This month on In The Spotlight, celebrity makeup artist and MYKITCO co-founder James Molloy is revealing the secrets to achieving flawless foundation coverage for any occasion. If you're not getting the coverage you desire, the issue might be with your brushes. Throughout his makeup career, James has worked on countless faces, each with its own unique needs and he has used this wealth of experience to curate the ultimate makeup tools for flawless application. This month, he's sharing his three expertly crafted brushes to help you avoid uneven, cakey foundation and achieve a perfectly polished finish every time!
0.18 - MY STIPPLING FOUNDATION
If a beautiful sheer base is your go-to then this is the brush for you! The 0.18 - MY STIPPLING FOUNDATION has long ultra-flexible fibres which are able to sheer out product seamlessly and give a feather like application. When working with this brush it is essential to use the lightest touch, the long, finer fibres pick up product whilst the shorter, denser fibres allow for control and the ultimate blend. James likes to use this brush in a gentle circular motion as it provides a luminous application.
Key features:
- Long flexible fibres allow for seamless brush strokes.
- The shorter, denser fibres provide ultimate control.
- Feather-like fibres give the lightest application!
0.22 - MY FLAWLESS FACE medium
The taper of this brush is the secret to a streak-free medium coverage! James likes to use this brush in two ways. Firstly by applying an initial coverage, working in larger brush strokes to achieve a flawless base. Secondly, using the 0.22 - MY FLAWLESS FACE medium tapered tip in a stippling motion to build coverage where needed and avoiding a cakey finish or any harsh lines.
Key features:
- Tapered tip helps to pick up the perfect amount of product.
- The larger brush head allows for softer brush strokes.
- The tapered tip fits flawlessly into the smaller contours of the face to avoid a cakey finish.
0.7 - MY FLAWLESS FOUNDATION
This brush acts as a better beauty blender! The dense, flat fibres allow for a bouncing motion on the skin which is ideal for building a full coverage. The size of the 0.7 - MY FLAWLESS FOUNDATION brush head also gives you a targeted application so you can cover every area of the face with ease!
Key features:
- The gentle curve of this brush head allows you to reach every contour of the face.
- The flat, dense fibres allow for bouncing product on the skin which is perfect for building coverage.
- The smaller size of this brush head means you can cover the skin perfectly!
