Difference between concealer brush and lip brush
1. The length of the bristles
Concealer brush and lip brush can be distinguished according to the length of brush hairs. The length of the concealer brush hair is shorter and harder than that of the lip brush, so that the concealer can be accurately concealed without appearing heavy.
2. Material of bristles
The bristles of the concealer brush and lip brush are mainly made of artificial fiber hairs and animal hairs. The softer and more dispersed the bristles, the weaker the grip, making it suitable for blending or requiring a small amount of multiple coloring. The denser and harder the bristles, the stronger the powder grip, making it suitable for use in areas that require reinforcement or color enhancement.
Lip brushes made of synthetic fiber hair are quite common. Artificial fiber hair is good for sensitive muscles, without the odor of animal hair, and is relatively hard. The biggest advantage is that it is not afraid of water and oil, and it is also more resistant to washing. The disadvantage is that the smudging force is average, it is relatively hard, and there may be a risk of facial irritation. Lip brushes are also made of animal hair. The lip brush made of yellow wolf hair and mink hair has good elasticity and is as suitable for grasping cream as fiber hair. It is suitable for color selection. Many eye shadow brushes and eyebrow brushes are made of this material.
The concealer brush is usually made of animal hair. The root of concealer brush made of chinchilla hair is fine and soft, and will have a lustrous feeling after applying makeup. But the price is relatively expensive. The concealer bristles made of squirrel hair are smooth and soft, suitable for dry skin. The hair is dense on the head but loose on the body, making it more suitable for small-scale grooming.
3. Brush head shape
The concealer brush is generally a small tongue shaped brush, because it has strong coloring ability. Small round head brushes can also be used. The small round head brush has weak powder grasping power, which is suitable for the transition of concealer. Large area of halo dyeing will make the concealer paste lumpy. And lip brushes mostly use detail brushes, with smaller brush heads.
