Niharika X Nykaa- Fluffy Angular Eyeshadow Blending Brush
Fluffy angular eyeshadow blending brushes are best for diffusing and blending colors seamlessly so that there are no harsh edges. The best thing about the fluffy angular brush is its angular design which helps the brush to do different types of touch up’s. The brush’s tip is used to blend the crease with eyeshadow and spread over the brow bone. The wide side is used to cover the inner corner and the flat side to apply on the eyelid.
Creating an outer V can be easily done with the highest part of this brush. Due to the soft bristles, the whole process is much easier than any other brush. Additionally, this brush can also be helpful to add a winged or cat layer to the eyes with the flat side of the brush. This gives the eyes a different attractive touch of makeup to create something unique.
- Eyebrow Brush
Eyebrow brushes are mostly angular with thin bristles and are used for filling and shaping the eyebrows. This gives your eyebrow perfect finishing and a fuller look. You just need to load your brush with some brow powder/shadow slightly, dusting off the extra and applying it from the inner side or from the highest point of your brow to the outer so that you can cover the whole eyebrow for a fuller and finished look.
- Eye Liner Brush
Eyeliner brushes are used to apply liquid eyeliner above the lash line to define the eyes. These brushes are thin enough to create a perfectly balanced winged or even basic eyeliner.
Simply apply a thin layer of your favorite eyeliner over the lash line in a way like you are drawing a border with a marker to highlight the eye shape and intensify the lash line without leaving any space or gap in between.

- Flat Eyeshadow Applicator Brush
The flat eyeshadow brush is similar to the eyeshadow blending brush but is denser. This is more efficient for smoking out eyeshadow over the edges. With the flat edges, you can apply the eyeshadows over your eyelids or can create a cut crease with more precision and hold on to the application.
- Dense Eyeshadow Blending Brush
The fluffy eyeshadow brush is somehow similar to the angular blending brush with some minor differences. This one is curved in shape and helps eyeshadow application over the eyelid and can be used to set the concealer with powder. The soft bristles contour the crease of the eyelid and also help in the blending of the colors.
- Brow Comb Brush
This is a two in one brush that you can add value to your kit. The uniqueness of the brush is described by its name. This comes with a brush on one end and combs on the other to brush and comb your eyebrows for well-groomed brows.
- Lower Lash Line/Lip Brush Brush
A lower lash line brush is useful for smudging and distributing makeup over the lower lash line. This helps to dab the eyeshadows under the lash line. It also helps to create a great smokey effect. In case, you find the brush too dense for the application and smudging, you can use this as your lip brush to line the lips and apply lip colors.
- Spoolie Brush
This is a must-have. Filling and shaping your eyebrows is great but not brushing them with a Spoolie can minimize the effect. The Spoolie brush spreads the brow powder or pomade evenly through the brow hairs and gives a more natural and fuller look.
- Small Applicator (Dense) Brush
The densely packed bristles are great for the cut crease, picking and patting satin or glittery shades, or applying lip color. These brushes do a great job of precision application by Intensifying the pigmentation.
