This comparison of the brushes was so helpful! Love how you listed the brush number! I can’t remember them all so I like that you kept the text on screen!

I just discovered your channel. You had me at “I have arthritis”. I am in my ‘60’s but continue to enjoy makeup and beauty. Your content is extremely relevant to me. And you are also organized, to the point and clear in your delivery . Thank you!

I loved this video! It was so informative and detailed! You didn't leave any part to wonder about or over think. You can buy a million brushes, but if you don't know where to use them or how they work best, your still going to end up with a mess! So, this really helped define what brush, where to use it and how much pressure you use to get the perfect look.
I'm sure you thought about everything you explained a million times in your head, lol! I know, because at our age, you just do that. You want your message to come off clear and to the point.
A really smart video for anyone whoever held a certain brush and asked "What do I do with this?" LOL. I bought a set of 50 natural brushes, some are repeats so you have extras, and I would frequently wonder what to do with a certain brush. You answered all my questions. Thank you very much, from a lady who quit wearing makeup for 20 years, and is now playing the game again!!!

I love the 106 for so many things - foundation, cream bronzer, cream and liquid blush, glowy primer. Until I can buy a second I have the ELF ultimate blending brush which does a similar enough job to have when the 106 is dirty or I need similar brush for different products on same day application.

[kristinam]

My favorite brush by far is the 106. I use it for both powder or liquid foundation as well as blending out contour and cream blush. I also find the 204 smudge brush for the eyes to be extremely useful to smudge out eyeliner so you don’t have harsh lines. Btw, you did a great job on your makeup!!

Love this video! It was so helpful as to help me decide what brushes I want to buy. I love all of the BK Beauty brushes that I currently have.I love the 101 and my favorite is 109. Thanks for this info!

This was very good Bobbie. I hope Angie and Lisa see this, cause you did a great job explaining/demonstrating. It's nice their sold separately. It does make a difference, size wise regarding a small face/eyes. Thank you👍

I really enjoyed you help and your comments.
Best wishes,

I’m pretty new here and I am loving getting to know you! This video was so helpful. I appreciate the “how to” as well as your honest reviews!! Thanks so much!

[lisaharr]

This was a great video Bobbie ! I love makeup but I honestly didn’t know the purpose of so many different sizes and shapes ! Now I do ! Thanks you for teaching me ! 😃

[michellekelly]

This video was very helpful. I'm so glad I found you!! It's nice to hear how others are using the brushes. When I apply eyeshadow and want to remove the excess powder after dipping into the shadow, I always (gently) tap the brush head (not the side of the brush) onto the back of my hand (the left hand if you're applying with your right hand). When I do this, the excess powder will be left on the top of my hand. As I'm applying the shadow to my eyes, and I need more shadow, I'll just keep dipping back into the powder left on the top of my hand until it's gone. Repeat as needed! Think of the top of your hand as an artist's palette! This way you don't waste any eyeshadow, and it doesn't end up floating around in the air (and into your lungs!).

Makeup brushes have always mystified me.
This is the best video I have seen which explains and demonstrates brushes. Finally I have a tutorial to follow - so thorough!
I now see that my brushes are a long way from ideal.

Thank you❣️

Thanks for the video, the bkbeauty brushes, they really are beautiful and their different shapes are out of the ordinary of other brushes. I really wish I could have some, but unfortunately the price is a little bit expensive.
Also thank you so much for all your videos, they have served me so much to understand and make up my aunt and my mother. 🥰😃

My favorite BK Beauty brush is definitely the 106. It’s the only brush I take when traveling…does my stick foundation, stick bronzer and stick or cream blush. Love it so much, I have two. I do like the Angie Hot and Flashy concealer brush the most of all the concealer brushes I’ve tried. Thanks for sharing your favorites.

[karenw]

My BK Beauty are a favorite of mine and Rephr.

[suziediva]

You are soo right about the A506. It was my first purchase & I was disappointed for the same reasons you were! Now I am holding off buying any unless I see someone else give me a credible review... & you did that for me. This was an awesome video. I do believe in Lisa, just that brush needed more bristles and needed to be slightly stiffer for the concealer application. Thanks. I now have a few of the bk beauty brushes on my wish list.

[debbiewalker]

Great video Bobbie ! I have the same problem with the Angie concealer brush, being that my eyes are so small. I went back to applying with my ring finger, and working it in well. I’ve been using the Angie blush brush, and it works well, but always end up going too far down with it, again because my face is small, so I’m going to use it for my powder foundation. I love all the BK brushes ! I also have some rephr brushes, but I find myself reaching for the BK way more. Have a nice weekend ! ☺️💜☺️

[rozarem]

you’re beautiful. I like your blue eyes and the way how you to talk(explain). I will follow as you did ❤

[ibsunshinesu]
