paint brushes? lol.

[krackatoa]

so, i was browsing through the art store and saw some of the paint brushes. so, i wondered can they be used to apply make up? they didn't feel any different than other brushes cause they were made of synthetic fiber?

sorry if this is a silly question.

I use them all the time.

Yup. I use seven from Loew-Cornell see picture of five.

I have two green handled ones, small and medium dome round #272's that I use for adding contour to my crease.

I only use paint brushes. You can get animal hair paint brushes, too, but my makeup looks fine with synthetics.

They're a lot cheaper and decent to outstanding quality normally. There's no label or salesperson to tell you if this brush is good for lining or contouring, but if you have difficulties with that, just observe the shape and size of marketed makeup brushes.

Paint brushes are a great great, cheap and effective way to go...
