Q: Do you dab the foundation on your face then use the brush to spread it or do you put foundation on some type of palette then load the brush and apply the foundation to your face.
submitted by SBB - 3 years ago
A: Hi SBB - Thank you for interest in this Foundation Brush. You can either dab the foundation on your face and use the brush to spread or you can load the foundation onto the brush and apply to your face. There's no prescribed method for applying. I hope this helps. - Emma
submitted byEmma - 3 years ago
Target staff support
A: I put the foundation on the back of my hand, from there I dab it on the brush to ensure even coverage on my face. Sometimes when you put the product directly on your face it can cause it to cake up or overall use too much.

submitted by Emily - 8 months ago

Q: how do I get the plastic top off the makeup brush . it is a flat-top brush
submitted by Pat Marzano - 7 years ago
A: Hi Pat Marzano - This lovely makeup brush is sure to leave your foundation completely blended. The cap comes apart in two pieces and the flat part should pop off. Have a great day! - Melissa

Its soft yet dense bristles ensure a flawless finish without soaking up excess product. Many guests appreciate the included protective cap for travel and storage. However, some concerns have been raised about the durability of the bristles and the handle's gold finish. Overall, it stands out as a reliable and affordable option for makeup application.

Makes foundation look super smooth!!
Used for a couple of years and it makes my foundation go on suuuuuper smoothly! It’s a real game changer! The one thing I don’t love is that the bristles are so compact that it’s nearly impossible to get clean. You can scrub and rinse a million times and it won’t get totally clean, but it’s usually the base of the bristles that don’t come into contact with your skin.

I like this foundation brush. It is soft and it comes with a case so leftover foundation does not get on everything in your makeup case. This is my 2nd one. I only bought a new one because the case broke. I have had it for more than a year.

great basic tool
got tired of having to always buy a makeup sponge that I am sure was covered in mold and decided to switch over to brush. This is great option for overall coverage and very beginner friendly!

Flakes off in makeup bag
Brush is excellent but it peels and gets glitter sparkles all in your makeup bag which ultimately ends up on your face. Please fix this!

Price gouging
Why has this gone up in price $2.00 in a year? That’s a crazy percentage hike. Quit price gouging.

Brush
I don't really wear makeup and I never use the right brushes . I wanted to try it out and actually buy the correct brush. My mom saw it and took it and she loves it . She said she likes how the liquid foundation doesn't go down to the brush . It stays on top . And I also love the brush ( I bought a second one ) and it's so soft against the skin and it spreads the foundation so good . I do recommend it it's very good .

AMAZING! BEST FOUNDATION BRUSH!!!
There is absolutely nothing to not love about this brush!! It’s by far the absolute best foundation brush I’ve ever used. It’s a game changer for how flawless your foundation or CC cream goes on. The product does not get completely soaked up in the brush like some others I’ve tried. The bristles are super soft but packed in and sturdy. I hope they never stop making this brush!!

I love this brush so much I bought 2 one for travel, and of you get them individually they have an awesome plastic cover.
