New Foundation Brush
(actual size)
Inspired by the Japanese traditional MAIKO make-up brush used by Geishas, this foundation brush is one of its kind. It can be used with liquid or powder foundations, however a quick clean needs to happen during the transition between the two. Its short length (shorter than the length of most pens) makes it purse friendly and gives you great control during application (not having to worry about the end of the brush tapping on your mirror when getting up close). The texture feels similar to a small kabuki brush, very soft and not harsh on your skin.
The hairs of the brush is trimmed with a slight angle, this allows for easy spreading motions. The angle compliments the shape of your face which will prevent you from lifting your arm up too high to apply. The firm design encourages slight pressing motions when first applying your liquid foundation,
I recommend -
1. A firm press on the forehead, each cheek, and chin to place the foundation on your skin
2. Followed by a twisting motion with your brush to gradually spread the product,
3. Finally paint the foundation outward from the centre of your face for a flawless application.
The brush however is quite hard to clean if you're looking at getting it spotless. I have to soak it in some liquid brush cleaner first, then get the access off by painting on a tissue a few times.
