AIN #S113 Small Contour Blush Brush

AIN Series – This is AINOCHI’s flagship series. Designed specifically for professional makeup artists, our AIN collection features a traditional retro style that is understated and luxurious.

We pride ourselves on selecting only the best materials. Our goat hair is particularly soft and good at catching powder, while gray squirrel hair is as soft as warm water and good at blending powder into one. Our imported ebony has a natural texture, is antibacterial and insect-proof, and exudes a pleasant woody fragrance. Nickel plated brass ferrules are clear coated and engineered.
We believe this collection is a true work of art and the perfect gift for the esteemed beauty lover.

• Extraordinarily soft and smooth gray squirrel hair with a natural taper, meaning the hair ends in a fine point. This feature allows for a more precise application of makeup, particularly for blending and creating a seamless finish. The tapered ends help in achieving a natural, airbrushed look. Squirrel hair brushes are especially well-suited for powder-based makeup products like loose powders, blushes, and eyeshadows. The fine, soft bristles allow for a light and even application of powders, giving a natural and luminous finish.
• Durable and corrosion-resistant thickened nickel-plated brass
• The makeup brushes are handmade, with plenty of bristles and a shape that fits the skin perfectly.
• Raw ebony with hot-stamped silver embossed AINOCHI logo
• Glue is individually injected into the inverted brush head, and meticulous craftsmanship ensures a strong, airtight bond, improving quality and longevity.
• 100% animal cruelty free, strictly collected from animal by-products.

Use with: Powders

- Prep Your Face: Start with a clean, moisturized face. Apply your foundation, concealer, and any other base makeup you typically use.

- Load the Brush: Dip the small contour blush brush into your preferred contour product. Gently tap off any excess product to avoid over-application.

- Contour: Use the brush to apply the contour product in the hollows of your cheeks, along the jawline, and on the sides of your nose. Use a light hand and start with a small amount of product, gradually building up for the desired effect.

- Blend and Soften: After applying the contour, use the brush to blend and soften the product, ensuring a seamless and natural finish. Blend in upward motions to lift and define your facial features.

- Assess and Adjust: Step back and assess the application in different lighting to ensure the desired contour effect. If needed, blend further or adjust the intensity by adding or blending more product.

How to clean your pro natural series:

- Bristles can trap oil, excess product, debris, and bacteria, ultimately leading to unnecessary breakouts and skin irritation. Cleaning your brush will extend the life of the bristles and help apply and blend makeup better.

- For simple daily cleaning, you can wipe it gently with a dry cleaning sponge (included when ordering), and most of the attached powder will fall off with the vibration.

- For deep cleaning at least once a month, use baby soapy water or professional detergent (complimentary).  Use a brush or your hands to gently squeeze and rub in a clockwise direction. Then blot dry with a clean towel or soft paper towel, cover the brush with a mesh (usually used for larger makeup brushes), turn it upside down (bristle side down) and let it air dry in a cool place.

- After your hair dries naturally, some fluffy bristles may appear. This is a normal phenomenon and can be restored to its original state after simple adjustments.
