![]() ![]() Use the lip brush to put the lipstick on your lips and to clean up the edges with a concealer. Add a little brow gel to keep everything in place and you're good to go!įor a bold red lip look like the Bachelorette's Kaitlyn Bristowe's you can use the Bdellium Tools #542 Bold Lip Brush. After you've created the shape you're happy with, lightly comb your brush hairs up and out. When you get to the arch and outer corner of your brow, brush the hairs down and then use that same flicking technique to follow your natural brow hairs to fill in and define the shape of your brow even more. Use the tiniest amount of product to flick little brush hair shapes up and out, following your natural brow hairs. To use this brush first comb your brow hairs up and out, and then add a little bit of tinted brow gel to the flat liner brush. I also love that this brush is dual sided with a mascara spool on the end that you can use to comb out your brows to keep them looking natural. It's even more stiff and dense, which really allows you to have the most control when creating little hair strokes and defining the shape of your brow. You can use your MAC #263 angle liner brush to do your brows, but I actually prefer this brush for brows. By doing this you're basically dragging the colour from the outside in. Use a press and sweep technique to apply liner. That way it will hug the shape of your eye best. You're going to start by keeping the longest side towards the inner corner of your eye and flip it when it hits about half way and start it at the outer corner of your eye and drag it to the centre. This brush is shaped just like the angled blush brush so it's going to fit the shape of your eye, which is basically a dome. Using a dry liner brush with a dry shadow is going to create a softer liner look, while using a wet liner brush is going to create a bolder more pigmented and precise liner look. Use it dry or wet with shadow depending on how bold and how pigmented you want the liner to be. Creams and gels can also damage natural brush hairs so stick to synthetic brushes for your creams and gels, but you can use this brush with any product it's also great for creating a softer liner with a shadow. It's best to use synthetic brushes for creams and gel liners because the brush doesn't absorb the product like a natural hair brush would. It's flat, dense, angled and synthetic which makes it ideal for winged liners and other liners. This is my favourite angle brush because it keeps its shape so well and it's super easy to work with. You need a flat angled liner brush is perfect for liner, of course, but you can even use this brush for your brows because it will give you the most precise line and you're going to want that for any detail work. To use highlighter make sure your brush is clean (wipe off all of the colour from the brush onto a paper towel) and dip the brush into the highlighter colour and sweep it over the area you want to pull focus to, like the top of the cheekbones. Contour under the jawline and under the cheekbones for definition. Tap it out to get rid of any excess powder (it's best to start out lighter and build up to the amount you want) and then sweep the brush on the area you want to have recede, using little round circular motions to blend out. ![]() To contour, dip the brush in a shade a few shades deeper than your natural skin tone. Its slight dome shape is my favourite shape for blending. This is my favourite contour brush because it's fluffy yet still dense enough to give you the colour payoff and blends out colour really well. On the flip side, it can also help minimize or re-shape features. ![]() This brush is great for contouring and highlighting, both of which can really emphasize your features be it your cheekbones, jawline or nose. Keep in mind that the bigger the brush is, the more dispersed your powder/colour will be, which is why I don't recommend using your all over powder brush (mentioned above) for blush the denser a brush the more concentrated your colour will be. Use a sweeping and tapping motion when applying blush with this brush. Just make sure you have the shortest bristles on the centre of your cheek, where your cheekbone juts out the highest and have the longer bristles furthest away from the centre of your cheekbone. Don't be afraid of it being an angled brush, that makes it even easier to work this brush hugs the angles of your cheek. When I reach for blush brushes I've noticed I always go with this one over my fluffier blush brushes because it really allows me to deposit a good amount of colour where I want, and it's still fluffy enough to blend it out. Even if you use foundation to cancel out or cover redness, you still need to add a little colour to the apples of your cheeks to prevent yourself from being washed out. ![]()
