I should mention, you by no means have to use this many brushes. This is why bronzer brushes typically have long, fluffy bristles and an eyeshadow smudge brush will have extremely short, tightly packed bristles.Īnd now, here are all my favorite brushes and info on how I use each one. Longer bristles will deposit more sheer pigment and shorter bristles will put down more concentrated pigment. The length of the bristles also determines how much pigmented is deposited. The more densely a brushes bristles are packed, the more product it will deposit.
I find this to be extra important with eye shadow brushes!Ī brush’s “density” refers to how many bristles the brush has and how tightly packed they are at the base, the start of the ferrule.
#USE STIPPLING MAKEUP BRUSH SKIN#
You want to try to find the softest bristles possible, to reduce tugging on your skin with each use. Natural bristle brushes work with powder products. Synthetic bristle brushes work best with cream products and also work well with powder formulas. Natural hair bristles can either be cruelty-free, meaning collected and sanitized from brushing animals living on a farm (the animals are not harmed) or they can come as a by-product of the meat industry. Synthetic fibers are man-made in a lab and natural hair brushes are from animals. Makeup brush bristles can be made of synthetic fibers or natural hairs. TIP | I prefer to use brushes with longer handles, as it’s best to grip brushes closest to the very end (farthest from the bristles), for the softest product application. Foundation brushes especially need to be made well as they get a lot of rotation on the bristles as you blend. The handle and bristles need to be well attached to the ferrule to reduce shedding and get years of use out of a brush. I am constantly testing new brushes and updating this post if any stand out and replace my favorites! MAKEUP BRUSH 101īrushes are made with three parts: a handle, bristles, and the metal section that holds them together, called the ferrule.
I have favorite brushes at every price point, so there is really something for everyone: beginner-friendly brushes, people looking to invest in brushes they’ll own forever, and some amazing deals.
I thought it would be helpful to do a post and video showing each of my favorite brushes for face, eyes, and eyebrows and showing how I use each. It’s so interesting to me to see which makeup brushes I tend to gravitate towards, out of the hundreds and hundreds I have tried, and what makes this brushes stand out.
