Professional makeup brushes are designed to be used
by makeup artists, however the quality and
durability of these brushes makes them a good
choice for everyone. The following outlines some of
the things to consider when shopping for your
professional makeup brushes.
• There are 3 general categories of fibers used for
makeup brush bristles; natural, synthetic or a mix of
the two. The brushes made with both natural and
synthetic fibers are commonly referred to as duo
fibre.
• Natural fiber brushes are more durable than
synthetic brushes and are good at applying dry
products such as blush, bronzer, powder and mineral
foundations.
• There are several hair types within the natural fiber
category. Professional brushes made of natural
fibers may have squirrel, pony, goat or sable hair.
• Camel hair is a generic term used to describe
brushes made from a mix of squirrel, goat or
pony hair.
• Synthetic bristles are made of nylon and are
less absorbent than natural fibers. Because
synthetic makeup brushes are less absorbent,
they are particularly useful for applying liquid
foundation and other wet products.
• A complete set of professional brushes may
include upwards of 32 brushes, since there
are makeup brushes designed for every
aspect of makeup application. A makeup
artist may require all of these brushes, but
for others a smaller selection of 8-10
brushes is typically a good number.
• Purchasing makeup brush sets is typically a
more economical way to purchase multiple
brushes. If you start with a good cosmetic
brush set with 8-10 pieces, you can gradually
add individual brushes to your collection over
time.
