#20 Allover Eyeshadow Brush

NARS #20 Allover Eyeshadow Brush is the wide, flat paddle brush you reach for first when you start an eye look. Its job is laying colour across the whole lid in one controlled motion, and the synthetic head handles both powder shadow and cream formulas.

What it actually does

• Covers the whole lid in one pass. The large paddle shape is made for putting colour down across the eyelid rather than working small areas.
• Sheer or solid, your call. NARS says it can lay a light wash of colour and is equally built for high-impact application.
• Handles cream and powder. It works with either formula, so one brush covers a cream base and the shadow over it.
• Medium coverage, synthetic bristles. NARS classes the brush as powder formulation with medium coverage and synthetic bristle type.
• Easy to keep clean, kind to sensitive skin. The fibres are durable, synthetic and hypoallergenic, which makes washing simple and suits people whose eyes react easily.

How to use

1. Press the flat side of the brush into your shadow and tap off the excess.
2. Sweep it across the lid from the inner corner outward, keeping the brush flat for an even layer.
3. Press harder for a solid, pigmented block of colour; keep the touch light for a sheer wash.

Cleaning it

1. Put a small amount of gentle soap or brush shampoo onto the bristles.
2. Rinse under water until the water comes away clear.
3. Try not to wet the handle — water loosens the ferrule over time.
4. Reshape the fibres with your fingers, then dry it flat or hanging bristles-down.

Questions

Is this a blending brush?

No — this one places colour. It is a large flat paddle for covering the lid. Blending into the crease calls for a tapered, fluffy head instead.

Can I use it with cream shadow?

Yes. NARS states it is built for high-impact use with either cream or powder formulas, which is a benefit of the synthetic fibres — they do not soak up product the way natural hair does.

How should I wash it?

Gentle soap or brush shampoo, rinse until the water runs clean, keep the handle dry, reshape the bristles, and dry it flat or upside down.

How long does delivery take?

Delivery takes 3 to 21 working days, depending on availability. Brushes held in stock go out quickly; anything sourced for you takes longer.

Payment and returns?

Credit card, debit card, Instapay and mobile wallets — no cash on delivery. Returns cover defective, damaged or expired items only, reported within 1 day of delivery; refunds go back to the original payment method within 15–30 days.
