All You Need To Know About Makeup Brushes

Foundation brushes:

A foundation brush is meant to apply your base face makeup, usually your foundation or CC/BB cream. A good foundation brush makes your makeup look flawless, with minimal effort required on your part.

 

How to use a foundation brush?

Foundation brushes are used for application when there is a need to focus on a detail area, or when you want to use a sheer finish and give a wash over the skin. If the skin is really dry, then only use damp brushes when applying. 

Is applying foundation with a brush better?

Foundation makeup brushes are a lot more bendable and can be extremely precise when it comes to the application of foundation. Makeup brushes are also ideal if you’re the kind of person who prefers powder to liquid foundation—that’s how versatile brushes are. It’s also way easier to build coverage with a makeup brush.

Do you wash the foundation brush every time?

So, how often should you be washing your makeup brushes? For brushes used frequently with liquid formulas like foundation and concealer, you might be surprised: These should really be cleaned once a week. For other brushes used for powder blush and eyeshadow, once every two weeks is preferable.

How do I know if my makeup brushes are good quality?

Quality brushes should feel soft and gentle against your skin. If a brush feels rough and scratchy, then it is of low quality and should not be used on your skin. If it’s also a brush with bristles that fall out all the time, it is not of good quality.

What brushes to use to apply foundation?

Tapered foundation brushes are usually flat, less full in form, with a gentle taper. These brushes are best for liquid foundation and other liquid products.
