About this deal

I’m not a big believer in rules, especially considering just how much has changed in the makeup world since I went to makeup school. While some makeup brushes are better suited to some applications than others, consider this a loose guideline. Reload the brush with powder if necessary. If you’ve overapplied powder, wipe the brush clean with a dry towel and then move it over your face in a circular buffing motion to remove the extra powder. To use: Tap or pat the side of the brush into your eyeshadow of choice. Apply the eyeshadow to your lid by pressing or tapping the brush against it. Use the top of the brush to blend out the edges or to apply the shadow under the lower lash line.

With the right brush, however, you can achieve a flawless, radiant finish that accentuates your features and complements your skin tone.

Is a contour brush the same as a blush brush?

I highly recommend that you play around and try both makeup brushes and sponges for various applications, so you can find out what works best for you. You’re allowed to use artist brushes as makeup brushes, as long as you wash them first! They don’t tend to look as elegant as traditional makeup brushes, but they can work beautifully. One of my favorite blending brushes was a super soft and very yielding squirrel hair brush that I bought at an art store, for example!

If you want to slim your chin, take the brush and make parentheses around it. And finally, add some darker lines on either side of your jaw bone. Now, your face should be mapped out with the darker contrast. To use: If you do happen to own one of these makeup brushes you can still use it if you like. You can dispense foundation directly on the brush, and then tap it on the skin to transfer a large amount or drag it on in downward motions to sort of paint the skin with it. Use a damp sponge to blend out any streaks or visible brush strokes. Then, lightly sweep the brush along your cheekbones in an upward and outward motion, following the natural contours of your face. Be sure to blend well for a seamless finish. If you want a more intense look, add more product and build up the color gradually.For creating the illusion of depth and adding a dramatic contrast to your base lid color.

For an oval face: Apply blush to the apples of your cheeks and blend out towards your temples for a natural, balanced look. If you want to minimize your forehead, trace the area with the angled contour brush near your hairline.

The finer details

For a perfectly smooth foundation application, start in the middle of your face (cheeks and T-zone) and apply your foundation outward in smooth, even strokes to prevent harsh makeup lines around the edges of your jawline and hairline. If you're using a mineral or powder foundation, swirl and buff the bristles to work the product into the skin. To use: Swirl the brush in your powder container to load it up. Tap off the excess onto a tissue, and then use a tapping motion to apply the powder all over your face. The reason for the tapping motion is that you want to press the powder into the face. If you were to swipe the brush over the face you would end moving your unset foundation around, potentially removing it or causing streaking. Remember to control your pressure, and to start off gentle. Using more pressure when applying products will deposit more on your skin while using more pressure while blending will take more product off, so remember to adjust your pressure slowly and gently until you achieve the effect you want.
