Different bristles have different properties. It is vital to select the correct type of hair for the application of cosmetics, depending on the desired effect. The type of hair fiber selected generally determines the overall value of your brush.

Brush hair can be divided into two kinds: natural animal hair and synthetic fiber. There are two main characteristics that distinguish one hair from another, as well as natural hair from synthetic fibers.

This is the most commonly used natural animal hair, which combines softness and strength. Mainly used for powder brush, blush brush, contour brush, highlighting brush, eyeshadow brush, blending brush and fan brush.
