May 20, 2017

 Because awesome makeup starts with awesome makeup brushes...



By Rebecca Fearn, Glamour

There are so many makeup brushes around, it can often be difficult to know which ones are worth the money and what they all do.

Be it makeup brushes for the face - including bronzer, blusher or foundation - or eye makeup, we've picked out the best of the best and revealed where each should be used regardless of what they are originally designed for.

Take a look at our best makeup brush guide here...

 
Giorgio Armani Shaping Foundation Brush, £60
Best for: Liquid foundation application
For easy application of any liquid foundations. The fibers are firm and guarantee a seamless end.


 
Laura Mercier Flat Eye Liner Brush, £22.50
Best for: Liquid and gel eyeliners
For those looking for a finish as close to the lash line as possible when doing their eyeliner. Great for sharp edges and wings as well.

Marc Jacobs The Bronze Bronzer Brush, £52
Best for: All-over bronzer

This large, fairly dense brush is perfect if you like to build up layers of bronzer all over the face, as opposed to a more targeted, contoured tan.
Best for: Applying gel eyeliner or eyebrow products
A delicate, thin brush is ideal for applying gel liner accurately, or for putting powder on your brows.

Benefit Hoola Brush, £17.50
Best for: Contour

As well as looking rather gorgeous, Benefit's Hoola bronzer brush is gorgeously tapered and perfect for getting in the hollows of your cheeks.

Mac 217 Brush, £20
Best for: Eyeshadow blending

This iconic brush is one of the most popular eyeshadow blenders around. It's fluffy, soft and shaped to reach the crease of your eye sockets.

Best for: Blusher
If you prefer to apply your blush with a larger, fluffy brush, this is one of the very best - plus, it's affordable.
Best for: All-over bronzer

Tom Ford's bronzing tool is the epitome of luxury. From its minimalistic design to the large fluffy brush end, this is one of the best out there. Yes it's expensive, but with care it will last you a lifetime.

          bareMinerals Perfecting Face Brush, £24 
          Best for: Foundation or cream blush
          bareMinerals' bestselling brush is unique in its shape and design. It's perfect for applying your 
          liquid foundation, as the product sits neatly within the centre.


Hourglass No.1 Brush, £48
Best for: All-over bronzer or powder
[post_ads_2]
Slightly less dense than other bronzer brushers, this doubles up as a great tool for translucent powder on the t-zone.
 
Zoeva Dome Concealer Brush, £9
Best for: Concealer

If you really want seamless concealer application for blemishes or problem areas, a soft dome-shaped brush is vital. This Zoeva one is a GLAMOUR favourite.
 
 
NARS Ita Brush, £43
Best for: Contour
[post_ads_2]
This flat, dense brush makes contouring easy, even for beginners. Be sure to blend out the tan line afterwards for seamless cheekbones.
 
 
SUQQU Cheek Brush, £85
Best for: Blusher

If you like using a smaller brush for your blusher, SUQQU's is one of the best. Super soft, luxurious and sleek-looking, you will love having this in your kit.
 
 
Callanberry Fluff Powder Brush, £31.25
Best for: Targeted powder
[post_ads_2]
Soft, chic-looking and perfectly shaped, this brush is great for applying powder in delicate areas such as under the eyes.
 
 
Louise Young LY51, £20
Best for: Contouring or highlighting

We adore Louise Young brushes. This tool is small enough to get into all of the areas you would need to create shade or light.
 
 
Stila One Step Complexion Brush, £21
Best for: Concealer or colour corrector application
[post_ads_2]
Stila's double-ended brush can be used with concealer under the eyes or the corresponding Stila colour-correct palette. It's great for blending in creamy consistences.
 
 
Charlotte Tilbury Powder and Sculpt Brush, £35
Best for: Contour

Loved by bloggers and beauty editors alike, Charlotte's powder and sculpt brush works side-by-side with her bronzing and highlighting palette. It's tapered and small enough to get into the hollows of your cheeks.
 
Original Beauty Blender, £16
Best for: Foundation
[post_ads_2]
This long-standing favourite is a must-have for any beauty junkie. It's not too expensive compared to many other foundation brushes, either.
 
 
RMK Face Colour Brush, £32
Best for: Contour

All RMK brushes are brilliant, but this angled contour brush is one of our favourites.
 
Sigma E55 Brush at Love Makeup, £9.50
Best for: Eyeshadow application

Sigma brushes are some of the best in the business, and this soft, flat eye brush is ideal for patting on your eyeshadow before blending it out.
