A Must Have – The Perfect Powder Brush

Add a Large Powder Makeup Brush to Your Collection

If there’s one tool that must be in every makeup bag, it’s a great powder makeup brush. While these primarily used to be for blush, these days they are used for bronzer and highlighter as well. Here’s what you need to know to get the perfect powder brush for your kit.

What Is the Pro Large Powder Makeup Brush?

The pro Large Powder Brush is a large, fluffy brush with airy bristles that deposit and blend makeup product in a very light and even surface. The brush is made with synthetic bristles, a solid wooden handle, and a double-crimped copper ferrule for durability. This brush is ideal for blush, applying bronzer to your cheeks or décolletage, and highlighting your collar bones. The large shape means that you can easily blend product into big areas, and the fluffy bristles diffuse highly pigmented products so you never end up with a harsh line.

How to Use It 

Using this brush is easy. Simply swirl or tap it into your powder, tap off the excess, and then tap or stipple it into your skin where you want the product. Next, use a small circular motion to buff the makeup product into your skin, moving towards the outside of your face so that excess product gets whisked off. That’s it!

How to Care for It

These brushes can last for years thanks to the solid construction, but they’ll last even longer if care is taken to ensure they stay clean. It’s a good idea to dust off any excess product every time you use this brush, and to do a deep clean about once a week. A deep clean isn’t as involved as it sounds. Here’s what you need to do:

1. Wet the brush bristles with lukewarm water.
2. Put a drop of mild soap or brush cleaner in your palm, and massage the bristles gently into it.
3. Rinse the bristles and squeeze out the excess water.
4. Reshape the brush head.
5. Lay the brush on the counter so that the bristles are hanging off the end of the counter. This allows the brush to dry in the correct shape, and discourages mildew from forming.

Buyer’s Guide to Powder Brushes – and Why You’ll Love the Pro Brush

The most important part of a powder brush is the bristles. You want it to be fluffy, large, and very soft. This combination creates a very even and natural application of color on the face, so that it doesn’t even look like you’re wearing makeup. The pro Large Powder Makeup Brush offers a flawless finish because it possesses these characteristics, but also because of the man-made fibers used in the bristles. Without the cuticle of natural fibers, the bristles don’t soak up makeup. That means you can count on an even application, and you can use less makeup. Don’t believe us? Try it risk free for 30 days.
