Brushes For Contouring
“The bristles are soft yet effective for blending, and the handles have a sturdy, comfortable grip. Each brush serves its purpose well, from applying foundation to precision contouring”
Powder Contour Brushes
“A very heavy, well made foundation brush. It is specifically made for liquid foundation so can't really be used for powder, but it is amazing with the Lock-It Liquid Foundation”
Best Makeup Brushes
“These brushes are soft and apply makeup nicely . I have always loved a good Sephora makeup brush”
Makeup Artist Brushes
“Fenty has some beautiful soft brushes, but I find myself not reaching for it, this is not a must have brush for me, this not my fave concealer brush. ”
Professional Makeup Brushes
“This contour wand is a must-have for anyone looking to achieve a professional and flawless contour effortlessly”
Full Face Makeup Brushes
“I love using this one for creams since it is so dense and it always gives a full coverage look. If I’m using liquid foundation I’ll usually dot it on my face first and then blend out with the brush so it doesn’t get stuck in the bristles which is common with dense brushes”
Angled Makeup Brushes
“Pretty easy to use. I use the angle brush in upward strokes, then fill in with pencil, then glide the angle along the brow line in a curve”
Makeup Oval Brush
“I LOVE THIS BRUSH it is the perfect size and density needed to properly blend in my foundation and the shape isn’t circular , I feel it’s more of an oval (if that makes sense) so it spreads out my product evenly around my jawline and eye area”
Contour Bronzer
“I love the shade - is contour and bronzer in one... this is one of the first contours that I have used that haven't disrupted the makeup underneath - blended super well into my estee Lauder double wear”
Black Makeup Brushes
“This bronzer brush from Sephora is my favorite among all the brushes that I have”
