Application of Makeup Brushes

❤ Powder Brush
Best Use: The Round Kabuki can be used with any type of foundation, though it is most commonly used with mineral foundation makeup and powders. The soft round bristle head is designed for large area coverage such as forehead, cheeks, nose and eyes, achieving a flawless finish every time.
How to Use: Dab the bristles into the product and tap the brush against the edge of the container to remove any excess product. Start at the forehead and buff product on in a circular motion moving down to the chin and jawline. Buffing spreads and smooths out the product with quick circular motions. Continue to build upon depending on the coverage you desire.
