To Buy or Not To Buy - the Duo Fiber Brush.
I think when you are just getting into make-up, the duo-fiber brush can come across as a bit of a - do I really need it? product, as it's not necessarily a 'classic' brush that you see and recognize everywhere. It's one of those things that you know about if you are actually into make-up.
At least that's the feeling I had at first, and so that's why I decided to make this video to kind of outline why you would get it, and why you wouldn't..
Here are the main reasons why..
- You have multiple foundations - different foundations need different applicators! :)
- You aren't happy with how your foundation applies at the moment.
- You can get it for really cheap, and so there's not much to lose.. even if you don't like it..
- ..you can use it for powders, blush, highlighter and contour as well.
Here are reasons why you shouldn't..
- You are already happy with how your make-up applies.. basically, lol.
Take a look at my video for more details.. :)
(Great screenshot, I know! :P)
I personally bought one because I heard about the "air-brushed" finish that you can get, and I've never regretted it. It's such a versatile brush that I think no matter what price-range brush you get, it is a good investment. It broadens the potential of your products, and gives them a different finish from another tool that you may already have. I fully recommend it! :)
Here are where you can get some stippling brushes:
- MAC Cosmetics
- Superdrug
- Ebay
- Sigma Make up
- E.L.F UK
- GOSH (Thanks Christina :))
Hope you guys found this helpful, and let me know if you have any questions! :)

Gosh also has a stipling brush though i've never tried it. The stipling brush is a definate staple imo. (: thank you for the vid!
ReplyDeleteI love my sigma duo fibre brush, I use it everyday for my foundation and sometimes for bronzer too =)
ReplyDeleteReally helpful video! Thankyouuu :) I have the ELF Brush, which i quite like, but not for foundation xx
ReplyDeletei love the skunk brushes they are so versatile :)
ReplyDeleteI really like the Sigma Dupe of the large 187 brush. Works almost as good as the MAC one! ♥
ReplyDelete@Christina T. - Oh yes I'd forgotten about that! Added it to the list with your link :)
ReplyDelete@Hannahh x - How come? Is it your personal preference or the brush itself, cuz I'm thinking of getting a back-up to use it with either powder or liquid :)
@Vida, Monica, Princesa Livia - Thanks for your comments, I love getting them! I'm glad we seem to agree that these brushes are a must-have lol! :)
Hey! I have a sigma F50...but which stippling brush can you get from superdrug? I've been searching but they don't seem to have that.
ReplyDelete@Beauty By Belle - It's from a brand called QVS, it might only be available in bigger Superdrugs. Have you tried ELF? :)
ReplyDeleteoh ok...I have actually bought a flat foundation from QVS but I don't really like it...I haven't tried ELF yet but I've heard some nice things about it...love your blog by the way!
