Makeup Brushes matter for a flawless appearance
Makeup brushes are the best way to apply makeup. There are several brushes for different areas of the face.
I’d like to give a BIG shoutout to my mom for helping me with my brush set collection 🙌🏼 I can’t even keep count of how many brushes I have for my personal self and my brushes for my makeup clients. All I know is………. I’m blessed to have so many and I love them all!!!!!!!!!!
Let’s start with the basics, My favorite type of foundation brush is a flat/paddle brush. It’s such a great foundation brush for liquid foundation in my opinion. I have to admit though it’s so cool to have many options. Some people prefer to use a stippling or Kabuki brush, which are very popular as well. No matter what type of makeup brush you may use the quality and maintenance is so important. Having a good makeup brush is the key to flawless application of makeup and guess what else?! It helps with great skin care. Now just because I said good quality is important that doesn’t mean that your spending has to be over the top! There are some really great brands of makeup brushes that are inexpensive and worthy! You want to keep a regular routine of cleaning your makeup brushes so that they will last longer AND bacteria won’t grow on the brushes. I wash my own personal makeup brushes every other day and when I’m using my client brushes as an makeup artist I clean them after every client. I first use some really great makeup brush cleansing wipes and then once I’m done I wash them all together with a brush cleanser. The best makeup brush cleanser I’ve come across so far would be BeautyBlender. It’s ingredients are simple and it’s free of dyes and skin irritants. Don’t forget a cleansing brush glove. This is a fast and effective way of cleaning your brushes. You want to be able to let your makeup brushes do all the work and make a beautiful presentation. Some makeup brushes will shed and become aggravating and it gets worse when you try to keep them clean so just consider being a little picky when it comes to picking out the right brushes. It takes some getting out of your comfort zone to try different brushes and see how you like them. I would recommend trying a few brushes of each to figure out what you like best!
let’s just sum this up really fast.
- Investing in good quality makeup brushes go a long way but doesn’t have to be expensive
- Figure out what brushes you love working with the best and let the brushes do the rest!
- How often are you cleaning your brushes? Clean your brushes every week according to how often you use them.
These are things you should go by when picking out makeup brushes and keeping your skin clean and applying flawless makeup
