4 Tips From Missha Cosmetics On Using The Right Makeup Tools
The face is said to be the storefront of your body. It’s the first thing that people see and appreciate so everyone wants to have a beautiful face. Cosmetics are designed to enhance a woman’s beauty. Makeup products come in all sizes, shapes, and forms and each is designed for a specific use.
A person’s hands and fingers are good applicators, but makeup would work so much better with the right makeup tools for better consistency. Your fingers are prone to heat, moisture, and other elements, even when you’ve just recently washed your hands. Like an artwork would need varying shapes, types and sizes of paintbrush, you would need specific makeup tools for your face.
Here are the top reasons why using the right makeup tools is important:
1. The right makeup tools can help you apply the cosmetics better
A makeup product may be great and of high-quality, but the wrong makeup brush or tool can diminish its effect when applied, whereas the right makeup tool can significantly improve the makeup effectively. The right makeup tools enable for better precision and application that boost the intended effect of the makeup.
For example, an angled brush works better for applying eyeliners and brow powders than a bigger, rounded brush. Sponges are good for applying cream-type products like BB cream or CC cream. Applying foundation may be different too when one uses a foam applicator such as Missha’s Water In Finger Beauty Makeup Blender Sponge than when just using one’s hands, as the foundation will be spread more evenly.
2. Having your own makeup tool is more hygienic and sanitary since you can monitor its cleaning
Anyone who is serious about doing makeup, whether for personal or professional use, must have their own makeup tools at hand. That’s because sharing makeup tools with other people increases the risk of contamination that can cause acne breakouts and skin irritation. Having your own makeup tools significantly decreases the likelihood of bacterial contamination and keep your cosmetics clean and hygienic. Furthermore, you will also be more motivated to regularly clean your makeup tools because they are yours.
3. Increased ease of access and comfort
The makeup brushes and sponges that come pre-packaged with cosmetic products are often unreliable and break easily. These default tools are also oftentimes difficult to use due to holding it improperly. Standalone makeup tools, in contrast, are ergonomically designed for easier grip and fit. This is a huge advantage over default makeup tools because standalone makeup tools are easier and more comfortable to hold for long periods of time, thus reducing fatigue in the hands and allowing for better application.
4. Avoids product waste
Applying makeup using just your hands or faulty makeup tools will just create unnecessary time spent on makeup application. It also will cost you more in the long run because using faulty makeup tools will cause you to use an excessive amount of makeup that is needed. Having the right makeup tools will allow you to be more exact on the amount of products you need to apply.
For example, you will use up more foundation when you apply them using only your fingers than when using a makeup sponge or foam applicator. That is because a makeup sponge will spread the product more evenly all over your face and provides better coverage with a natural-looking finish.
5. The right kind of effect
Every makeup look has a desired effect like matte, dewy, glowing or natural. When you apply products with your fingers, your application tends of sometimes be uneven or dry, especially with powder products like highlights or contours. Using the right kind of brush will allow you to get the desired effect without sacrificing the overall look. If you want a more detailed application, use smaller pointed brushes especially in areas like the eyes and lips.
Final Thoughts
Quality makeup tools are a good investment for getting the best and the most out of your makeup products. The right makeup tools ensure better and more precise applications and also calls for more hygienic and responsible handling. It also saves you time and money long term because the right makeup tools ensure better application and coverage when you are trying to regain your looks!
