With a bevy of brushes on the market, it’s
hard for a girl to know what the essentials are.
Unless you’re a professional
makeup artist like our committee member Bec, the beauty section of the store can be a
little overwhelming.
We sought out some tips from resident girl of cool, Lauren Conrad
on the essential beauty arsenal.
Foundation: A synthetic brush. Can also be used for applying
cream blush.
Concealer: A narrow, synthetic brush with a slightly tapered edge.
Powder: A big, soft natural-fiber brush.
Contouring: A soft brush with a flat, angled edge. Also used for bronzing.
Blush: A soft medium-full round brush. Natural fiber is best.
Eye Shadow: A tapered, flat brush that is good for blending.
Fan Brush: A light brush that is great for highlighter. It’s also good for brushing away loose eye shadow.
Eyeliner: A narrow, angled brush for applying gel liner or shadow as liner.
Eyelash and Brow Comb: The side with the small, plastic comb is used for removing mascara clumps from lashes. The bristled side is for grooming eyebrows.
Eyebrow: A firm, angled brush used for filling in eyebrows with brow powder. Go for something with coarser bristles.
