Sébastien Tardif, celebrity makeup artist and cofounder of Veil Cosmetics, created another lip brush you don’t want to sleep on. “I adore our Veil Cosmetics Lip and Cheek Brush because I always find most lip brushes too small or too flimsy. And don’t get me started with the retractable types that always break or fall apart,” he says. “The rounded tip I designed allows for a perfect Cupid’s bow, and it always follows your mouth’s natural shape. It’s good for full or thinner lips, as the brush can be used flat or sideways for more precision.” An excellent question! Like wandlore, the subject of brushes is a deep area of beauty study. The subject of brushes owes as much to individual preference as to science and structure. Everyone has passionately-held beliefs about which brushes are best the mere question of natural or synthetic? is enough to get makeup lovers arguing passionately for hours.
