Light Coverage Foundation Brush

What it is: An elegant, professional-grade brush designed for building sheer to medium coverage foundation.

What it does: This brush effortlessly diffuses liquid and cream foundations for customized coverage and a fresh, perfectly even finish. It also builds thin, even layers with its unique flat head design, while minimizing friction and feeling luxurious to the touch. It's made with silky-smooth, soft and fine synthetic fibers in partnership with Kumano brush artisans, known in Japan as expert craftsmen for more than 80 years.

How to use: Apply the desired amount of foundation to the palm of your hand. Lift half onto the brush, then place it on the top innermost part of the cheekbone, holding the brush horizontally. Sweeping the brush from the center of the face outward, blend foundation into skin, holding the brush at a slight angle. Repeat the same steps on the other side of your face. Along the facial outline, stroke the brush in a light up-and-down motion to blend flawlessly. For less-than-smooth areas, such as the nose and corners of the mouth, apply foundation holding the brush perpendicular to the face so that the brush tip fits against the skin. For greater coverage, lift a small amount of foundation onto the brush and gently layer, using light tapping motions.
