Which foundation brushes are best?
It all depends on what you want to achieve with your base. If you're looking for a blemish-free, seamless finish, densely packed buffing brushes and tapered foundation brushes can help you smooth on your liquid or cream foundations in one even coating.
Alternatively, if you're a fan of a light base that lets minor imperfections shine through, looser brushes like a stippling brush will make sure you don't overdo it. Although, you can still get a natural finish with a normal foundation brush.
FAQs
What type of foundation brush is best for me? It depends on the finish you want. Flat foundation brushes offer a smooth, full-coverage application. Buffing brushes deliver a natural, airbrushed finish, while duo-fibre brushes give you a lightweight, buildable result. Whether you're using liquid, cream, or stick foundations, there's a brush to suit.
Is a brush better than a sponge or fingers? Brushes offer precision and hygiene, absorbing less product than sponges and ensuring a streak-free finish—especially useful for buildable coverage. That said, sponges provide a more dewy result and are great for quick blending. Use a brush for precision, and finish with a makeup sponge if you want to press product into the skin.
How do I get a flawless base using a foundation brush? Start by dotting foundation onto your face, then blend in outward, circular motions using your brush. Buff into the skin rather than painting it on to avoid streaks. For a more seamless look, always apply on well-prepped skin—moisturised and primed—to ensure longevity and smoothness.
