9. Makeup brushes

Makeup brushes are soft, specifically shaped, and are perfect for gently blending foundation without getting it all over your fingers. Many people who use makeup brushes apply makeup in dots then blend out with the brush.

8. Powder applicator

While some have a preference for liquid foundation, many prefer powder foundation. The powder is better for those with oily skin or who live in hotter climates. To apply powder foundation, use a broad powder brush or a puff. Swirl a wide brush around the powder case and tap to shake off the excess product. Then swirl the powder brush around the face and neck.
7. Blending sponge

Blending sponges are very popular tools to help blend concealer and contour that may be used wet or dry. After applying concealer under the eyes and in problem areas, wet the sponge and squeeze out excess water. Then use the moist sponge to dab and blend concealer into the skin.
6. Small blending brush

Small blending brushes are perfect for eyeshadow, or for smudging eyeliner into a smoky eye. This brush is used to apply the different layers of eyeshadow to create depth and a natural shape to your makeup. These brushes can also be used to apply concealer on acne or problem spots for a soft coverage of any problem areas
5. Angled liner brush

Angled liner brushes allow precision in applying liner and shadow around the eye. They also help make clean lines around lips if using lipstick. The thin edge makes creating sharp cat eyes and clean lines incredibly easy. To use this brush, simply dip the thin edge in the pressed makeup, or along the edge of the lipstick and draw with a steady hand!
4. Finishing powder

Makeup artists have come forward proclaiming this beautiful makeup accessory to be a secret weapon. Finishing powder is a very fine powder used to set the foundation and prevent creases in the makeup. To use it, just swirl a powder brush into the product and pat under the eye and under your cheekbones for a matte finish
3. Brow-shaping kit

Eyebrows help give the face shape and definition. Brow-shaping kits help make eyebrows pop-under foundation and give them a fuller appearance. Fuller eyebrows give a youthful appearance to the face, and brow-shaping kits help with ensuring the lines are clean and naturally blended. Use the brush to comb eyebrow hairs up to thicken and then drag the brush out and over the natural brow line to smooth the hair back down.
2. Highlighter

A highlighter is a beautiful tool used to give the wearer a sun-kissed, healthy glow. While this product may look like eyeshadow or blush, it is in fact a different product entirely. Highlighter is made of a finer powder to give off a natural radiance as opposed to the sparkle effect seen in blushes and eyeshadow. To use, apply the highlighter to the peaks of the face for a natural glow.
