Foundation Brush
There are two main types of foundation
brushes. The first (mostly used for liquids) has short, puffy bristles that end
in a flat edge. Out of that edge are longer bristles, which smoothly blend the
foundation into your face. The other (used for liquids and creams) is a more
standard looking artist's brush. Its bristles are soft, compact and end in a
shallow point.
Powder Brush
The most well-known makeup brush is the
powder brush. It is used to either dust loose powder onto your face or to brush
off existing powder. This brush usually has relatively short, soft bristles.
The softest of these are made from raccoon or squirrel hair.
Eyeshadow Brushes
Eyeshadow brushes can come in a variety of
shapes and sizes depending on your needs. Usually a smaller bush is used to
line the crease of the eyelid, a mid-sized one for the surface of the eyelid
and a larger one for adding highlight to the brow bone. These brushes are
fluffy for powdered eyeshadow or silky for liquid.
Blush Brush
Blush brushes are similar to powder
brushes, but are usually a bit smaller. They have medium-length, fluffy
bristles that help evenly apply blush onto your face.
Lip Brush
The small lip brushes have diamond-shaped
bristles and are designed to apply lipstick with a smooth, even coverage.
Kabuki Brush
The kabuki brush has a short handle and
lots of soft, firmly packed bristles. They are typically used to apply mineral
makeup or facial powder. Kabuki brushes are designed to buff powders and minerals
into the skin, but can remove too much if used as a powder brush.
Angle Brush
The angle brush's bristles are cut at an
angle instead of straight across. The result is a brush with a fairly chiseled
edge and pointed end. Fluffy angle brushes are often used for working makeup
into the crease of the eyelid, while silky ones are used to apply eyeliner and
sometimes lipstick.
