Which Tool for Your Base? ♡


I struggle with what tool to use for my foundation/tinted moisturiser/BB (CC) cream and what goes best with what! Well today I am going to break that down for you and tell you which tool and I like with which base and why?!

The Classic Foundation Brush : This is defiantly the brush I use the least as I feel like I am just slapping on paint with a paintbrush! However I have been trying it again recently but with a very light coverage foundation for when my skin is having a good day - if you want to use this brush I would try it this way.

The Flat-Top Foundation Brush : This may possibly be my favourite brush, I love using a stippling motion to press product into the skin and I find this creates a more 'natural' skin-like finish. Usually I use this for anything as it seems to do the job but I personally thinks it works the best for medium/full-coverage foundations.

The Buffing Brush : Most peoples favourite, an all rounder to be honest, but I like this for thicker tinted moisturisers and BB (CC) creams as I find the shape of the brush is perfect. If you weren't going to buy all these tools I would defiantly recommend this the most to use for all your base products!

The Sponge : The only tool that isn't a brush, these little guys came into fashion a year or so ago when the famous Beauty Blender was launched with loads of brands creating cheaper versions. I find if you have a lot more time on your hands this is perfect as it creates that flawless, catwalk-look finish. I use this for tinted moisturisers when I'm on holiday as it's small and I tend to wear less make-up on holiday in a hot country.

I hope this was helpful, and now your sorted with what goes with what... maybe?
