Reviews

Love JI brushes! This one

"Love JI brushes! This one in particular is great for blending!"

Judy H. (5/5)

Good, but not the best for this purpose

"I've been using the Jane Iredale Multiuse Blending brush to apply foundation and I prefer it to this brush. The Foundation brush head is smaller and might be good for touching up, but for overall liquid foundation application and blending, I'll stick with the Blending brush."

Foundation brush

"This is the best brush for applying foundation that I have ever used"

Marsha W. (5/5)

I like to use for concealer.

"I liked the way this brush for concealer better than foundation. When I apply foundation I prefer the blending/contouring brush. Customer Service was wonderful when I called about my concerns."

Chelsea W. (3/5)

Worst foundation brush ever

"I have purchased this brush 2x and had it replaced by the spa I purchased it from once. So obviously I like Jane Iredale products and wanted to like this brush. The problem is the bristles constantly come out while you are applying your makeup. It’s horrible. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong but I don’t over-clean my brushes or treat them in a way to cause this but I’m always left with stray brush bristles to pick off my face after finishing my makeup. Not a good look and so frustrating."

"nice brush for foundation"

Tasha O. (5/5)

Works Well

"Nice quality. Easy to clean. Applies liquid foundation nicely and works well with under painting."

Mariah (4/5)

Well-designed tool

"I love using this brush every day for applying foundation. The reason I am rating it 4 instead of 5 is because the brush had an unpleasant odor upon opening up the package. I let it air out a day but the smell remained. I used brush cleaner and lots of water. In 2 days the smell was gone."

Q&A

What are the measurements of this brush? How long is it? How wide is the head? etc
The Foundation Brush is 6 1/2 inches long. The brush head is an inch long and 3/4 inches wide. We hope this helps!
I’m finally getting the hang of applying liquid minerals. I’m wondering about the best way to care for the foundation brush after each use. Should I just wipe clean, rinse with water, wash with brush shampoo/brush cleaner?
We're glad you asked! We recommend to wash your Foundation Brush with a mild shampoo and conditioner that's free of wax-coating agents, chemical dyes and strong perfumes. This will help to maintain the integrity, structure and softness of your brush. We suggest to rinse the brush in warm water until all residue has been removed and then to lay your brush flat to dry. It is suggested to clean your brush every two weeks, or more frequently if you see fit!
What brush is better for applying bb cream and foundation?
We recommend the Foundation Brush for application of our Glow Time BB Cream! You may also enjoy the Blending/Contouring Brush for blending your BB Cream and foundation.

Hello, Is there a difference between the rose gold and the graphite? It looks like the graphite might be a little bigger, but I can't tell for sure. Is one better for use with the BB cream?
The rose gold vegan bristled Foundation Brush and the graphite natural haired Foundation Brush will apply Glow Time BB Cream equally well! The natural haired Foundation Brush does have a slightly larger head.
How often do you recommend brushes be washed?
We're so glad you asked! We recommend to wash your brushes about every two weeks.
