He's among them accessories most used and its particular shape is specifically designed to facilitate the adhesion of the products, perfectly camouflaging the imperfections of the face.

The classic model with a wide, rounded tip is ideal for this operation. For blush and bronzers, Kabuki with diagonally cut bristles is perfect, this allows greater practicality and application of the product on cheeks and cheekbones, guaranteeing a very natural effect.
