Brushes Part II: Face

Essentials aside, t

here are lots of other options out there to expand your application possibilities.

There are billions of different styles, but here are my chosen favorites for the face:

Foundation

for quick and easy application and maximum blending power.

Sigma F60

MAC 190

Sephora Collection #47

Concealer

Fluffier natural hair brushes give a more even,

natural finish and are much faster and easier to use

MAC 224

(most people use this for eyeshadow, but I use it for both!)

Blush

I love a smaller blush brush, for more precise application,

with pretty sparse bristling for sheer application that can be built upon.

MAC 116

Highlighter/Bronzer

Domed, soft, densely fibered white goat hair brushes hold onto product

for a targeted but blended application

Cover FX #160

Dual fibered, flat brushes distribute color widely and evenly

MAC 187

Powder

Big and fluffy, but not TOO big and fluffy,

with soft, sparse fibers allows powder to be dusted over a large area lightly without caking.

Sigma F15
