1. Basic Brush Kit:
Concealer brush, eye shadow brush, eye liner brush, blush brush.

Two, Material Issues:
Choose as much as possible soft, elastic, non-irritating animal hair, so that the makeup can be uniform and adhered, not easily falling powder, creating a perfect color.

Three, more common materials:
Animal hair: Mink, horse, mountain sheep, squirrel, pig bristle.
Artificial wool: Made from nylon and synthetic man-made fibers.

Four, Comparison of Common Materials:

Mink hair: It is one of the better bristle, with a soft and moderate texture.
Horse hair: The texture is harder than mountain wool, often used as an eye shadow brush.
Wool from mountain goats: the most common brush hair, with a soft and durable texture.
Squirrel fur: cheaper than mink, soft in texture.
Synthetic fibers: Harder than animal hair, suitable for thick, paste-like makeup.
Nylon: The hardest material, often used for eyelash and brow brushes.

Five, the skills of choosing makeup brushes:
The bristles are soft and smooth, the structure is tight and full, the bristles are not easy to fall off, and the handle is convenient to use.
Notes:
Gently comb the bristles with your fingers, and you can see if the brush will shed; press the brush lightly on your hand and draw a semi-circle, and you can see if the cutting of the hair is even; to distinguish the authenticity of the bristles: blow hot air on the bristles, if they maintain their shape, it's animal hair, if they curl, it's synthetic fiber.

Step 6: Cleaning your makeup brushes:
Daily Maintenance: After use, wipe off excess makeup with a tissue, following the brush's direction.
Regular maintenance: Maintain once a week by soaking the brush in a diluted warm soapy water, cleaning it along the hair, and then rinsing it with cold water. Use a paper towel to slightly absorb the moisture, and then arrange it on a dry towel to dry.
Notes: Allow the brush to dry naturally, do not use a hair dryer to dry it, or leave it in the sun to dry, as this may damage the material; after cleaning, you can also soak it in hair conditioner for a while, which will make the bristles softer.
