Real Techniques

Blush Brush

Angled and soft, so the shape of the brush does the placement for you. Laid flat against the cheek it puts colour exactly where the bristles sit and nowhere else.

Worth knowing. For cream or liquid blush use clean fingers or a damp sponge instead. A powder brush drags cream product about.

One brush, around $10. An affordable pick

Real Techniques

Powder Brush

Large and loose, so it deposits a veil rather than a layer. For setting the areas that actually get shiny, which for most people is a band down the centre of the face and nothing else.

Worth knowing. Press and roll rather than sweep. Sweeping powder over wet foundation moves the foundation.
