The more of a makeup enthusiast you get, you would realise
the need of many different makeup tools to aid you! Throughout the years I had been
using a few tools to make my makeup application look better and also feel
comfortable. These tools are very easy to find. They ar not some expensive
gadgets. So i hope this helps someone who is already having issues applying
certain parts of their makeup.
Tools may also differ from person to person and what skills
they are best or worse at.
Powder puffs. Some products already come with puffs but i
use disposable ones for sanitary purposes. Powder puffs are great in comparison
with powder brushes are because powder puffs deposit the product and actually
mattifys the makeup. At the same time it also aids to set the makeup rather
than moving or removing makeup. In contrast, i have noticed that powder brushes
are usually fluffy thus the powder doesn’t get deposited and using a brush
would actually remove the makeup that you’ve spent time putting on. If you have
oily skin, powder puffs are great tools for you J
Eyelash curler. Obviously you don’t know makeup if you don’t
own, seen or know what this is. Eyelash curlers are meant to curl lashes before
applying mascara. But I have found two new uses for it. One is to curl the
lashes after applying mascara. This way the lashes have some substance
(mascara) to hold the curl. This however is not too good for your lashes. But once
in a while it’s fine. Another use is to use it to curl the fake lashes and
natural lashes together. What this does is blend your fake lashes and natural
ones together. Click here to know how to apply false lashes.
Q- tips are great
inexpensive tools for your makeup! The 1st thing that’s great about
it is that they are disposable. And it’s the best tool to carry in your
handbags to fix any makeup mistakes. For example any eyeliner smudges can be
fixed easily or even using it to press on your under eye concealer to remove
any excess oil.
Spray bottle with water. Spray bottles in particular are
great tools. Small ones are easy to fill up with instant brush cleaners if you
are a makeup artist. Personally, i fill it with plain water. I use this for
several purposes like moisten the face if it dries up right before foundation
application etc.
Makeup brushes. These are must haves if you use makeup
constantly. Invest in a few brushes at least. I will definitely write a post about
the must have brushes later on. But as a summary a foundation brush, eye shadow
brush, lending brush and a blush brush are a few that’s essential.
Tweezers. Tweezers are tools great not only for makeup but
also nail art to pick up tiny rhinestones. But in consideration of makeup, you
could use it to apply your false lashes, or even tweeze your brows. Its also a
great tool in your handbag to pluck any eyebrow hairs that you see growing (
trust me that happens a lot).
Hair clips. This is a tool that has helped me a lot as they
keep the hair away from the face while applying makeup. The long ones (as in
picture) helps a lot than tiny ones.
Hope this helps you out a lot . Happy reading! J
