Why We Love It
A flat top stippling brush built for powder. The dense, soft white bristles sit flat against the skin so finishing powder, bronzer and face powder go on in a thin even layer instead of dragging the concealer and foundation underneath. If you have been pressing powder on with a sponge and losing your base every time, this is the brush that fixes it.

Common questions
What is a stippling brush used for?
A stippling brush applies powder and cream products in light layers rather than one heavy pass. The flat, densely packed head holds product across the whole surface, so you build coverage gradually instead of depositing it all in one spot. It is the brush to reach for when you want a natural finish and full control over how much product ends up on the skin.
How do you use a flat top stippling brush?
Load the brush with powder and tap off the excess. Apply in small circular motions so the bristles rotate against the skin rather than splaying flat. That rotation is what keeps the layer even and stops the brush lifting the foundation underneath. Build in thin passes and stop when you like the coverage.
What is the difference between a stippling brush and a regular powder brush?
A regular powder brush is loose and domed, so it sweeps product across a wide area with a soft, diffused finish. A stippling brush is flat and dense, so it presses product into one place with more control and more coverage. Use a powder brush to set the whole face and a stippling brush where you want the coverage to hold.
Will a stippling brush disturb the foundation underneath?
Not if you use the circular motion. The bristles on this brush are soft enough that they rotate over cream and liquid layers rather than dragging them. Pressing straight down and lifting is what moves foundation around. Keep the brush moving in small circles and the base underneath stays where you put it.
Is this stipple makeup brush good for sensitive skin?
The bristles are soft and the flat head spreads pressure across a wide surface, so there is less scrubbing against the skin than with a small dense brush. Kinetics products are made with hypoallergenic ingredients and this brush is designed to work with them. If your skin reacts easily, wash the brush regularly, since a clean brush matters more than a soft one.
How do you clean a stippling brush?
Wash it with mild shampoo and warm water, reshape the head with your fingers, and lay it flat to air dry. Do not stand it bristles-up to dry, because water runs into the ferrule and loosens the glue over time. A dense flat top brush holds more product than it looks like it does, so wash it more often than your loose brushes.
