Best Makeup Up Brushes

Posts Tagged ‘Foundation’

I’m not sure as to what you would call them but i’m looking for a foundation brush where you can put your foundation or other make up in the handle.
I’ve seen this mineral make up i would like to try and you can buy it with the brush and/or you can buy refills (which is cheaper) so i was looking to buy a brush separate hoping to save money.

I want to start getting into make up and experimenting with it but I have no idea what I’m doing aha
I really only use mascara and lip gloss so I’m a beginner and I have some questions (You don’t have to answer them all, ANYTHING helps! ):

1. I have oily skin and was wondering what the best foundation would be for me to use.
2. I have some discolouration on my cheeks from picking at pimples that I want to be covered up so I think I’m supposed to use concealer, right?
3. Is there an inexpensive brush kit I can purchase to get me started?
4. What kind of powder is best for me?

Products I’ve thought about purchasing are E.l.f. brushes, Maybelline dream smooth mousse foundation and Clinique concealer…are these any good?
Thanks In Advance

Well, i have some acne scars and my face gets very freckly in the summer, so i was wondering what are the best products for FULL coverage of the face…drug store brands like maybelline, loreal, etc. I am a tannish/olive color (skin tone). I want the dewy, pretty coverage that people have; i hate the cakeyness of my make up now. Maybe if i knew a better moisturizer, it would help. i currently use the 24 hour maybelline conealer,the matte powder, and the loreal true match foundation, but it makes my face cakey, and i dont like that. What are the best FULL coverage products out there? Do i need brushes (conealer brushes, kabuki brushes, etc.) for the application to be better? What are the best brands at a low price? Help please!
P.S. i have combination, acne prone skin, although it is clear now…it usually is clearer in the summer, maybe if you could tell me something i could use year round would be better. Thank you guys so much.

Hia, is it better to apply your foundation with a

Brush?-Some people say this gives u better coverage but it sometimes leaves like brush sweeps behind when i use 1

Your fingers?-The warmth of your hands makes it blend better?

Or a normal triangle make-up sponge?

Btw-I use Max Factor Second Skin Foundation

I wonder why they make any creamy foundation WHILE you have to wet the sponge/brush for best application & still will apply powder to set the make-up WHEN you can just use the liquid foundation then apply powder.

Thank you.

Right now I am using bare escentials which works great and I love it! I have the bronzer too. I’m running out of foundation and thinking of buying more soon but I was at Kohl’s recently and they have an awesome makeup selection there. You can’t buy there makeup anywhere else unless you order it but then you have to pay for shipping and handling. I was thinking of trying there foundation which is like mine (crushed up mineral foundation) and called American Express. Its the same price that I pay for my foundation $25 except there’s comes with a little brush for the foundation which I kinda need because I think it costs like $30 just to buy a good makeup brush! I need a good mineral foundation because I have eczema on my face and a lot of cheaper foundations will make my skin flare up and get rashy looking. Any thing with fragrance in it is an automatic no because that will irritate my skin and make it flare. So my question is which mineral foundation do you think looks the best?

I’m on the search for the right foundation for me. I’m currently using loose mineral powder. But when autumn and winter come around, I’d like to switch to liquid foundation so that my face doesn’t become dry.

What liquid foundation is the best? I’m worried about using drugstore brands, I’m afraid they’ll break out my face….? But how are drugstore brands like Covergirl, Revlon, Almay, Physician’s Formula, etc???

I was really close to purchasing clinique foundation after getting a makeover there….but i never purchased it. Is clinique foundation good? Does it break out the skin? How about Sephora foundation? I am on a budget…..so i don’t want to waste money on expensive brands if they break out my face….

Also, should i use a sponge, a brush, or my fingers to apply foundation? How do i choose the right shade for me if i buy it from like walmart or sally’s?? I suck at choosing the right shade for myself…

Are Eco Tools any good?

What MAC foundation brush is the best to use? I know theres a 190 brush its like a flat brush which i have but when i apply my foundation it leaves like brush lines (sweeps) on my face which makes my make up look really uneven. But i seen one and it looks a bit like a kabuki brush. But i was wondering would this be better to use? Please answer (:

I need a good foundation and foundation brush even if its expensive. Drug store foundation is crap in my eyes and good make up is worth it. I have oily skin that can sometimes be dry and i do have acne.

I have dry skin, on my cheeks and forehead. I use a moisturiser before applying any make up but it doesn’t help.

I use a foundation brush too but that just seems to show my dry skin as flaky

What can I do?
