When applying makeup, using your fingers may seem like the easier, cost-efficient route, but germs and bacteria can spread onto skin and you might not get the most even or well-blended coverage. Makeup brushes are a great way to ensure that makeup is perfectly blended while avoiding bacteria (that can result from directly touching your face). Not to mention, brushes help apply makeup faster and more effectively. Just don’t forget to clean your brushes on a regular basis—you can either use a mild shampoo or dish soap. Once the bristles wear out and don’t work as effectively, it’s time to replace the brush. Whether your beauty routine is simple and to the point or involves numerous steps, we’ve got makeup brushes for every look—and they’re vegan, too.

Additionally, oils present on your fingertips can transfer to your face, potentially causing blotchiness and disrupting the integrity of your foundation. This can affect the longevity and performance of your makeup. When observing others, it’s often evident who has utilized a brush versus those who have relied solely on their fingers.
