Swap Makeup Brushes For Paint Brushes

Do you cringe every time you drop 40 bucks on a makeup brush? Well, the next time you're in the market for one, try a high-quality paint brush instead. Watercolor brushes are great for detail work with liner, spot concealer, and eyeshadow, because they mimic the fiber density of conventional makeup brushes. Keep your blush, powder, and foundation brushes, though: no paint brush will be able to replicate their even distribution of powder.
