Essential Brushes for Your Collection

Foundation Brush

The key to seamless foundation application is choosing the best type of brush for your formula. Cream foundations call for a dense complexion brush, which will buff the product into the skin. Meanwhile, a fluffy brush can blend powder foundations for soft, even coverage.

Lucky for you, our Dual-Ended Complexion Brush № 2 does both. On one end of this two-in-one makeup brush set is a dense round brush for skin-like cream foundation application, while the other end has a fluffy tulip-shaped brush to diffuse both loose and pressed powders into the skin.

Blush Brush

Just like with a foundation brush, you need to match your blush brush to the type of formula you are using. That’s why we developed the Dual-Ended Blush Brush— made for both creams and powders. Use the fluffy end to evenly diffuse powder blush into the skin and the dense end to blend cream blush for dewy, glowy cheeks.

Contour Brush

Contouring can feel intimidating, but with the right tools, anyone can achieve a snatched, sculpted look. 

Patrick’s Major Sculpt Dual-Ended Sculpting Brush features a dense angled brush that’s designed to melt cream contour into the skin to define and chisel, and a fluffy brush to blend. For an extra sunkissed glow, use the fluffy end to seamlessly diffuse powder bronzer into the skin. 

Meanwhile, the Major Sculpt Dual-Ended Precision Brush was made for contouring the nose – a notoriously difficult task. The precise angled brush gives you total control over contouring this area, leaving you with perfect definition, while the fluffy end helps blend any harsh lines. 

Eyeshadow Brushes

Gorgeous eye looks start with a brush that can flawlessly diffuse and blend eyeshadows into the lid. Patrick Ta’s fluffy Eye Shadow Brush is carefully designed to work shadows into the lids, giving you endless possibilities for versatile eye makeup looks.

Eyebrow Brush

Eyebrow brushes take on a few different forms, and the one that is right for you will depend on the brow makeup you use in your routine. Made for versatility, the Major Brow Dual-Ended Brow Brush has everything you need for perfectly shaped brows. The soft spoolie can be used to groom the brows and set with a wax, while you can use the angled brush with a powder or pomade to create precise and natural-looking strokes.

Body Brush 

Body brushes can help beautifully blend body makeup products like shimmer oils and balms into the skin. They are bigger than your typical face brushes, which means you can quickly and easily work product into larger areas of skin. 

The dense yet super soft Patrick Ta Body Brush can be used to easily blend body makeup products onto the legs, chest, arms, or wherever you need a little extra glow.

Lip Brush

A lip brush is your secret weapon for achieving a plump and precisely shaped pout. The Patrick Ta Lip Brush has a tapered point that makes it easy to apply color and liner to perfectly shape the lips.  

Brush Selection Guide

Choosing the brushes that are best for you will depend on a few different factors. Start by identifying the makeup products you are already using, and what type of brush best suits those formulas. For example, if you need a brush to help you achieve a more natural-looking application of your cream foundation, you’ll want a dense complexion brush. 

From there, think about the makeup looks you’ve been wanting to create, but don’t quite have the right tools for. Always dreamed of perfecting your contour game? Then a contour brush is a must. Want that head-to-toe glow? Add a fluffy body brush to your toolkit. 

Tips & Techniques

Flawless makeup application is achievable with the right brushes and good application techniques. Here are a few tips and techniques for getting the best results from your makeup brushes: 

• Use the Dual-Ended Blush Brush to apply cream blush on top of powder blush. This is Patrick’s viral technique for dewy, naturally radiant cheeks. 
• When using cream products over powder or other cream-based formulas, use a dense brush to lightly stamp the product into the skin, rather than buff it. This will help you get a natural application without budging the makeup underneath.
• Always consider the type of formula you are using when choosing a brush. You’ll get the best, most natural results by using a brush specifically designed for the type of makeup you are using. 

Maintenance & Care

Brush maintenance isn’t a super exciting topic, but it’s important for keeping your brushes in good shape. Wash your brushes with a gentle cleanser on a regular basis to rid them of any impurities that could otherwise harm the skin. After cleansing, dab off excess water with a clean towel, and lay your brushes out to fully dry. Air drying is best, as it will help maintain the brush’s shape and structure.

High-quality brushes are your ultimate tools for easy, achievable beauty looks. Elevate your makeup game by adding the right brushes to your arsenal.
