#12 Cream Blending Brush

NARS #12 Cream Blending Brush handles two jobs most kits split between separate tools: laying concealer softly around the eye area, and working cream formulas out until the edges disappear. The head is synthetic, which is what lets it move cream products without drinking them up.

Use	Face and eye — concealer and cream textures
Coverage	Medium to full
Bristles	Synthetic, hypoallergenic
Suited to	Sensitive skin, per NARS

What it actually does

• Places concealer gently around the eyes. That is the specific task NARS designed the head for — the thinnest skin on the face, where pressure shows.
• Moves cream formulas without dragging. It is built for blending cream textures out smoothly rather than pushing them into a line.
• Works on both face and eyes. NARS lists it as multi-use, so it is not stranded in the eye section of your kit.
• Delivers medium to full coverage. The stated range means it carries enough product to cover, not just to diffuse.
• Built for sensitive skin. The brand describes the hypoallergenic fibres as a good match for reactive skin and simple to keep clean.
• Shaped around François Nars' techniques. Each brush in the line is customised to the methods he works with, according to the brand.

How to use

1. Pick up a small amount of concealer on the tip rather than loading the whole head.
2. Apply around the eye with light pressure. Let the fibres do the work; pressing hard on that area moves the product more than it blends it.
3. Blend cream products outward in short, soft strokes until no edge is visible.
4. Clean it regularly: work a little mild soap or brush cleanser through the bristles and rinse until the water comes away clear.
5. Keep the handle dry while you rinse, then reshape the head with your fingers and let it dry.

Questions

Is it only for the eye area?

No — NARS describes it as a multi-use brush for face and eyes. Concealer around the eyes is the headline use, but it is equally intended for blending cream formulas elsewhere on the face.

What are the bristles made of?

Synthetic hair. NARS calls the fibres durable and hypoallergenic, and notes they rinse clean easily.

How do I wash it without ruining it?

Use a little mild soap, or a dedicated brush cleanser, worked through the bristles. Rinse until the runoff is clear and avoid soaking the handle, then reshape the fibres by hand once rinsed.
