Do I have to use a powder brush for loose powder? Should I use a brush or a powder puff for loose powder?

Loose powder is usually applied with a brush, but some people use a powder puff. So in daily life, do you use a brush or a powder puff? What is the difference between using a brush and a powder puff for loose powder?

Not necessarily. In addition to using a powder brush, you can also use a powder puff. Loose powder and powder puffs have different characteristics and are suitable for women with different skin types to set makeup. If a girl with dry skin can use a powder brush, women with oily skin are better off choosing a powder puff.

Use a brush or a powder puff to set your makeup, depending on your skin. It is recommended that girls with dry skin use a powder brush, while those with oily skin prefer a powder puff. If it is a granular loose powder, you will usually be given a powder brush. Use the powder brush to apply the powder and then lightly sweep it on your face. If it is a pressed powder, just use a powder puff.

The difference between using a brush and a powder puff for loose powder is mainly reflected in the adsorption capacity, powder holding ability, and makeup effect. The powder puff has a strong adsorption capacity, and the powder is more evenly and naturally applied, while the brush has a weak adsorption capacity, and it is not easy to apply evenly with a brush. The powder puff has a strong powder holding ability and can absorb excess oil on the face, while the brush has a weak powder holding ability and cannot play a good oil control effect on oily skin. The powder puff has a thicker coating, and the skin has color difference. The brush makes makeup more natural and makes the loose powder fit the skin better.

1. After applying foundation, you should wait for a few minutes to allow the foundation to firm up before applying loose powder.

2. Dip a powder puff or makeup brush in loose powder, shake off some of it, and apply powder from top to bottom to prevent the powder from accumulating on the hair and causing unevenness on the face. Then use a makeup brush to sweep away excess powder.

3. Applying a layer of loose powder just below the eyes can prevent the eye shadow powder from falling accidentally.

4. If you use a velvet powder puff, gently press or roll it on your face to press the loose powder onto your face. Repeat this action to make the powder last longer.
