Flat Complexion Brush

To apply complexion products correctly, it's important to choose the right method and the right brush for each product to achieve an even, natural result. Here are a few tips according to the type of product and brush: -Liquid foundation: Use a flat or kabuki brush with dense bristles for a light finish. Place a small amount of product on the back of your hand, then apply in circular movements or from the inside to the outside of the face. -Compact foundation: Use an integrated sponge applicator for more intense coverage. Take the product directly from the compact and apply in dabs, smoothing over the skin. -Powder foundation : Use a wide powder brush/medium powder brush or a kabuki brush for diffused application and a natural finish. Pick up a small amount of powder, tap off excess, then apply in circular motions for even distribution. -Concealer: Use a short-haired precision brush or a diffuser brush to blend the product into the skin. Apply concealer in small dabs to targeted areas, then blend gently to avoid demarcation. -Blush: Use a powder brush or beveled brush to sculpt cheekbones. -Bronzer: Use a wide, fluffy brush for a diffused, healthy-glow effect. -Highlighter: Opt for a fan brush for a subtle, luminous effect.
