also in the hands of whoever is wielding the best makeup brushes. If you’re a new makeup user or an expert, you know that using the proper makeup brushes can make a huge difference when it comes to application and blending.
Brushes aren’t one-size-fits-all, with different brushes being better suited to different techniques or types of product.
Brushes that have natural hair bristles are fantastic for use with powder products, as they are the softest and fluffiest, and the bristles hold the powdered pigment until you place it on the desired area of your face. Many high-end cosmetic brushes use squirrel hair, however, you can have great results with pony, goat, badger, and sable hair as well!
Synthetic bristle brushes are great for use with liquids and creams, such as liquid foundation, concealer, cream eyeshadows or eyeliners, and cream blush. One downside to synthetic bristle makeup brushes is that they can become stiff over time, making them difficult to use.
There are so many types and brands of makeup brushes on the market that it can be very difficult to choose the best one for your makeup needs. After some thorough testing and investigating, (which we must admit was a fun time!) we’ve come up with a compare and contrast guide that will help you choose the best makeup brush set. Since some of you may be new to makeup, we’ve also included a description of how to use each brush!
Many people think that the key to good makeup only depends on the quality of the makeup, when in reality there are two other factors – the quality of your brush, and your makeup experience. Someone with great makeup products and skill still can only go so far with bad quality brushes!
