You have probably seen a lot of these types of brushes everywhere lately and wondered exactly what is the deal with this new boy in town, well its nothing short of a miracle brush and as the name claims it really does wow!
There are so many variations available, but this one from Cailyn Cosmetics is everything and more. I am so excited to share this with you all.
So what exactly does it do that is so different from any other makeup brushes around? Well for starters it gives you an airbrush finish when you use it with your foundation and concealer. Blotchiness and dark circles are virtually diminished and pores are almost invisible, and believe me this does not happen with any other foundation brush I have ever tried (which is a lot!). Not even a beauty blender, Kabuki brush or my old faithful Mac brushes can give the even flawless coverage that this brush does.
The bristles themselves are like velvet, they are so soft. It is densely packed with ultra fine fibres which ensure an airbrushed effect with immaculate streak-free touch. I even use it now to blend in my face primer.
It comes in very sleek black packaging and contains the brush and also a cap which is a huge plus as it prevents the brush from being damaged and also causing any makeup to rub off on your makeup bag and stops any dirt or germs getting into the fibres, perfect for on the go.
The brush features a dome, angular shaped surface that has been crafted to blend foundation, powder, creams and primers seamlessly into your skin. The pointed tip is designed to fit perfectly underneath your eyes, and helps contour. The handle itself is very sturdy and the fact that it is angled really makes the difference to applying your makeup all around your face. It also stands upright on its own which is useful.
Because the bristles are so densely packed into the brush it can make cleaning it a little harder than your usual makeup brushes, but if you get a rubber makeup brush cleansing pad it can really help make a difference in getting rid of all the foundation. Cailyn Cosmetics have one themselves which they sell on their website, or you can pick one up from Amazon or ebay.
The brush itself retails for €30 directly from Cailyn Cosmetics or you can get it from Amazon for £29.95. You may think it is a bit pricey for one brush, but it is worth its weight in gold for the flawless application you will achieve with it. Trust me, you will thank me for it!
