“It’s not everyday you find a company that offers reasonably priced brushes that are high quality.”
Many blushes come with a brush. Most often, you can toss these, as the bristles are too narrow, and are difficult to hold for the best application.
The key to a great blush brush is one that the bristles are as wide as the apples of your cheeks, and have a soft angle that fits the hollow of your cheeks. A soft, yet firm bristle head will allow you to place as much or as little blush as desired, while being able to evenly blend out for a flawless finish. Beauty Junkees Angled Kabuki Makeup Brush was designed with a soft angle that fits the natural contour of the cheek.
Dense Synthetic Bristles
Beauty Junkees Kabuki Makeup Brush Set is made from synthetic Taklon, which is a man made material. Synthetic bristles very smooth, so they don’t pick up too much product, which allows for soft layering of powder or for use with cream blushes. They are easier to clean, as the bristles do not absorb pigments. They also last longer as they are less prone to damage from makeup and cleaners.
How to Properly Apply Blush
There are 2 ways you can apply blush, depending on your desired look.
1. For a more contoured look, you want to focus on the hollows of your cheeks, just under your cheekbones. Suck in your cheeks, and apply in a smooth line from the apple in your cheek up toward your hairline. Then blend in a back and forth motion until there are no harsh lines. This will enhance the appearance of high cheekbones, which is something most of us desire! Consider using a color that is a similar to your skin tone.
2. For an everyday look, you can add some color onto the apples of your cheekbones. Put on a big smile, and gently apply your blush color of choice onto the apples, then blend in a circular motion until you achieve the desired finish.

Outstanding brushes!-BETTER THAN SIGMA I purchased the five set kabuki brush which I’m realizing now was a little overkill (how many kabuki brushes can you have?) but I was highly intrigued by the set and the companies dedication.First impression. The packaging is great. The brushes come individually packaged and the brush holder all come in a box filled with pink confetti and a very cute sticker (that I won’t spoil for you:), this would make a perfect gift for any makeup lover.When I opened the bags for each brush…
Gorgeous These brushes are fabulous. First off, let me just say that they did smell, but it seemed to just be the packaging. I ordered the small set from the same company and they did not smell AT ALL because they came in different packaging.The length of the bristles were a bit shorter than I had hoped, but that’s not a deal breaker. Just makes them a little harder to clean, and application might take a bit longer. Otherwise, these brushes feel very sturdy. They are soft and lush, the density of…
The best brush I own. Period. I use many types of brushes at different price points – from good ol’ drugstore Revlon (still going strong after many, many years) to spendy Jane Iredale — as well as faves priced in the middle (RealTechniques and Japonesque). Almost every brush I have offers value in its own way, as long as I respect just how that particular tool works best.BUT- I’m pickiest about my foundation brush, as this is what “sets the canvas” for everything else. My current foundation brush,…
