I recently bought a blusher from BE i Golden Gate, but I'm still wondering which brush would be the best to use? Hitherto, I've been using an angled blush brush from GloMinerals, but it is not particularly soft, and sheds a bit too.Sad

Any recommendations?

Hello Nemi my dear! Actually I think an angled brush is fine to use with loose blush--- I do it all the time. The thing is, you need a really nice, soft one, both for the sake of your skin and also to make your blush go on more smoothly. This angled brush from Sephora is my daily driver:

It's sooo soft and silky and it makes my blush look really nice. HTH!

My favorite brushes for blush are the MAC Fiber Optic Brush or the Jane Iredale Fan Brush.

I find mineral blushes are generally VERY pigmented. The only blush I can use to apply them with without looking like a clown is MAC #187 Duo Fiber Brush. Lightly dab it into the pot, shake off some excess and sweep in across my cheeks and blend, blend, blend. That's the way to go for me. Smile

Thanks, folks Smile Sephora is out of the question in this less developed country, but I will have a look into the other options. Actually, I quite like angled blush brushes, but this particular one isn't very good.

How about a BE brush? I have the soft focus face brush, and a new brush called the full flawless. Both work good for applying mineral face colors.
