From the Chair: 3 Reasons to Love the Ultra-Fine Liner Brush

 

Alima Pure Ultra Fine Line Brush

The Ultra-Fine Liner Brush is one of the unsung heroes of the AP Brush Collection, heralded by makeup artists for its glorious multitasking powers and ability to compose that ultra-polished look. Whether you’re looking for minimalist definition, or something bold and dramatic, this is the liner and lip brush for the job. Use it for precise eyeliner application, long-lasting lip color, and even for spot concealing. Test it both wet and dry as an eyeliner brush to get two distinct looks with some of the loose mineral powders from our Eyes collection. Here's how:

Dry:
Loose powder full of rich mineral pigment is perfect for adding subtle and wearable definition at the lash line, or for tightlining between the lashes. Pair with Satin Matte Eyeliner or Luminous Shimmer Eyeliner, and use the tip of the Ultra-Fine Liner Brush to fill in the spaces between your lashes, or softly line the upper and lower lashlines.

Wet:
Mix a bold Luminous Shimmer Eyeliner like Carnevale or a sleek matte like Satin Matte Eyeshadow in Black Violet with a few drops of water to make a smooth liquid formula. Use the flat side of the brush to apply liner, and extend past the outer corner of the eye for a more dramatic finish.

Layered:
Start with a wet layer of color, and after it dries, follow with more dry powder over the line for a bolder impact of color.
