e.l.f. Brushes!

hi guys i'm anna the global makeup artist here at elk cosmetics and i'm miles i'm the senior product development manager at elf and we're here to talk to you about our award-winning vegan and cruelty-free makeup brushes [Music] okay anna so as a makeup artist tools are essential for us like we love love love having our tool belt full of makeup brushes and one of my favorite things about makeup brushes is besides giving you a perfect application it keeps things super sanitary and what's really great about elf brushes is that it has a great value to it so one brush is like a portion of a price of another brand brush which is amazing so you can have multiple brushes in your kit without having to break the bank with all elf products they're vegan cruelty free so talk about our duo complexion brush because this is one of our newest ones that we just came out with and i absolutely love it so yeah so this is actually a two in one makeup brush this is the dual complexion brush and it was originally designed specifically for the camo cc cream but it works beautifully for all of your foundation and complexion products so this large buffing side is going to give you a flawless beautiful application and it has a smaller makeup brush on the other side to really get into the smaller areas of the face like around the nose under the eye so the larger end of the brush is perfect to blend out your foundation like flawless foundation or your camo cc cream and then you can use this smaller side to get around the nose under the eyes and even like around your um your eyebrows like people forget about that but this is having two in one makeup brush and so you don't have to carry on multiple brushes and the next product is our putty primer applicator this is a dual sided brush that allows you to get in the putty primers without having to dip your fingers in it so it keeps it really sanitary the scooped end allows you to pick up that pea size amount and then the other side allows you to buff in the product for a smooth complexion so the putty blush brush is our newest member of the putty brush family and with this you've got a small dual fiber head that gives you the perfect airbrush application for your cream products like putty blush it's also one of my favorites for concealer and blending out complexion products because it gives you such a beautiful airbrush effect i second that so i use that to help buff out my complexion products so that it does give me that airbrush look and you won't get any streaks and it just looks so effortless and natural on the skin which is why i absolutely love this brush and then um one of my favorite eye brushes is actually the smoky eye brush kit this is actually an award-winning kit it comes with five brushes and each brush has its own purpose but the good thing about this is that you can use it for whatever you'd like so the softer bristle longer hair brushes are meant to fluff and blend out and then the more dense bristle brushes like these two here are meant to pack on that color and give you that intense color payoff then you have the liner brush the angled brush that you can use for your eyeliner you can use it for your brows and then you have the lip brush here that you can also use it for spot treatment for your concealer and any blemishes that you have which is why i absolutely love this this actually i use for blending out my concealer as well so this buffs and it's so funny i actually use that one to set my concealer it's a perfect kind of multi-use brush it fits right underneath the eye area and you can kind of blend or buff or set your makeup perfect and anna i love that you mentioned that anything can be used multi multiple ways one thing that i think people often forget is that makeup is meant to be playful so just because we say that something's an eyeshadow brush doesn't mean you can't use it for your face um like you know the the fluffy eye blender it's originally designed for the eye area but like we were just talking about we use it to set our concealer or buff out your concealer um on set i actually like to use this to set makeup on people's faces because the smaller area doesn't let product go all over the place so brushes and tools are are really meant to be used however makes that makes the most sense for you but rule of thumb is look at the size of the brush to the the size of the area that you're putting it on that's kind of like how you can determine all right i can use this brush for this because sometimes if you have like a really big brush and you're really just trying to get underneath it can really mess up the rest of your makeup another multi-purpose like this small precision brush you know you can use it as a lip brush but i actually use this to carve out my lips so if i'm doing a strong bold lip i'll use a little bit of concealer on the back of my hand and i'll crisp up my lines by outlining my lip with this i love that yeah and while we're talking about smoky eye brush she loves this one for all her lip needs i actually like to pack on like liquid glitter eyeshadow in the inner corner or do some detail work with this to give you that really intense pops of color because of the stiffer bristles yep and talk about our pointed powder brush please because that's both of our favorites okay so in terms of powder brushes i love this pointed powder brush because it does all those things that we really just talked about so with the point it's going to get right up into the under eye this is my favorite brush to use with halo glow setting powder dip a tiny bit in swirl it around and then really just kind of press and distribute evenly on the face because of the point you're really you can distribute product evenly across the face and also not feel like it's going to fling everywhere i use this brush for that as well as our powder bronzer so i'll use that to bronze up my skin and then i'll also use this believe it or not for blush as well so my powder brushes blushes i use this so i have like three different brushes i use one for the setting powder one for the bronzer and one for the blush because it is so affordable i'm able to do that so i love this brush because it's so fluffy and that pointed end really helps give you that precision when you do apply love that yeah all right guys so we hope you learned some things about our award-winning vegan and cruelty-free makeup brushes thank you so much for watching see you guys soon bye
