5 Fabulous Foundation Brushes

Makeup artists know the right makeup brush makes all the difference to a flawless makeup application. jane iredale has a great range of exclusively designed foundation brushes to suit every foundation in the range.

We explain each brush, down to its bristles! And which density, shape and size works best for each base. Foundations fall into two main categories; wet or dry.  Liquids and creams (wet) are best applied with a synthetic brush as these bristles don’t soak up as much product while powder (dry) foundations are best applied with a natural hair brush as these bristles grab onto the powder and prevent you from depositing too much product onto your skin.  With the correct tool, you’ll have more control, use less product and achieve perfect coverage every time.
