Makeup Brushes Set: Apply Cosmetics Like a Professional
Ever find yourself staring at a mirror and your iPhone wondering why your beauty look doesn’t quite resemble each other? It happens loves, we take aim, we try and at times find we could use a wee bit more help. If you want makeup that looks like it was designed by a pro then you need to start to think and act like one. However, for some of us beauty fanatics, beauty school is not always in the cards. Nevertheless, we talked to several makeup school teachers to find out how to get pro makeup looks with average and at times below average (LOL that’s some of us here at 1966) skills. Today, we are going to gab about why to invest in a high quality makeup brushes set and how to work such tools to your advantage… minus the tuition!
Makeup Brushes Set: Apply Cosmetics Like a Professional
Can you build a modern house without any nails or a hammer? Possibly, but having the right tools will make the job easier and increase durability. Those same principles apply with makeup application. The first thing you will learn when attending beauty school is that having decent tools will make all the difference.
Moreover, this is true regardless of skill level. This means that if you improve the quality of tools and cosmetics used, you will automatically improve the look of your makeup. That’s improvement without even improving your skill set. Crazy!
Okay, so step one. What types of brushes should be apart of your high quality makeup brushes set? In total you will need 8 different brushes. Now of course in time you may acquire more brushes but these are the staples you need in order to begin:
- Foundation Brush
- Fluffy Powder Brush
- Concealer Brush
- Small Blending Brush
- Lip Brush
- Blush Brush
- Precision Angle Brush
- Flat Eyeshadow Brush
Now you have your list of what to purchase. When buying a makeup brushes set remember that going extremely cheap can possibly work against you. That is because low budget sets can be made with low quality materials. You may find that these types of brushes will shed tons and very soon lose their effectiveness. However, do not think you need to max out a credit card to get a decent set. There are plenty in the $25-$70 range that will suit just fine.
Look for beauty conventions and events that roll in town. At events such as IMATS it is very possible to score great deals on makeup brushes sets as well as cosmetics in general. Therefore, you will be able to kill two birds at one time. Picking up everything you need without breaking the bank.
Makeup Brushes Set – How to Utilize Properly
We find ourselves going back to the house building analogy. An electric saw can be very helpful on a construction project, but if used incorrectly a disaster could occur. Moreover, buying the right tools is one yet knowing how to use them is another.
When you use a makeup brush where do you usually place your hand or fingers? Towards the bristles? Maybe, somewhere towards the other end? The correct way will help ensure that you apply product evenly. Always remember that if you hold a brush closer to the barrel (the silver, chrome like section found right beneath the bristles) the more pressure you put on the brush head.
To apply makeup evenly you will want to hold each brush right in the center of the brush’s handle. This will ensure that the pressure is not too heavy or too light. This may feel odd to you at first but with practice your technique will improve along with beauty looks.
