Expert tips
- Always clean your brushes before and after every use to ensure the cleanest, smoothest application and to ensure that you’re getting the most accurate color pigment
- Using a wet make-up brush with powder will give a different look than using a dry make-up brush with powder; wet make-up brushes tend to give a deeper, richer color that is more durable, whereas dry make-up brushes give a more lightweight, bright color that has a more sheer and natural appearance and is more easy to apply and blend
- For best results, always use a clean eye shadow brush for every color you apply. Most women have at least two eye shadow brushes: one for lighter shades, and one for darker, more rich shades
- Try blending two shades of your eye shadow on to your brush to lighten or darken the pigment before you apply it
