Makeup brushes, reviews

The very magic wands, without which it is almost impossible to create the perfect makeup, should be in the arsenal of every girl. Naturally, experts recommend giving preference to natural brushes: they are practically non-allergenic, durable and do not deteriorate after washing.

But if you want to buy brushes made of artificial material, pay attention to the softness of the fleecy part and how it is attached: often inexpensive brushes break, for example, with careful shading.

1. An eyeliner brush. Any liquid eyeliner in a jar will not fall on the lash line without a special eyeliner brush, with which you can easily pick up the product from the jar and draw a graceful arrow. For example: SIGMA E10, 1400 rubles.

2. Brush for applying shadows. The same thing happens with shadows. The eyeshadow palette, which does not have a special brush, is specially made so that everyone can choose a brush for applying shadows to their liking. For example: JUST MAKE UP No. 22, 385 rubles.

3. Brush for blending shadows. But in shading, a brush with a beveled bristle will help us to give shade. The correct angle – and this assistant will cope one hundred percent! For example: MANLY PRO, 560 rubles.

4. Brush for applying the base. The base under the shadow is applied to the movable eyelid and serves to ensure that any shadows last all day and do not roll off. With this brush, you can easily apply the product all over your eyelid in seconds. Some professionals use this brush for small areas such as the highlighter on the nose and over the upper lip to form a proper Cupid bow. For example: MAC Brush MEDIUM ANGLED SHADING BRUSH # 275, 1320 rubles.

5. Brush for creating “smoky” makeup… The brush gives a light, weightless finish. Natural pile is ideal. The brush can be used to blend or create smoky makeup. For example: Mac Brush EYE SHADING BRUSH # 239, 1690 rubles.

6. Small beveled brush. Suitable for shaping eyebrows and drawing the crease of the eyelid. Artificial pile is best. The make-up brush is dense, made of synthetic hypoallergenic fibers. The tip of the brush is shaped like a perfect angle and is very flexible. For example: MAC Brush SMALL ANGLE BRUSH # 263, 1600 rubles.

7. Pencil and eyeliner blending brush… The brush works like a sponge: easily blends the pencil line thanks to the short and elastic bristle. The tip is slightly rounded in the shape of a paddle, the brush itself is rather small and short, somewhat reminiscent of a lip brush. For example: MAC Brush SMALL SHADER BRUSH # 231, 1400 rubles.

8. Brush for drawing fine lines. The flat nylon brush, thanks to its shape, is ideal for drawing super fine lines. Can be used for liquid and creamy textures as well as dry ones. With this brush, you can apply shadows, large strokes or short lines in one motion. For example: MAC Brush FLAT DEFINER BRUSH # 212, 1600 rubles.

9. Brush for eyelashes. The action of this brush is almost the same as that of an eyebrow comb. To keep the eyelashes even and separated, you can comb them with a similar brush before applying mascara. For example: JUST MAKE UP No. 10, 110 rubles.

1. Brush for tone. The best option for applying a dense foundation is a flat brush with synthetic bristles, since natural bristles will absorb the agent into themselves, and the consumption will not justify the result. For example: DIVAGE, tone brush, 300 rubles.

2. Concealer brush. With this brush, you can easily hide bruises under the eyes, skin imperfections, as well as apply a corrector to the nose. The size of the brush is 2-3 times smaller than the tone brush, thus it can work on “hard-to-reach” places on the face, where a large brush cannot reach. For example: DREAM MINERALS № 29, 300 rubles.

3. Powder brush. Powder brushes come in a variety of sizes, but medium bristle lengths are more versatile as a large brush will make it difficult to apply powder to small areas of skin. Brushes with long hairs are perfect for the décolleté area. For example: MANLY PRO, powder brush, 980 rubles.

4. Blush brush. The basic rule of this brush is softness. The application of blush should be neat and light, with a hard bristle it is almost impossible to apply the product. Brushes with chamfered bristles work well. It is also important that the blush should be applied only over the powder, in order to avoid stains and uneven distribution. For example: BELLÁPIERRE Blush Brush, 1550 rubles.

5. Brush for highlighter. Our favorite product will need a separate brush too! Apply the product on the cheekbones, in the corners of the eyes, nose, chin and above the upper lip. For example: SIGMA F35, 1900 rubles.

6. Brush for contouring. Facial contouring helps us to emphasize our face shape and hide some imperfections, such as facial asymmetry. The basic principle of applying a contour product is to lighten and darken the desired parts of the face. The correct brush is indispensable here, it should be dense and not rigid when applying the product. For example: Yves Rocher, contour brush, 640 rubles.

7. Universal brush. And even this is in the cosmetic world! With a wide, universal brush, you can first apply the base, then the foundation, distribute the blush and even the highlighter. And all with one brush. Convenience is paramount. For example: BECCA, The One Perfecting Brush, 5000 rubles.

8. Brush to complete the makeup. This brush is very convenient to use, as it will help us remove excess makeup, for example, the remnants of shadow under the eyes. Also, this brush can be used to apply a fixing mineral powder. The fan-shaped form allows you to deliver the product to all places, hard-to-reach places on the face. For example: fan brush, DIVAGE, 290 rubles.

1. Paint brush… This brush is useful for those who are used to dyeing their eyebrows at home, its beveled villi are designed to draw hairs in the eyebrows that are difficult to get. For example: a brush for coloring eyebrows, REFECTOCIL, 200 rubles.

2. Brush for eyebrow makeup. The brush perfectly paints the brow and distributes the hairs in the desired direction. For example: BILLION DOLLAR BROWS Brow Brush, 1400 rubles.

1. Lip contour brush. In order for the lips to look contoured and their shape is not lost against the background of all the makeup, you just need to type lipstick on a similar brush and draw the outline of your lips. For example: ARTDECO Lip Brush, 379 rubles.

2. Brush for applying lipstick or lip gloss. The same principle of a set of a cosmetic product is used here, only we perform this stage after drawing the contour. With this brush, we simply paint over our lips evenly, without going over the edges, and give them a rich color. For example: DREAM MINERALS No. 8, 449 rubles.
