Face Brushes

What Are Face Brushes?

The main purpose of face brushes is to blend or apply different makeup products on the face. For example, you can apply two similar shades of contour and use a face makeup brush to blend them and achieve a natural and very appealing look. 

You can find a lot of different types of face brushes on the market. They can vary greatly in size, shape, and overall design. Each of the different types is designed to handle a specific task. For example, a concealer brush is ideal for applying concealer. A foundation brush handles foundation application perfectly. A blush brush makes applying any type of blush super easy.

Because there are so many different types, it's difficult to put a concrete price range for all face brushes.

Best Face Brush Type: Foundation Brush, Blush Sets, Contour Brush, and more

Under the category of face brushes, you'll find quite a lot of different types. For example, if you go to the Flip Shop, you can find all the most popular types under the Makeup Brushes category. Let's have a quick look at the main types of these brush sets.

Powder Brush

These are larger brushes that you can use to set freshly applied makeup as well as reduce the shine of your makeup a bit. You might notice that buff brushes are very effective for this too.

Concealer Brush

You can use concealer brushes to control different colored makeup on your forehead, cheeks, nose, and so on. They are excellent for helping you conceal like a master.

Foundation Brush

Foundation brushes are used to apply both cream and liquid foundation. These brushes usually have synthetic bristles that are either round or completely flat, never at an angle. Additionally, a high-quality makeup sponge can also help you apply foundation and look very natural as a result.

Blush Brush

A blush brush features rounded bristles that are perfect for applying bronzer and blush to your cheeks.

Fan Brush

Out of any brush collection, fan brushes are the easiest to recognize. They have fairly thin bristles that are arranged in a fan shape. They are very effective if you're trying to apply a relatively light layer of highlighter or clean excess makeup from your face with precision.

Lip Brush

Lip brushes are an essential part of any face makeup brush sets and are used to apply makeup on the lips. It's as simple as that. However, you can find different types of lip brushes as well. 

Contour Face Brush

You can use these brushes to shape and sculpt your face by applying various contour makeup products.
