FAQs

What type of makeup is this brush best for?

This brush is specifically designed for powder makeup products such as setting powders, bronzers, contour powders, and highlighters. Its shape also makes it excellent for precise application of these powders.

How does the arched shape benefit application?

The arched shape is designed to conform to the contours of the face, allowing for more precise application in areas like the cheekbones for contouring, or under the eyes for setting concealer. It also aids in seamless blending.

Can this brush be used for liquid or cream products?

While primarily designed for powders, it can be used to lightly buff or blend cream or liquid products, or to set them with a dusting of powder. However, its best performance is with powders.

How often should I clean this brush?

For optimal performance and hygiene, it is recommended to clean the brush at least once a week, especially if used daily.

What makes the Bold Metals collection different?

The Bold Metals collection features weighted, metallic handles for superior balance and control, along with high-quality synthetic bristles designed for professional-level application.

Are the bristles made of natural hair?

No, the bristles are made of high-quality synthetic fibers, designed to mimic the performance of natural hair while being durable and easy to clean.

Troubleshooting

Bristles are splaying or losing shape

Ensure proper cleaning and drying techniques. Avoid leaving the brush wet for extended periods. Reshape bristles gently after washing and allow to air dry completely.

Powder product is not picking up effectively

Ensure the brush bristles are clean and dry. If the brush has been used with cream products or is dirty, it may not pick up powder well. Clean the brush thoroughly.

Uneven application or streaking

Make sure the powder product is evenly distributed on the brush before application. Apply in light layers and blend gradually. Ensure the brush is clean.

Care: To maintain performance and hygiene:

  1. Regular Cleaning: Wash the brush weekly using a gentle shampoo or specialized brush cleanser and lukewarm water.
