Question 1

Which brushes do I need to start?

Accepted Answer

Five is plenty to begin: a foundation brush, a powder or blush brush, an eyeshadow brush, a blending brush and a smaller detail or brow brush. A ready-made 5-piece set covers all of these in one go.

Question 2

How often should I clean my makeup brushes?

Accepted Answer

Wash face brushes every one to two weeks, and eye brushes a little more often, using a mild soap and lukewarm water. Reshape the bristles and let them air-dry flat to keep them soft and hygienic.

Question 3

What is a contour brush used for?

Accepted Answer

A contour brush places and blends bronzer or contour into the hollows of your cheeks, jawline and hairline to add subtle definition. An angled or dual-ended brush makes it easy to apply precisely and buff out harsh lines.
