What should be a tonal cream brush

The basis for make-up is designed to make the skin ideal, even if nature has not made such a "gift".

Benefits of Brushes

For an impeccable tonal coating, you need the same excellent brush. She has many advantages with regard to sponge or her own hands. Let's look at the advantages of the brush:

- The applied cream lies naturally. Only a brush will give a similar effect of naturalness. Sponges or fingers make the stains on the face, while the brush slightly knocks the base with the thinnest layer. And it becomes invisible.

- Apply the cream always neatly. As a rule, it is difficult to make an imperceptible transition to the neck or hair. The base refuses to shade in these places. The brush makes these transitions extremely imperceptible.

- Huge brush plus - economy. Sponges and hands always take away part of the base, while for a foundation cream the brush always completely leaves it on the face.

The right brush is half the success

Choosing a brush to apply a foundation, look at:

- The pile. The best option for today is synthetics. It does not absorb the cream. Special care is not required. Brush with natural hairs takes on a lot of tonal basis and wears out quickly. A brush made of raccoon lint is a rare exception.

- Rigidity. A brush for applying a soft-foundation foundation can not equally apply the substrate, while a hard brush can damage the delicate skin.

- Brush holder. It should tightly clamp the pile, do not have defects that damage the skin of the hands, and be comfortable.

- Size range and appearance. Today, both are represented in great diversity. Manufacturers offer two-sided brushes - one side for the scanner, the second for the tonal base. Therefore, this choice depends only on taste and personal preferences.

- Composition of foundation. She will tell the look of the brush (with a rounded pile, flat and straight or kabuki).

Kind of Kabuki

Has a short little handle and a cone-shaped fluffy pile. Standard three-centimeter pile (sometimes on sale you can find five-centimeter). Vorsinki are both artificial and natural.

The ideal variant of the nap is soft and at the same time resilient. To apply a mineral friable base on the face, this brush is particularly suitable, but also easily copes with a liquid foundation with a lightweight structure. How to apply a foundation with a brush? Work should be rotational steps. The collected cream should completely cover the pile. Shake to remove excess, and apply. If a thick application does not work, experts recommend sprinkling before brushing the brush with thermal water. Feather in a circular motion, especially carefully at the transition to the hair and neck.

With straight hair

Brushes for applying a foundation with straightened pile are distinguished by a flat base and a widely spaced straight pile. Produced as natural nap, and with artificial. The holder is elongated for ease of use. Suitable for tonal bases on a liquid basis or fatty creams.

Apply the basis as follows. The cream, squeezed into the palm of your hand almost at the wrist, is typed with a brush and applied point-wise on the forehead, chin and cheeks. Then, from the center of the face, the cream points creak with soft movements. Movements should be slightly hammering, for an ideal absorption into the skin of the face.

With rounded pile

For a foundation cream, a brush with a rounded pile has a wide and flat base not less than 10 cm long. The tip is arcuate. Vorsinki are acceptable both natural and artificial. A brush is considered universal. In addition to foundation, perfectly apply primer, shadows, blush bronzer, etc. With the hand cream is removed with a brush and patting movements superimposed consistently on the whole face. Drive in until the boundaries are completely dissolved. Finish with massage movements.

Popular manufacturers

The price is affordable and high quality. Brush for the "Avon" foundation has a comfortable handle, synthetic fibers. The pile part is covered with a protective film in which it can be stored.

Nursing requires any brush

For a foundation cream, the brush will last much longer if it is properly taken care of. Remains of the old cream on the villi can spoil the color of the applied base or, even worse, cause an allergic reaction. Therefore, brushes should be regularly, twice a week, washed (experts recommend each time after use). A specialized grooming solution can be purchased from a cosmetic store. Pour a little of this solution into a container and soak the brush. After a while, pour out the dirty solution, fill in clean and rinse the objects. And only then for a foundation cream, the brush is finally rinsed under a stream of running water.

Can be cleaned with milk to remove makeup. It copes with dirt on the hands easily. But this method is uneconomical, the expense of the funds is quite large.

Sometimes it is good to use detergents. For example, a shower gel or baby shampoo. But you can not use a dishwashing liquid, since it can cause allergies. Brush after a greasy foundation is easy to clean with flour. It is necessary to lower it into a container with it, then into a soap solution and rinse well under a stream of water.

Not very good, but the fastest way is wet wipes. Wipe until the napkin is clean.

Dry the washed brushes only with the nap up. Do not dry the brush near any heating appliances. Hot air spoils the nap. After drying, shake gently and the brush is ready for use.
