Makeup artists recommend stocking your kit with four brush basics: a large powder brush, a smaller fluffy blush brush, a fingertip-sized eyeshadow brush and a smaller shadow brush for blending. But what about the extra tools that can give your technique a professional flourish? Here are four favorites that may not be necessary, but are certainly nice:
Get Bent Brush ($16) – The innovative design makes application of gel, powder or cake eyeliners extra-easy, due to a slightly angled tip that improves grip, visibility and precision.
Benefit The Talent Brush ($18) – This does-it-all flat synthetic eyeshadow brush can be used wet or dry, to apply eye shadow or eyeliner, to line, smudge, press, blend or contour – you name it, this one does it.
Nars Botan Brush ($75) – Nars’ kabuki-style goat-hair brush comes extra-large, extra-dense, and slightly domed, which makes it ideal for blending and buffing powder foundations and blush into a flawless finish.
Shu Uemura Eyelash Curler ($19-$24) – Consider this baby the Holy Grail of curlers. Just one or two clamps will make you instantly look more awake, without damaging delicate lashes.
