The basics: There are 2 brushes you must have.
These are the perfect two brushes for beginners; as you can do so much with them.
An eye shading brush is designed to 'lay it down' on the lid, brow bone, under eyes, and place into your crease.
You simply flip it different angles and press into the specific area you are working on.
A fluffy blending brush blends and softens the shadows, giving you a more polished look.
Then add:
Keep dedicated/labeled brushes for light and dark shadows.
Create 3 Piles
Place pile 1 in a bag and put them away for a couple of months. Do you miss them? If not, give them away.
Keep pile 2 at the ready.
Place pile 3 close by and as you explore eye makeup techniques, you may realize you have that brush the tutorial is speaking about! Move to pile 2.
