Kabuki Brush

A kabuki brush is used to apply your base makeup. It works for liquid, creams and powders, all the consistencies. If you’re using a liquid foundation with this, then start by tapping the foundation on your skin with the brush and start blending in small circular strokes.

Big Fluffy Brush

Use a big fluffy brush to powder your skin. After you apply foundation and all your cream and liquid products, make sure to set it all with the help of powder of your choice. Take a large brush and pat the powder on your skin. You can also use the same brush for bronzing and blush to minimise efforts.

Flat Eyeshadow Brush

Flat eyeshadow brushes are to pack on colour on your lids. You can use these for packing shadow on your lid, cutting your crease for that flawless cut crease eyeshadow look or by simply placing colour on your lids before blending it out.

Fluffy Eyeshadow Brushes

Fluffy eyeshadow brushes are used to blend out eyeshadow. These don’t pack pigment the way a flat eyeshadow brush would, but this is what you use to diffuse the harsh edges.

Fan brush

A fan brush is used mostly for highlighter as it gets the highest points of the face, without distributing the product all over the face. These can also be used for very strong and pigmented blush as they give a soft look.
