Whether you’ve leaned into the less-is-more makeup mentality or are still committed to a full face, the best makeup brushes can take your look to the next level. In a perfect world, we’d have our own professional makeup artist magically appear at the snap of a finger, but the next best thing is asking the pros which tools they swear by, and stocking our beauty arsenals with the best brushes for the job. While the makeup you use and the techniques you’ve mastered have about 90% to do with how your look turns out, the other 10% comes down to the tools you use. And the way we see it, if you don’t have the option of calling up Michelle Obama’s makeup artist for a daytime look, you can at least get one step closer by using the makeup brushes he always keeps on hand.
