Your Eyeliner Troubles Are Over

If you’re not using a flat definer brush, maybe you should.  Have you ever struggled with smudgy eye liner pencils? Do you find angled makeup brushes difficult to control, getting eye liner product where you don’t want it because of the shape? These are frustrations that many makeup users share. Even the industry pros don’t often rely on pencils to get a sharp eye liner look and angled brushes can often take a lot of practice to use properly.

One great solution is a flat definer brush which lets you place eye liner product very precisely where you want it. If you’re just learning how to use gel or cream eye liners, this is an essential tool for your makeup kit. Our pro Flat Definer is the easy way to get those super-defined looks with ease. Here’s what you need to know about this go-to tool:

What is a Flat Definer Brush?

The pro Flat Definer Brush is a square, thin brush head with very short, precision bristles. This brush can be used with powders, creams, and gels, and is primarily for applying and smudging eye liner or carving very specific shapes on eyebrows and liner wings.  It is made with synthetic fibers, a solid wood handle, and a double-crimped copper ferrule.

Why Use a Flat Definer Brush

The biggest reason to use a flat definer brush rather than an angle brush is that it allows you to carefully deposit pigment only exactly where you want it. The sharp edge lets you create a precise eyebrow or winged eyeliner shape and you can easily line the upper and lower lash lines in either thin, subtle lines, or smudged, smoky lines. You can also use this brush to carve the shape of the outer arch of the eyebrow with concealer or to fill in eyebrows themselves with eyebrow powder.

What Should You Look for in an Eye Liner Brush?

Here are some of the characteristics that make the pro Flat Definer Brush an ideal tool for your makeup kit:

Synthetic fibers are easy to keep sanitized which means that you can avoid irritation, breakouts, and infections from bacteria build up.

The solid wood handle gives you control and weight so that you don’t need much pressure to pack on lots of color.

The short, dense bristles pick up plenty of color and doesn’t soak it up, so you waste less product.

The thin shape of this brush lets you control the width of your liner, so you can get as thin or as thick a shape as you like.

The wider square shape of this brush gives you more coverage than the typical small liner brush so you can save time.

The quality construction of this brush means that you don’t have to worry about shedding fibers causing streaky messes on your face.

With so many benefits for one brush, it’s easy to see why this is a go-to for anyone who loves to experiment with unique liner looks.

How to Use the pro Flat Definer

Using this brush may take a little practice if you’re used to pencils or slanted brushes, but many makeup users actually find this one easier after their first time. Here’s how to line your upper lash line:

1. Dip the brush into your product and tap off any excess.
2. Starting at the outer edge of your lash line, press the brush onto your lid wiggling the bristles back and forth. Then lift, move the brush towards the inner corner, and repeat.
3. Do this as closely to the lash line as possible until you’ve covered the area.
4. If you want to create a winged look, carefully draw the wing with the pointed edge of the brush. Many pros use a guide such as tape that is applied from the corner of the eyelid to the tip of the brow to create a faux lash line to define.

This brush is also great for applying brow products. The short, square shape makes it easy to carve out the shape of your brow with realistic-looking strokes. You can also use this brush with cake liner, something that many of our customers say is their favorite thing about the pro Flat Definer.

Caring for the pro Flat Definer

Caring for this brush is easy. About once a week, it needs to be sanitized to keep it free of bacteria. This process takes only a few moments. Here’s what you need to know:

• Being careful to not let water get on the handle or the ferrule, hold the brush upside down under running water. Rinse the bristles till the water runs clear and squeeze out the excess water.
• Put a small drop of mild hand soap plus olive oil into your palm and still holding the brush upside down, massage the bristles into this cleaning mixture.
• Then rinse the bristles till the cleanser is all gone and squeeze out the water again.
• Wipe the brush with a clean towel to get rid of any excess water. You don’t want water dripping down into the ferrule because that can cause the bristles to separate and shed.
• Let the brush air dry overnight. Either hang it upside down or lay it on a counter with the bristles hanging off the end so that they dry in the proper shape.

That’s all you need to do to keep your pro Flat Definer in excellent condition.
