Contour is all about defining the structure, symmetry, and dimension of your face. And to do the job, you need an angular contour brush that can perfectly define the shape and structure of your face. The brush is designed with an angular cut to make the application easier.

Blush Brush

A blush brush is a more rounded, fluffier, and oval-shaped brush used to apply blush to the face. The bristles are so soft, specially designed to add color and brightness, making it look like a natural flushed face. 

Highlighter Brush

A smaller fluffy brush or a fan brush is used to highlight the face. The choice among the both depends on personal preference. All you need is the dust of highlight on the face to complete the shimmery glow, as these brushes do that job perfectly.

Eye shadow Brush

For the smooth application of the eye shadow on the lids, you need an eye shadow brush. It is a flat brush in a smaller size, which helps pick the color easily from the palate and evenly apply it on the lid. It also helps in smudging the shades for a smoky look.

Blending Brush

Your eye makeup is incomplete without this brush. You need to blend your shades to complete your look. You cannot step out of your house without that perfect blending of your shadows. To achieve this purpose, you need a blending brush, which is a smaller in size, rounded fluffy brush. You can also apply and blend the transition shade into the crease.

Brow Brush with Spoolie

It is a double-ended brush, with a brow brush at one end and a spoolie at the other. The brow brush is a small flat brush with stiff bristles. It allows you to apply the powders, pomades, and gels and enhance the brow shape with ease. The stiff bristles also help in filling the empty spaces in the brows. The spoolie tends to blend and soften the edges. You are done with the perfectly defined brows.
