How to judge the quality of the brush. The easiest way to judge the quality of makeup brushes is to judge by Mao Feng. The longer the hair peak, the better the brush. So what is Mao Feng? Put the makeup brush under the sun to observe, the top part of the brush that is translucent is the hair peak. The tipped part of the hair is the peak of the hair, and the part of the uniform thickness at the bottom is the root of the hair. When we put on makeup, the person who is most directly exposed to cosmetics and face is Mao Feng.
The difference between fiber hair and animal hair. The fiber hair has poor powder holding power and blooming effect, and the hair has only the difference in thickness and length. The material is the same whether it is plant fiber or bionic fiber. Therefore, fiber hair is recommended to choose foundation brush, concealer brush, lip brush, etc. These brushes do not need to touch powder cosmetics. Eye brushes require greater blooming requirements. It is recommended to choose animal hair makeup brushes. Another feature of fiber hair is that it is very comfortable to use, does not pierce the face at all, and is very soft. Therefore, many businesses will make the fiber brushes large and fluffy, and the texture is very good.
The animal hair brush has good elasticity, strong powder grip, good blending ability, and good makeup effect. But it is more or less piercing, and it is not so skin-friendly to use. The stronger the powder holding power, the better the blending power, the brush must be a bit piercing. Several animal hairs commonly found in the market include horse hair, squirrel hair, squirrel hair, and goat hair. Among them, goat hair is the most common cosmetic brush material, which is subdivided into coarse light peaks, medium light peaks, fine light peaks, white peaks, and yellow peaks. According to the previous hair peak principle, the fine light peak wool is the most high-end, compared to other qualities, the hair is finer and softer, and its natural hair scales make it strong in gripping powder. It is the best quality in wool makeup brushes. Also higher. Horse hair is the most powerful of animal hair, but it has the worst skin feel, because the hair is harder and more piercing. Squirrel hair and squirrel hair are soft and belong to high-grade hair. The powder gripping power is weaker than horse hair and wool, but daily makeup is sufficient. In addition, there are high-grade hair such as roe deer hair and fox hair, which can be used to make makeup brushes. However, these products are more expensive and sell more expensively. The makeup effect is not significantly different from the common ones mentioned above.
Nozzle and handle of makeup brush. The nozzle of the makeup brush is the metal part that connects the bristles and the handle, and is generally divided into two types: copper and aluminum. Copper is stronger, heavier, and more expensive. Generally, cheap brushes use aluminum nozzles. These nozzles are light and thin, and flat-mouth brushes may crack. The brush handle is mainly based on personal preference, both plastic, wood and metal. Plastic is stylish and light, and can be used for rich shapes, while wood and metal are more advanced in texture.
Brush care
Daily maintenance of makeup brushes. After each use, the brushes that have been dipped in creams and liquid products need to be cleaned, otherwise the remaining cosmetics will contain moisture or oil, which will easily breed bacteria. Unwashed brushes will contaminate cosmetics when they are used again, and they will also bring bacteria to the face, causing skin allergies, acne, and closed mouth. The same is true for makeup eggs. Frequent cleaning of tools that directly touch the skin is good for the skin.
Brushes that have been dipped in powder cosmetics do not need to be washed every time, because these brushes are usually animal hair, and too much washing will cause damage. Take a clean paper towel and brush it on the paper towel with a makeup brush to wipe off the powdery cosmetics. Use dark and light brushes separately to avoid color crossover.
Brushes that are not used for a long time are recommended to be placed in a cosmetic bag to smooth the bristles to avoid deformation of the bristles and dust. Don’t throw away the net cover that comes with the brush when you buy it. Put it around every time you receive the brush and wrap the bristles to prevent the brush from being squeezed and deformed and fringed.
Precautions for cleaning makeup brushes. The lazy way is to buy a makeup brush and dry sponge. The dry cleaning sponge only needs to rub the brush on it to clean it. Many brands have professional makeup brush cleaners. In fact, if the brush is not very expensive, our usual facial cleanser, shower gel, shampoo can also be washed. When washing the brush, be sure to put the brush down, and try not to immerse the metal part in the cleaning agent. Wash the cosmetics gently with your hands, and then rinse with running water. Finally, wipe or spin dry the bristles, and let the bristles face down to dry. During the whole process, do not allow water to flow back into the brush rod, otherwise the metal nozzle will be easily deformed and cracked. There are many gadgets on Taobao that are highly recommended. The makeup brush auxiliary cleaner can not only wash the brushes, but also wash the beauty eggs, which is cleaner and more convenient than hand washing. The auxiliary rack for drying the brush is very cheap and easy to use, helping the brush stand upright to dry.
