Which brand of makeup brushes is good in Cangzhou? What kind of bristles are good for makeup brushes?

The saying “There are tens of thousands of domestic makeup brushes, and half of them are from Cangzhou, China” is not an exaggeration. When you don’t know what brand of makeup brushes to buy, you can give priority to Cangzhou. So which brand of makeup brushes in Cangzhou is the best?

1.ShouShouWolf Lily of the Valley Series

Price: 135 RMB for 13 makeup brushes, pretty good, the cooler sky blue with pearlescent, very artistic in appearance, the fiber bristles are also soft, the lily of the valley bristles are more airy and quick-drying than ordinary fiber bristles. The handle has a little smell, but it will be ok after washing and drying for a while.

2. Enoch makeup brush set

11-piece magnetic brush set Price: 168 RMB This brush set is a conscientious product, with a reasonable mix of animal hair and fiber hair, but the foundation brush is too tight and hard, which pricks the face a bit, but everything else is pretty good. In fact, the key design is quite special, the bottom of the brush handle is a golden magnet, which can be easily attached to the magnetic brush holder, making it easy to clean and dry.

3. Qinzhi Lilac Series Makeup Brush

12-piece set price: 198rmb, including loose powder brush + contour brush + foundation brush + blush brush + highlight brush + blending brush + color brush + nose shadow brush + eye shadow brush + eyebrow brush + concealer brush + eyebag brush. You can consider this, it is more complete. How should I put it? Their brushes have a series, giving people a poetic and picturesque feeling, with a strong artistic atmosphere.

4. MintBear 8-Piece Short Handle Portable Makeup Brush Set

GreyBear series price: 119 RMB. I have used a set of 7 brushes from their GreyBear series before. The bristles are really super soft and very comfortable to apply makeup. I happened to see this set of 8 brushes some time ago. It seems that there are 7 brushes plus a lip brush. This combination is really thoughtful~~ It includes a blush brush, a contouring brush, a slanted eyeshadow brush, a standard eyeshadow brush, a highlighter brush, an eyebrow brush, a concealer brush, and a retractable portable lip brush, a total of 8 brushes, with a gift box packaging. I was shocked when I received it. The box was packed as well as the packaging of a mobile phone! The last set is MintBear makeup brushes, which are mainly fiber-haired. They are also brushes from Cangzhou, but shipped from Changzhou. They are professionally made soft makeup brushes with a high cost performance.

Relatively speaking, animal hair is better but more expensive. Makeup brushes are divided into artificial fibers and animal hair. Animal hair is a natural hair scale, so it can absorb and release products very well - it has a good powder-grabbing ability, a long service life and a relatively high price.

Goat hair: It is more cost-effective than the common hair used in makeup brushes. Goat hair can be divided into high, medium and low grades, such as fine hair and ultra-fine hair. Relatively speaking, the hair with a thinner diameter and longer hair tip will be more expensive. It is generally used as a large brush such as loose powder brush, honey powder brush and blush brush, which is very suitable for applying makeup on a large area.

Horsehair: A widely used and moderately priced animal hair. The natural tips of horsetail hair are suitable for eye smudges, have medium powder holding power, and can release powder evenly. It is also the preferred eyeshadow brush for beginners.

In general, animal hair brushes are suitable for smudged large-area makeup, small-scale multi-layer makeup, and mainly used for loose powder eye shadow, etc. However, animal hair is not very friendly to allergic constitutions and may cause allergies. It is also best not to use animal hair for wet cosmetics, which will easily cause the bristles to clump and leave obvious brush marks on the face.

This is also the reason why some people have a bad impression of artificial fiber makeup brushes. What I mentioned above is the old-fashioned artificial hair. Nowadays, these artificial hairs that prick the face only appear in cheap products. It should be admitted that the quality of artificial fiber makeup brushes varies. Some can be bought very cheaply, so the touch is really not good.

But nowadays, as people have an increasing demand for makeup brushes, material scientists are constantly exploring and creating various novel bristles to replace animal bristles. Now there are bionic hair, nano hair, bamboo charcoal fiber hair, collagen hair and other fiber hairs comparable to animal hair on the market.

In fact, according to our makeup steps

[Makeup steps] Primer - Liquid foundation - Concealer - Loose powder - Eye shadow - Eyeliner - Highlight - Shadow - Blush - Eyebrow - Lipstick

In this order, the makeup brushes needed for a complete makeup look are:

Foundation brush, concealer brush, loose powder brush, eye shadow brush, highlight brush, shadow brush, blush brush, eyebrow brush, lip brush

This is basically what is needed for a complete makeup look, and for the eye shadow part, you need 2 to 3 types of brushes: a blending brush, a medium eye shadow brush, and a small detail eye shadow brush.

This point is for eye shadow. I won't say much about other brushes, as they all have their own functions. However, it is different for eye shadow brushes. The large eye shadow brush (smudge brush) can be used as a nose shadow brush, while the medium eye shadow brush can be used as a concealer brush. This will make the concealer more integrated with the base makeup and appear more natural and docile, which is slightly better than a dedicated concealer brush (for beginners).

As for the universal brush, it is basically a round brush and can be used as a powder brush and blush brush. However, you need to clean it thoroughly after use to avoid any blush color. Otherwise, you will not be able to apply powder later and the entire base makeup will appear red, which is not good looking! So be careful.
