Q: How do you blend eyeshadow?
A: Small circular motions in the crease with a soft, fluffy brush, using whatever is left on the bristles rather than loading more product. Blending with a clean brush at the end softens any hard edges.
Q: Which brush is best for blending eyeshadow?
A: A soft, tapered or fluffy brush that is slightly larger than your crease, so it diffuses colour rather than depositing it. Dense brushes pack shadow on; fluffy brushes blend it out.
Q: How often should you clean eye brushes?
A: More often than face brushes. Anything used near the eye is worth washing weekly, since bacteria around the eye area is the one place you least want build-up.
