Product Information

Full details

The Hourglass Precision Smudge Brush No 13 is designed for makeup enthusiasts and professionals who require surgical-like control for detailed eye makeup application. Its primary benefit is the ability to achieve a seamless, soft-focus finish along lash lines and creases with minimal effort. While the high-quality weighted handle provides exceptional balance, users should note that its specialized small size makes it less suitable for larger-area blending tasks.

FAQs

Can this brush be used with liquid eyeliner?

Yes, it is designed to work with liquid, cream, and powder products, making it excellent for smudging liquid liner for a softer look.

Is this brush made with animal hair?

No, the brush features high-grade, cruelty-free synthetic bristles.

How often should I clean the brush?

For optimal hygiene and performance, clean the brush after every few uses, or immediately if used with cream or liquid products.

Why is the handle weighted?

The weighted metal handle is designed to provide better balance and control, allowing for more precise application compared to lightweight plastic handles.

Can I use this for concealing?

While intended for eye makeup, the precision tip is effective for spot-concealing small blemishes or imperfections.

Troubleshooting

Bristles losing their shape

Avoid storing the brush standing up when wet; always dry the brush flat to prevent water from entering the handle and deforming the bristles.

Product buildup in fibers

Use a dedicated brush cleanser or mild soap, massaging the bristles gently in the palm of your hand to break down stubborn cream or liquid residues.

Pros and Cons

  • Soft bristles are gentle on sensitive eye skin
  • High-quality weighted handle for stability
  • Cruelty-free synthetic material
  • Easy to clean and maintain

Cons

  • Not intended for large area blending

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because the brush arrives ready to use, no assembly is required. It is compatible with all cosmetic formulas, including liquid liners, cream shadows, and loose or pressed powders. To maintain the integrity of the synthetic bristles: 1. Clean the brush head gently using lukewarm water and a mild, fragrance-free soap. 2. Rinse thoroughly until the water runs clear, ensuring no product residue remains at the base of the ferrule. 3. Reshape the bristles while damp. 4. Always lay the brush flat on a clean surface to air dry to prevent moisture from loosening the adhesive within the handle.
