My Daily Makeup Brush

I wear makeup pretty much everyday, Sunday is possibly the only day I will stay makeup free if I stay at home. I respect people's opinions on natural beauty but it's just not for me. Makeup to me is a boost of my confidence, not because I don't have faith in my look, just everybody wants to look better. I am not showing a better look to anyone, I wear makeup for me and I feel good with it on. 

That's a bit of off the topic, now I will show you what brush I use everyday for my daily makeup. I work in the office during the weekdays so dramatic makeup is not suitable. For a simple yet fresh look, I use below (from left to right) : Sigma Large Powder Brush F30. Sigma Tapered Blending Brush E40, sigma Eye Shading Brush E55, Sigma Large angled contour brush F40, ELF Powder Brush. 

All these Sigma Brush are in the Mrs Bunny Set, (Bunny, right, I cannot say no to that). It also comes with some other brushes which I don't use on a daily bases and a travel case which can protect your brushes during travel) 

I don't own any MAC Brush or any other high end brand brushes so cannot tell you the comparison but Sigma brushes are just good. The brush is super soft and I wash my brush every week, they are holding up really well, there is no shape change. 

I have quite a lot of ELF Brushes, they are on the excellent price for what they are, all my ELF brushes are still holding up as well after multiple washes. If you are not sure whether you will invest in a set of pricier brushes, ELF is a good start. All their brushes are under AUD 5, and they do have Australian website for you to order from and from time to time they offer free shipping which is just simply better. 

For the large powder brush, there is no need to explain what I use it for - apply setting powder/powder foundation. The brush is very dense so it only takes me few seconds to get powder all over my face. To apply powder evenly, I dab gently in stead of blend which may drag your foundation around your face. 

Eyeshadow brush and blending brush are used as a set together, I apply the colour by the shadow brush to the place I want them to be on my eyelid and after that all is up for blending. Spend more time on the blending than the actual stacking on colour, you can tell how soft and natural your eyedshadows show on your eyes. It also save your eyeshadow. 

The angle brush is just perfect for applying blushes, the size just fits my cheek. For blush, less is more, you want a little of colour to bring some life to your face not a sunburned looking face. So gently dab the blush on your cheek and slight drag upwards toward your ear will create the look of a natural flush. 

I use the ELF brush as a foundation brush, it's surprising dense and it easily to dab the foundation into my skin. I don't like to use the traditional foundation brush for foundation as I noticed the marks on the face and it takes a lot longer time to achieve a perfect foundation look. But when I just dab the foundation on my clean face, the result is so natural and it lasts longer throughout the day as well. 

These are just the examples on how I use the brushes for my daily makeup, I have other brushes as alternative when these are getting cleaned.
