Perfect make-up is created with impeccable brushes. There are a lot of them today. And each has its own purpose. The villi on the hands can be natural, synthetic, artificial. The former are made of squirrel, sable and pony wool. They are preferable for a fan brush and those options by which blush or powder is applied. Tools for lipstick and eyeliner should be moisture resistant and easy to care for. Therefore, they use artificial nap. And for eyebrow makeup, a brush with both artificial and natural fur is suitable. It depends on the consistency of the applied cosmetics. Loose agent is easier and more convenient to apply with a brush with natural bristles. And for liquid options for cosmetics, you need to use artificial.

For staining, the brush is carefully selected. At the same time, many nuances are taken into account:
- An eyebrow brush with artificial bristles and a beveled edge is able to accurately and quickly apply a pigment composition to the eyebrow line. Such bristles are easy to clean, do not absorb excess composition and serve faithfully for a long time.
- To draw thin eyebrows, you need a soft, flat brush with a rounded end. With its help it is easy to work with sensitive skin. Bristles do not extend beyond the line of eyebrows. And it is intended mainly for applying light colors.

Learning to choose a tool
Choosing an eyebrow brush, you need to take it in hand. Focus on your sensations: the handle should not be thick or thin, not cause discomfort to the palm. Wooden (they must be coated with colorless varnish) and plastic "holders" are convenient not only for use, but also for care. From them, the remains of cosmetics are simply washed off quite simply. If there is an eyebrow correction, the brush must be purchased with artificial nap. It will not be affected by the aggressive environment of the dye. You can try a pony brush.
