The powder brush is also the perfect stippling brush - not tried stippling? Then see foundation application as you have not seen it before. In essence the fiber tips of the brush create the perfect stippling effect - lots of tiny dots of foundation on your face for an airbrushed finish. If you love the feel of a foundation brush then this is definitely worth a try - there are some great You Tube vidoes detailing the stippling effect for foundation application - Put simply, you apply a small amount of liquid foundation to the back of your hand (or on a little palette or make up dish), you then dip the tips of your Whisper Powder Brush into the product and then gently but quickly bounce the brush on your face so that the tips of the brush transfer the product to your face. As you do this you will see the brush become almost clean and dry again; at that point you dip and stipple again. Remember that foundation should not be rubbed into your skin, it is not moisturiser, it should feel moist on your face (unless you are using a cream to powder). This stippling technique gives a superb finish - utterly flawless, with a medium coverage.
