Is it better to use a powder puff or a brush for loose powder? What is the difference between using a powder puff and a brush for loose powder?

Loose powder is a kind of cosmetic that we often see in our daily life. Many girls use loose powder, but each girl uses it differently. So let's find out whether it is better to use a powder puff or a brush for loose powder? What is the difference between a powder puff and a brush for loose powder?

The effect of loose powder brush is much better than that of powder puff. Because it is more flexible to apply makeup with loose powder brush, you don't have to worry about accidentally applying too much loose powder, which will cause your face to be too dry and produce fine lines. And when using loose powder brush, it is mainly done by sweeping, which is more effective than pressing with powder puff, and can make the makeup look more natural. Powder puffs are generally larger in area and flatter in shape. If you use a powder puff to apply loose powder, you usually press the entire powder puff into the loose powder box to dip it. Once you apply it too hard, you will dip too much powder, which will easily clog the pores after applying it on the face. And for people with dry skin, it will make the skin drier, and in severe cases it may cause skin peeling. When choosing a loose powder brush, you must choose a brush with a large brush head and soft bristles. Because the larger the brush head area, the more natural the makeup will be. Imagine if the brush head shape is too small, the limitation when applying loose powder is very large, and it can only be applied to a small area. This can easily cause loose powder to accumulate and make the local skin too dry. And if the area of ​​the loose powder brush is particularly large, even if you dip too heavily when applying the powder, a lot of powder will fly away after applying it on your face, and the final amount left on your face is just right.

The difference between using a brush and a powder puff for loose powder is mainly reflected in the adsorption capacity, powder grabbing capacity, and makeup effect. The powder puff has strong adsorption capacity, and the powder is more evenly and naturally applied, while the brush has weak adsorption capacity, and it is not easy to apply evenly with a brush. The powder puff has strong powder grabbing capacity and can absorb excess facial oil, while the brush has weak powder grabbing capacity and cannot play a good oil control effect on oily skin. The powder puff coating is thicker, and the skin has color difference. The brush makes makeup more natural and makes the loose powder fit the skin better. Advantages of the powder puff: strong adsorption capacity. The makeup is exquisite and flawless, and the powder is more evenly and naturally applied. The key is that the powder puff has a better texture and strong adsorption capacity. Strong powder grabbing capacity. If the loose powder is used properly, it can absorb excess facial oil and is not afraid of makeup smudges. Disadvantages of the powder puff: Also because it grabs more powder, the makeup will feel too fake after applying it on the face, and the skin texture will be highlighted. Advantages of the loose powder brush: the amount of powder grabbed is easy to control. Dip the powder brush in loose powder and gently sweep it on your face. The amount of powder applied will not be too much, and the makeup will be more natural. Disadvantages of loose powder brush: some loose powder brushes are made of fiber bristles. If your skin is sensitive and fragile, it is recommended to use a powder puff.

Most loose powders are equipped with a special loose powder puff for applying loose powder. Using a powder puff to apply loose powder is the most direct and simplest method. When using it, dip the puff in an appropriate amount of loose powder and press it directly on various parts of the face. The only thing you need to pay attention to is the technique, which is to pat the loose powder evenly by gently pressing. First, dip a loose powder puff in an appropriate amount of loose powder and press it evenly on the face. Be careful not to apply it horizontally or vertically. The loose powder is patted open by gently pressing. Use a loose powder brush to brush away excess loose powder on the face so that the loose powder can better fit the skin.

1. The skin is too dry: Setting powder usually has a refreshing and oil-controlling setting effect, but if the skin itself is very dry and not well moisturized, it is easy to become very dry after applying foundation. In this state, using setting powder will make the face even drier and affect the appearance of the makeup.

2. The base makeup is too thick: Many people apply too much foundation in order to cover facial blemishes or without knowing the amount. This will not only make the face look fake, white and thick, but also affect the subsequent use of setting powder, causing the makeup to fall off easily.
