What is the smudge brush for? The difference between smudge brush and eyeshadow brush

The blending brush is mainly used to blend the eyeshadow. The usage is to apply the eyeshadow first, then use the blending brush to start blending. The principle is to blend the eye sockets first, and then brush lightly on both sides, the eyeshadow after blending will be more Three-dimensional, and it will make the color of the eye shadow more saturated, which is a common technique we use when painting eye makeup.

The smudge brush is mainly used to smudge the eyeshadow. The usage is to apply the eyeshadow first, and then use the smudge brush to start smudging. The principle is to smudge the eye sockets first, and then brush lightly to both sides to smudge the eyeshadow. It will be more three-dimensional, and it will make the color of the eye shadow more saturated, which is a commonly used technique when we paint eye makeup. Before using the smudge brush, it is best to shake off the excess powder to avoid too thick powder.

The smudge brush is used to make the base or smudge the eyeshadow. Generally there are two ways to use it. The first is to paint eyeshadow Previously, I used a blending brush to dip different colors of eye shadow on the eye sockets; the second is to use it to blend after the eye shadow is applied. The effect is to make the effect and color of the eye shadow more natural.

1. Different functions: the main function of the eye shadow brush is to color, process details, smudge, etc., and the smudge brush is its effect with the smudge. The effect is less than the eye shadow brush, and it will be more targeted.

2. The brush head is different: the bristles of the smudge brush are relatively long and fluffy. The brush head is generally arc-shaped, and some of it is tapered. The bristles of the eye shadow brush should be a little shorter and have a larger range, so it is not easy to use a blending brush when blending, it is not easy to control the intensity, and the blending speed is also slower.

If you don’t have a smudge brush, you can use your fingers or an eyeshadow brush instead. After applying the eyeshadow, use your fingers to smudge on the eyelids. If you are not accustomed to using your fingers, you can use the eyeshadow brush as a temporary substitute, but remember to swipe, and don't use too much force, otherwise it will be too thick.

But it’s best to recommend that you prepare a smudge brush, because its effect is quite obvious, but don’t choose too big when choosing, otherwise the smudge range will be too large. Of course, the brush head is too small, the principle is that the bristles should be dense but soft, so that the upper eyelid and lower eyelid can be smudged, and it will be more comfortable to use.
