To achieve some flawless makeup looks, it is important you start with the right tools. It may seem un-necessary, or a load of fuss to have a bunch of makeup and then need to have makeup brushes and other accessories, but it can really help take your makeup game to a whole new level of perfection. So, make these small investments that will be sure to last you a lifetime and keep on reading to find out the best beauty tools you need for a flawless makeup look!
An eyelash curler is a long-loved favourite of many. It is a simple, affordable tool that you can pick up from nearly any drugstore. The Kevin Aucoin eyelash curlers are a cult beauty favourite. It may seem a bit scary at first, clamping your eyelash, but once you get the hang of it, it will take you no time at all. You should use the eyelash curler before applying mascara, it will help lift and curl your natural lash which is a winner for anyone with straight lashes. You clamp your eyelashes at the root for around fifteen-twenty seconds and it shouldn’t be painful. When you apply mascara, you should notice a lifted, curled look to your eyes, what is not to love?
Tweezers may seem like an obvious must-have for flawless makeup looks. But they are useful for so many things. Not only do they get annoying eyebrow hairs gone in an instant, but they are also great for applying eyelashes with or dealing with pesky ingrown hairs. It is vital to always have this helpful tool at hand.
Doing your makeup without a mirror is nearly impossible, unless you are very talented. One of the best investments you can make is an illuminated mirror. This may seem very Hollywood and unnecessary, but it allows you to have flawless makeup application both day and night with direct, clear lighting. My favourite is the no7 illuminated mirror. Unlike a bog-standard mirror which can cast shadows, an illuminated mirror can brighten and show you what area needs your attention and with a range of light options to choose from, you won’t be short of choice, no matter your situation. There is also a magnifying side which can help when applying eyeshadow. So, if you want to avoid foundation marks, be sure to invest in one of these to change your life forever!
If you don’t want to fuss around with countless makeup brushes, the best one to invest your money in is a beauty blender. This is a makeup sponge that will change your makeup game forever. It is a multipurpose product that can flawlessly blend out foundation, concealer, powder and cream blush to name a few. It can be used damp or dry, depending on your preference and can then be used to bounce in products and creams. This is much more hygienic and perfecting than using your hands to achieve flawless makeup looks.
Cleansing may seem like a chore, but it is a necessity for clean and healthy skin. Instead of using your hands, try this LUNA 2 cleansing brush. This two-minute skincare ritual help illuminate and refine your skin, apparently in just three days! This small but mighty device offers 12 adjustable pulsations to provide a deep clean like no other. Simply apply your favourite cleanser and use circular motions all over the face. Rinse and dry to finish off the salon-worthy device.
