Fan brushes can be used to apply blush, setting powder, or brush off fall outs. It’s a versatile face brush that is easy to use and very handy.
Angled face brush
This makeup brush is used for contouring the face because it fits the hollows of the cheeks, jaw-line, as well as the temple area. This can also be used to apply blush depending on your preference.

EYE BRUSHES
Eyeshadow brush
 |
| Eye shadow 5 set brush |
These kind of makeup brushes come in different sizes. It’s basically used to apply eye shadow all over the lids. The bigger sized ones can be used to contour the nose.
Smudge brush
 |
| Smudge Brush |
The smudge brush can come in a sponge tip form or like the picture above. It’s used to smudge out kohl eye liner or even eye shadow.
Blending brush
Just like the eye shadow brush, the blending brush also comes in different sizes, depending on what purpose you’re going to use it and the size of your lids.
For those that have wide-spaced lids, bigger blending brushes like the ones from ELF or even bigger, from Sigma, are very effective, while the dome-shaped ones like the photo above are best for defining the crease a bit more. Small blending brushes are preferable for mono lids or those that do not have much lid space and for defining the outer v of the eyes to give an illusion of depth.
That’s how important makeup brushes are. If you want to achieve a certain eye makeup look, you will need specific eye makeup brushes with their specific functions. Comment below if you want me to make a separate post on eye makeup brushes.
Liner brush

From the name itself, these makeup brushes are used to apply liquid or gel eyeliner. You can also use them to apply powder as your liner. The angled liner brush is also commonly used for the brows.
MISCELLANEOUS BRUSHES
Spooly
A spooly brush can be used to groom and comb the eyebrows as well as the eyelashes.
Brush & comb
This combo brush must be familiar to you because it’s always part of a basic makeup brush set, whether it’s a complete one or just the really basic ones. This is used to groom the eyebrows. The brush is used to blend out the eyebrow pencil when filling in the brows.
Remember that if you are slowly getting into makeup, makeup brushes are one of the main things you need to invest on. Don’t settle for low quality ones that will only make your life miserable and your face a complete mess. Find the right makeup brushes for you!
