Hey guys. This is the 3rd post in my top 5 series and this going to be about makeup brushes/applicators. The majority of these are drugstore and there is one high end brush thrown in there too. So i hope you enjoy!
First up is one that i use the most, i use this to apply my foundation and my concealer and it is the Cosmopolitan makeup sponge. I love this because i think it gives such a nice finish a bit like an airbrush finish. It is so easy to use all you have to do is make it damp and then bonce it over your skin and it distributes the product evenly.
This next one is one that i also use everyday and i use this with the Hoola Bronzer that was featured in my high end favorites. This is by Real Techniques and i got it in their Core Collection, it is the Contour brush and it is so soft and it blends out products really well and it is the perfect shape for contouring too.
This one is also by Real Techniques and it is their Powder brush. It is a big fluffy brush that is ridiculously soft and i just use this either with my Urban Decay powder or the Matte Maker powder by Maybelline. It applies the product evenly and it gives a really good finish.
Again from Real Techniques this is their Brow brush i also got this in one of their collections but i cannot remember which one it was oops. But it just a small angled brush that is perfect for filling your brows in with powder and then using a clean brow brush or a clean mascara wand to brush through them.
Lastly is the high end brush and this is from Benefit and it is their Powder Shadow brush. This applies the shadow evenly and because it is quite small you have a lot more control over it. It also blends a bit as well as applying the product. With this brush i have found that some of the shadows that i use that used to have a lot of fall out don't have as much anymore if that makes sense haha.
Anyway that is the 3rd out 5 posts finished and i hope you are enjoying these so far and i hope to see you on the next two! Thanks for reading :)

Great post! I have been wanting to try out a makeup sponge for a while now. I find foundation brushes always leave my face looking streaky!

Thank you and i don't use a brush for my foundation anymore because i have dry skin and it doesn't look that good haha x
DeleteI love real techniques brushes, i think my favourite is the expert face brush, you should give there sponge a try. I might try the cosmo one, i'd love to have something that costs a little less to repurchase.
