Foundation Brush: Use to apply liquid or cream foundation. Also can be use to apply skincare products such as facial mask.

Concealer Brush: Use to apply liquid or cream concealer. Think of this brush as a small version of foundation brush.

Duo Fibere Brush: Multi-funtional brush. Use to apply liquid foundation, powder, liquid and cream blush because they are able to give an airbrushed effect look without much effort.
02114471
Powder Brush: Can be use for loose powder, blush and bronzer. Helps to diffuse the product without smudging the foundation.

Angled / Contour Brush: Can be use for blush and bronzer. Easy application because it's angled and fit perfectly on and under the cheekbone.

Fan Brush: Use for highlighter on cheek as well as dusting away excess/fallout under the eyes.

Kabuki Brush: A large dense flat top brush that use to apply loose powder which help buff skin to a flawless finish.

Beauty Blender: Multi-funtional tool. Use to apply liquid and cream foundation as well as buffing out concealer. I misplaced my original pink beauty blender hence I replaced with a green dupe, a cheaper version.
Eye Brushes:
  • Flat Brush
  • Blending Brush
  • Angled Brush / Eyeliner Brush
  • Smudger Brush
  • Pencil Brush
  • Lash Comb
02114479
Flat brush: A tiny version of foundation brush. Can be use for eyeshadow as it can help to pack product onto our lid.
02114480
Blending brush: A dome shaped brush. They are very loose and fluffy hence it can diffused products giving it a soft blended look. The tip of the brush is also called flower tip.
02114481
Angled / Eyeliner Brush: Use for gel liner because it can create a define line. You can use it for eyeshadow to create a softer eyeliner look.
02114482
Smudger Brush: Helps to smudge pencil eyeliner. It can be use to line the lash. I couldn't find my other smudger brush...the perks of owning too many and losing too many.
02114483
Pencil Brush: A mini blending brush that helps to diffuse and deposit colour easily. Can be use on upper and lower lash line. It also can create a define crease too.
02114484
Lash Comb: Comb out clumpy lashes. Brush side can be use on diffusing brow colour.
Lip Brushes:
  • Angled Brush
  • Flat Brush
02114485
Angeled Brush: Able to create a define line hence it is great for lining outer rim of the lip.
Flat Brush: Mini version of foundation brush. Apply lip product easily.

Many brushes are quite versatile. Such as I can use a concealer brush to apply glitter onto my eyelid, a pencil brush instead of smudger brush to line my lash line. It all depends on your own preferences. Anyway I hope you enjoyed today's "lesson". There will be more post/video on brushes next so do keep a look out!

*There are a few different types of brushes catering for the same properties. Depending on which you prefer to use.
