FB1 Brush

The MAKEUP BY MARIO FB1 Brush is an angled kabuki — a short, slanted, very dense head made for face and body rather than for small detail work. The slant lets the head sit flush against a cheek, a collarbone or a shoulder instead of catching on one edge, and the handle is shaped to be held in the palm rather than pinched between fingers.

What it actually does

• Buffs without leaving stripes. MAKEUP BY MARIO builds the head from tightly bunched fibres so the bristles follow the contours of face and body, which is how the brand says it blends out streaks as you buff.
• Lands at medium coverage. The brand rates the finished result as medium and blended — so it is a brush for evening out a base, not for pressing pigment on at full strength.
• Takes cream or powder. It is positioned for both formula types, which makes it the one brush you can keep using when you switch from a cream base to a powder one.
• Scaled for body, not just face. The large angled head covers legs, arms and chest far faster than a standard face brush, which matters if you use body makeup or self-tan products.
• Vegan fibres, no shedding. MAKEUP BY MARIO states the brush is cruelty free, built with synthetic vegan bristles, simple to wash, and that it holds its hairs while you work.

How to use

1. Hold it in your palm. The handle is designed to be gripped, not held like a pen — that grip is what gives you the pressure to buff.
2. Work in small circles. Keep the angled face of the head flat against the skin so the whole surface is doing the blending.
3. Build up gradually. With a dense head it is easier to add a second pass than to lift product off.
4. For body, go in long sweeps. Circles on arms and legs can look patchy; follow the limb instead.
5. Wash it regularly. Synthetic fibres rinse clean with brush shampoo — reshape the slant while damp and dry it flat.

Questions

Is it for foundation, bronzer or body?

All three. MAKEUP BY MARIO positions it as a face and body brush that handles cream and powder alike, so it moves between a liquid base, a powder bronzer and body product without needing a second tool.

Will it shed into my makeup?

The brand's claim is that it stays intact while you buff and blend. It is also described as easy to clean, which helps — most shedding starts with brushes that get soaked and twisted rather than washed gently.

Is it vegan?

Yes — the bristles are synthetic vegan fibres, and MAKEUP BY MARIO states the brush is cruelty free.
