Like choosing the perfect shade of foundation or a bronzer that will make you glow without the goop, choosing the right set of makeup brushes is imperative to creating a finished face. Not all brushes were made equal and knowing what brush is used when and having a good-quality brush can make a world of difference when applying your makeup. Choosing brushes from different brands is definitely kosher, but I tend to buy my brushes from the same brand and many times, in bulk. When I stumbled on Sephora’s collection of makeup brushes that not only come in a set of seven (score!) they’re also treated with a non-toxic, anti-bacterial, and hypoallergenic repellent. A brush that can keep the bacteria off your skin and reduce blemishes? Sign me up!
These synthetic, professional-quality brushes spread makeup evenly throughout the face and like any synthetic brush, will last longer than a natural hair makeup brush. The kit ($60) includes the following:
Foundation brush
Concealer brush
Powder brush
Angled eye shadow brush
Eye blender brush
Lip/eyeliner brush,
Brow brush/lash comb
The brushes even come in a chic silver pouch, perfect for traveling or just keeping them neatly organized. Although the brushes are anti-bacterial, that doesn’t mean you can lapse on cleaning them. The old makeup is still there! Be sure to regularly clean your brushes. With clean, anti-bacterial brushes, your skin is sure to stay extra clean and soft.
