Its unique tapered dome head excels at defining cheekbones, highlighting, and blending colors on the eyes, offering a multi-functional solution for on-the-go application.

Troubleshooting
Bristles feel stiff or rough
Ensure the brush is properly cleaned and conditioned. Residue from makeup or improper cleaning can cause stiffness. Re-wash with a gentle cleanser and rinse thoroughly.
Makeup application appears streaky
Check if the brush is too dry or if too much product is being used. Lightly mist the bristles with setting spray or ensure an even amount of product is picked up. Ensure bristles are clean and free of old makeup.
Handle feels loose
Gently check the connection between the handle and the ferrule. If it is significantly loose, avoid further use and contact customer support. Minor looseness might occur with heavy use on hand-spun items.
