Review:My Favourite Face Brushes #1 (EN)

Hello everyone ♥

Last month I showed you my favourite eye makeup brushes #1 and today I’m going to show you my favourite face makeup brushes #1.

A while ago I lost part of my face brushes and I gave away some other so I was looking for some new face makeup brushes. After I red Sneji’s (snejanaatanasov.blogspot.bg) review about the Lollipop Cosmetics brushes I decided to give them a try so I purchased 2. I was really pleased with their quality so after 2 months I purchased another 3. The brand Lollipop Cosmetics is pretty popular lately so I decided to wrote a review about all of their face makeup brushes that I own since I really like them and I use them every day.

Here’s my honest opinion about them:

 1.Angled buffer foundation brush

This brush is from synthetic hair, really thick and standard size. It’s really comfy to work with and it applies foundation easily even in the hard to reach areas – around the nose, under the eyes, around the ears, hairline. This brush is perfect if you’re looking for a brush that gives you full coverage without cake effect. When I first saw it I thought that it would be too small for me – her head is tiny.  Actually it’s pretty comfy to work and it takes me just 3-4 buffs more compared to my flat buffer one. I highly recommend this brush for women that have problem skin, large pores and imperfections – it gives pretty full coverage and it covers everything.  It’s easy to wash, it dries out quick, it doesn’t fall out any bristles and it’s sooooo soft! I have pretty sensitive skin which get’s irritated super easily so I always go for super soft face makeup brushes. 

2.Flat buffer kabuki foundation brush

This flat buffer is also from synthetic hair, it’s 2x bigger than the angled one, it’s thick, super soft and I don’t have any fall outs. It’s easy to clean but you have to be careful to wash really good in the middle. It dries out a bit slower than the angled one. Using this brush make’s the foundation application super easy – 3-4 buffs and I’m ready. I like to apply my bb/cc cream with it because it gives me such a natural finish with minimal product. It also works great with thicker foundations. 

3.Powder brush

Again, a synthetic hair brush which is pretty big – I personally have combination skin so I like to apply powder all over my face and this brush is comfy for me to work with but If you like to apply powder only on your T-zone then this brush might be too big for you. The bristles are super fine, thick and I achieve full coverage with my powder – this brush takes a lot of product. If you’re looking for a fine and delicate mattifying then this brush isn’t for you. It’s easy t clean but since is so thick it dries out slow – usually I wash it around afternoon so it will dry till the next morning and I can use it. 

4.Angled blush brush

This brush is from natural goat hair, it feels a bit harder than the synthetics but it’s nice and soft as well and it doesn’t irritate my skin. I like to apply my blush or bronzer with it. It’s not super thick and not super loose, for me it’s the perfect thickness and shape for a blush brush. It’s soft, it doesn’t have any fall outs, it’s easy to clean and it dries out a bit slower compared to a synthetic blush brush. I have to put a brush protector after I wash it so it stays in shape.

5.Contour brush

This brush is also from natural goat hair, it’s soft but not too soft. This is the only brush that has 2-3 fallen bristles. I like to apply my contour powder with it – it contours cheeks, nose and chin perfectly. I think it’s pretty similar to the famous Nars Ita brush. Using it I achieve full contouring since it’s thick. I like to apply my bronzing powder with it – just above the contouring – above the cheekbones, on my forehead, my jaw line. It’s easy to clean and I also had to put a protector after washing it. If you aren’t into heavy contouring or bronzing then skip this brush. 

So that was for my first part of favourite face brushes. Stay tuned for #2 soon.

I also want to mention that every type of the mentioned brushes is available in other brand’s assortments – for example as Zoeva, Morphe, Real Techniques, MAC, Sigma, ELF etc.The important thing is the quality of the brush and not the brand at all☺.
