What kind of bristle material is good for loose powder brush

Among all makeup brushes, the order of hair preciousness is mink, squirrel (including Canadian squirrel, gray squirrel, blue-bellied squirrel, etc.), horse hair, wool, fiber hair. There is no such thing as good or bad. It depends on what kind of makeup you need:

1. If you like natural and soft makeup, or your skin is allergic and fragile, then it is better to choose a brush with soft bristles. The first choice is gray squirrel hair, and the second best pony hair is also good. Because the bristles are soft, less elastic, and have relatively weak powder-grabbing ability, you won't take up a lot of powder each time, and it is easy to control when coloring. Apply a small amount on your face each time to achieve a very natural blending effect. Recommended brushes include Shu Uemura No. 20 pony hair blush brush, lunasol and Shiseido's gray squirrel hair blush brushes, and annasui's shy pony hair blush brush.

2. If you need a strong and bright color makeup, and your makeup skills are OK, you can choose a slightly harder blush brush. This kind of blush brush can pick up more powder, use a precise color range, and apply makeup quickly. It requires a higher level of control over the position and shape of the blush. You can choose a thick wool texture. The best choice is the Hakuhodo S110 series blush brush, followed by the BOBBIBROWN blush brush (although it is also made of horse hair, it is relatively hard). The MAC blush brush is harder. There are also many brands of nylon fiber brushes of good quality. The fiber brush is easy to maintain, and the bristles are moderately soft, hard, and elastic. As for the medium and fine blush brushes, the bristles are a little softer, and the difference is not much, and they are all made of wool.

Of course, some brands of large eye shadow brushes can be used as local blush brushes, such as Shu Uemura's No. 15 sable eye shadow brush, which is very large and can be used as a blush brush. Since the price is over 1,000, it is quite luxurious. Hakuhodo also has a blush brush of more than 1,000, which is mushroom-shaped and the handle is made of ebony, so it is very precious. Small blush brushes are also popular in Korea at present, because they are more precise and may become a popular trend in the future.

My personal suggestion is that if you are a beginner, you can still buy a brush made of gray squirrel hair. Many imitations and unknown brands occasionally have high-quality gray squirrel hair products at an acceptable price.

How to use loose powder brush to apply loose powder

Loose powder brush is a kind of makeup tool, which is generally divided into two types according to its texture: animal hair and artificial hair. Dip it in loose powder and brush it on the face with foundation, which is softer and more natural than using a powder puff.

A powder brush is a makeup tool used to set makeup. It is generally divided into two types according to its texture: animal hair and artificial hair. Dip it in loose powder and apply it to the face with foundation. It is softer and more natural than using a powder puff, and can apply the powder very evenly. It can also be used to set makeup, and can also be used to brush away excess loose powder. The advantage of using a powder brush to set makeup is that the setting effect is light, making the makeup look natural and not artificial, and it saves the amount of loose powder.

How to use

When using a powder brush, you can lightly pick up loose powder, filter out excess powder, and then gently apply it on your face to set the makeup. Finally, brush off excess powder on the face from top to bottom. Especially when applying powder to the neck, shoulders, chest, back and other parts, using a powder brush is unmatched by other makeup tools. Remember not to poke the tip of the brush directly on the face when using it, but use the side of the brush to gently sweep it on the face.

Tips

The thick-bristled loose powder brush can pick up loose powder at 360 degrees, sweep out a super natural rounded makeup, and evenly blend the loose powder and foundation to make the makeup look more natural. We can use it instead of a powder puff, and it can apply makeup more evenly than a powder puff, showing a smooth skin texture.

Tips

The best loose powder brush should be made of natural hair. The soft and fit brush head can make the loose powder fit the skin better, making the makeup more lasting and natural.

How to clean the powder brush

There are two cleaning methods: water washing and loose powder. Brushes with different bristles have different cleaning methods.

There are two main types of brush hair:

Animal hair: It is used with dry powder cosmetics. Such as loose powder brushes, blush brushes, eye shadow brushes, etc. Do not wash with water frequently, which will damage the hair. In daily life, ladies use it by themselves, so it is enough to wash it with water detergent once a month. If you want to change the color temporarily, you can use the loose powder washing method, and use the same dry powder to remove the powder in our brush.

Man-made fiber: It is used with liquid and paste cosmetics, such as foundation brushes, eyeliner brushes, etc. Wash it casually. Use water to wash the brush. For example, if the foundation brush is used with liquid foundation, it will easily deteriorate, so it is best to wash it every day.

Clean with warm water and detergent

1. Wet the bristles (be careful not to get the mouth of the brush and the joint of the bristles wet), and let the bristles face downward.

2. Pour the cleaning water into your palm and gently push the brush outwards along the direction of the bristles with your fingertips.

3. Use your fingertips to gently push the brush outwards along the direction of the bristles until all traces of makeup are completely removed, and then rinse with water.

4. After washing, place a towel or paper towel on the table to absorb moisture, tidy up the bristles, and then dry in a cool place.

5. After drying, gently rub the bristles with your hands, and then flick them with your fingers to make them fluffy again. If you don't use the brush for a while, you can put it upside down in the bottle (or bag).

Precautions

1. Let it dry naturally. Do not use a hair dryer to dry it or put it in the sun to dry it, otherwise it may damage the material. After washing, you can also soak it in hair conditioner to make the bristles softer.

2. Don't wash the joint of the brush handle. The joint contacts the wooden handle and is difficult to dry, which can easily cause loosening. Try not to get the sticky parts of the brush mouth wet!

3. Be sure to wash along the direction of hair growth, otherwise it will damage the hair.
