 01. Foundation paddle brush

A paddle brush is a standard foundation brush. It’s a dense brush that is flat in the shape of a paddle. Most makeup artists prefer this brush for base makeup application as this provides maximum coverage. However, if you’re a beginner, you might have a hard time with this brush. Paddle brushes tend to leave streaks if used incorrectly. The key is to gently pat the base makeup in the skin after the products have been spread around evenly. This brush works well with creams and liquids.

 

02. Kabuki brush

A kabuki brush is a dense buffing brush with a flat top. It’s generally used to blend liquid or cream foundations. Similar to a paddle brush, kabuki brushes provide great coverage. Since the bristles are so tightly packed together, the brush doesn’t absorb much product and spreads your makeup seamlessly. All you have to do is dot your foundation on your face and blend it out with small, circular motions. This brush works excellently with creams, liquids and powders.

 

03.Powder brush

Powder brushes are big, fluffy brushes to apply powders. The bristles of powder brushes are loosely packed so it doesn’t add too much product in one spot. They’re usually quite big and fluffy and that makes powder application very quick. These do not work with creams and liquids. Cream and liquid blushes can be applied using kabuki brushes.

04. Blush brush

A blush brush is a smaller version of a powder brush. Hence, similar to a powder brush, a blush brush is fluffy and performs in a similar manner. The size of a blush brush makes it ideal to place blush right on the apples of the cheeks to rosy em up!

05. Flat eyeshadow brush

A flat eyeshadow brush is a micro version of a paddle brush. It’s flat and moderately dense. This is used to press eyeshadow pigment onto the eyelids. This brush can be used for cream, liquid or powder eyeshadows.
