My favorite make-up brushes

Many people find make up brushes daunting. 
I know I did at first. 
 I had no idea what brushes did what,
and why I needed to use a different one for applying my eye shadow
AND
 blending my shadow.
Here are the make-up brushes I use daily, and their purpose.



The Flat Kabuki brush, the Stippling brush, Flat Powder brush
please excuse my dirty brush
This brush has many names, and a couple uses.
Personally, I use it to buff out my foundation.  It makes it blend in so much easier than using my fingers, or a sponge, and i really don't like the feel of sponges on my face.
I got mine here. 
The Kabuki, The powder brush
dirty brush again

I use this for applying powder to my face after my foundation.  It, too blends nicely, and i like that it has a lot of bristles, so you can cover a larger area.

The angled eyebrow brush   
 
I use this to apply color to my eyebrows.  Mine need to be filled in because i have random bald spots from over-plucking when i first started.
I got mine here.

The spooley brush.

I use mine to brush my brows into place before and after I fill them in.
I also use it to soften my brow color, because sometimes i fill them in too dark.
I got mine here.


The small angled eyeliner brush

I use this to apply my eyeliner on my bottom lid.
I got mine here.


The small smudge brush
I use this for eye shadow.  I apply eye shadow over top of my eyeliner to help it stay in place.
I got mine here.

I use these, plus a few more depending on my make-up routine for the day.  Having and using the correct make-up brushes make the application, and appearance of your make-up so much better.
