I mentioned this brush
briefly in my last post and will talk more on it now. I will start by saying, I
looooooove this brush. It is the best I have used so far. A brief description
of this tool is that it’s a synthetic
brush used for applying and blending cream or liquid foundation with an extended
aluminum handle which is light and easy to use. It’s created by makeup artist
and You Tuber Sam Chapman; she has other brushes as well that has gotten some
good reviews and I will say has quite a following in Nigeria. I believe she
resides in the UK, not sure where but getting her brushes here in Nigeria isn't
hard.
The brush which is
soft to the touch is firm and dense which makes for easy application. When I
use it my clients and I love the way it feels on our faces, it’s like getting a
free massage, feels quite cuddly really. It gives a smooth flawless finish when
applying foundation; you can apply lightly and build up if you want. The shape
and size of the brush makes it easy to reach difficult areas like the sides of
the nose, around your eyes and behind the ears. Another wonderful thing about
this brush is I can apply foundation faster than I use to, in the business of a
makeup artist speed is most times of the essence because we work with a time
frame.
The best way to use
this brush is to buff in the foundation and blend in circular motions, you can
check out how to use it on Sam Chapman’s YouTube channel, pixiwoo. To keep the
brush clean you can dab it in a little olive oil and wipe clean on wipes for a
quick clean and for a major wash dab in a little olive oil and then baby
shampoo, place under the tap and rinse out, squeeze a bit to make sure nothing
remains. Please avoid using well water to wash brushes because it will end up
hardening the brush with time.
I bought mine at
Stella’s Addiction for N3000 (Naira), you might say that is expensive but with
what this brush can do, it is very affordable. I will leave links below on
where you can get this wonder brush.
Have a lovely day
y’all, until my next post.
