cream shadow brush

Cream shadows reward a brush built for them, and that is what Tarte's cream shadow brush is. Soft synthetic bristles move cream formulas around the lid without leaving the streaks a finger or a stiff brush tends to drag through them.

What it actually does

• Blends cream textures smoothly. Tarte says the super-soft synthetic bristles work cream products seamlessly across the lid.
• Gives you control. The handle is shaped for grip, which matters when you are placing a cream shade exactly where you want it before it sets.
• Doubles up on the lower lash line. The head is small enough to carry shadow along the bottom of the eye for extra definition.
• Day or night. The brand pitches it as the one eye brush to reach for whatever look you are doing.
• Vegan and cruelty-free, per Tarte.

How to use

1. Tap the bristles into your cream shade — a light touch, since creams load heavily.
2. Apply straight onto the lid and blend outward before the formula sets.
3. For definition, run what is left on the brush along the lower lash line.
