A Guide to Basic Makeup Brushes.

Hello Beauties,

How y’all been? It’s indeed a September to remember , this rain has refused to let up and you know how I feel about this time of the year : ) ,anyways that’s mother nature at work , we can only play along.

Alright people, if you have been struggling with your face, don’t know the right powder combination for your skin or you have not the faintest idea about how to go about your issues as it concerns beauty generally, well then you are in luck, we will be taking them in stages starting with your makeup brush.

Have you ever considered going out to buy a brush or brush set?? Tell me about it, I know exactly how daunting that process can be especially when you don’t even know what they are used for. For this purpose, we will try as much as possible to demystify those little cute things.

For your personal makeup brush collection, trust me you do not need all the 32 piece brush set, just a few essentials and you will do just fine. I would recommend the following brushes, they are the essentials and help to apply that makeup in but a few minutes and yes the look will be flawless too.

Powder Brush – This Brush is a must have for giving a flawless finish; it is used to evenly distribute powder on the face.
