" Thank you for visiting expertvillage.com we are going to be discussing different makeup applicators, how to take care of them, and how to clean them. The smaller the brush, the smaller the area you are working on for example if you want to fill in the eyebrow right here then use a tiny brush because I want to fill in a tiny area. You don't want to use a big brush boom, Groucho Marks eyebrows. You know we don't want to do that. So the smaller the area the smaller size brush. So if I'm going to apply eyeliner then I want a skinny brush. If I'm dusting the whole eye then I can take a large brush. So kind of think about the area that you are working on and if you only want to fill in a little part of the brow then just get a tiny little brush and fill that in. you can get brushes from art stores. You can get them from department stores. A lot of these brushes are paint brushes. As long as they are sable, squirrel hair, camel hair, if they are real hair they would last for years. Just take care of them and wash them and they would just last years. I think I had some of these 7 or 8 years. So I'm going to take a small brush because I want to work in a small area. So I'm going to take a eyebrow color which is a brown and then try to match the hair color as close as possible. So I'm going to take like a brown color and I'm going to apply it where I think that she needs a little strip and you can see the difference between the two brows. I don't do a lot but this really helps the eye look just beautiful with finish product. It is just like having a beautiful painting without a frame and what I'm doing is making the frame of her eye just beautiful so that way my painting will look even more beautiful. Alright so I'm just filling it in. see you can see the difference in the strength of this eyebrow and this eyebrow. Okay I'm going to do the other side."
