These brushes are different from the usual sponge and your fingers because they have a number of advantages.
- Naturalness. Natural makeup can only be done with a brush. The difference of the brush from other means is that the brush does not smear the cream, but gently drives it into the skin. As a result, it seems that the cream literally merged with the skin.
- Accuracy. Women perfectly know how to apply a cream in the neck and hair. For some reason, it is in this place that the cream begins to lie not in an even layer, but in pieces. The brush helps to cope with this problem. She perfectly shades the cream, as a result of which there are no visible boundaries.
- Economical. If you use a sponge or palm, part of the cream, of course, is lost by soaking in them. If you use a brush, you will get an excellent result, because the whole cream is neatly distributed across the face. This is a significant advantage. Especially if you use expensive tonal means.
Choose the right brush for foundation
So how to choose the right brush, with the advantages described above? Really simple. During the purchase you need to pay attention to the following details:
