THE BEAUTY OF MAKEUP BRUSHES
Way before I had fondness for makeup, I was a girl perplexed by these so called makeup brushes. I always that all you need are your fingertips, who's with me?! But as you start loving the art of makeup, you'll be able to see the beauty of makeup brushes too. Yeah, there are quite a lot of them! But if you think about it, each and everyone of them exist because they are indeed important. With the use of the right brush, you can make a difference between a natural complexion and a flawless face.
From pressing for a flawless coverage to contouring and blushing, these are some of the essential brushes every girl would need in their makeup bag! I've also included the brushes from my brush set as well, together with its uses. Hope this would help you decide on what brushes you need to invest on!:)
