Product FAQ+

can i use brush 01 with cream eyeshadows or just powder?

community members regularly use brush 01 with both powder and cream formulas. about 20% specifically mention cream shadows, reporting smooth application and easy blending. the natural bristles grip cream products without absorbing too much, though a small number of community members noted powder formulas feel slightly easier to work with.

will this work on hooded eyes?

many community members with hooded eyes consider brush 01 a go-to. roughly 15% of reviews specifically mention hooded eyes, and the majority of those are positive, noting the tapered shape fits well into the crease. about 12% feel the brush head is slightly large for limited lid space. turning the brush to its narrower edge can help with precision in tighter areas.

can i do a full eye look with just this one brush?

this is one of the most common use cases community members describe. around 65% say they can complete an entire eye look with brush 01 alone. lay the flat side down to sweep color across the lid, then rotate to the narrower edge to deepen the crease or outer corner. the tapered tip also works for subtle blending along the lower lash line.

how do i use brush 01 for blending vs. packing on shadow?

community members recommend using the wider, flat side to pat and pack color onto the lid for stronger payoff. for blending, use the tapered tip or turn the brush on its narrow edge and sweep with light, windshield-wiper motions through the crease. roughly 52% of community members rely on it as their primary crease blending brush.

is brush 01 good for beginners who don't use many brushes?

community members frequently recommend brush 01 as a first or only eye brush. its shape handles multiple tasks, from laying down a base shade to blending edges, so you do not need a large collection to get a polished result. about 10% of community members specifically call it beginner friendly, noting it requires very little technique to achieve a smooth, blended look.
