Selecting a brush for mineral foundation is an important task. As essential as it is to find the right foundation, it’s just as important to choose the right application tools. Using the right brush to apply makeup makes a big difference in how your mineral foundation looks on your skin. Your application tool affects coverage and can add texture to the finish of your makeup, so you want to choose a tool that will work with your formula to give you even coverage and a flawless finish.
To get the biggest bang for your buck, invest in high-quality brushes because they will last longer. By purchasing inexpensive, poor quality brushes, you’ll find yourself needing to replace them more often. Properly taking care of a well-made brush will make it last several years!
Natural hair brushes were once the reliable choice for mineral powder foundation because of how well the powder clung to the brush. However, the technology behind synthetic brushes has drastically improved in recent history, influencing us to redesign our entire brush category to feature all synthetic brushes. These brushes have increased softness which aids in feel and application, as well as the ability to lightly grip product like powders and gently distribute over the skin. Another added benefit of synthetic brushes is that they do not pose the same allergy concerns as natural brushes.
