what is the best brush to use for eyeshadow application to get the most eyeshadow applied. That leaves the most pigment on the eye. Thanks

I think it depends....I have several brushes that I can't do without.

For all over color, I like the Slope brush. I usually use a white shade all over, this covers a large area and I like the angle.

For the crease, I like the Wet/Dry brush.

For a brow highlighter, I use the Angle blender.

I've also been using the Fiber Optic brush more & more often. It deposits a small amount of shadow at a time, but I love to layer with it. I think this brush really shows the sparkle in many of the shades better than regular brushes.

I use other brushes - flat liner for cream shadows, eye crease for a secondary crease color, ultra thin liner for lining, and brow definer for brows.

I realize that probably didn't help you any. I don't think I could pick just one or two brushes if I had to!

I have a taklon brush that is very similar to the slope brush, and it is fantastic. However, I also use an angled eyeliner (like in the travel set) and a smudge brush every time I put on eyeshadow. If I was going to use just one brush, it would probably be something like the wet/dry shadow brush, because it can be used a few different ways. Application is more precise with the right brush for the job, though. Smile

On rereading, I see you want something that leaves the most product on the eye- do you mean in one stroke? I guess then I'd recommend the slope brush.


custom mix of: voile/glissade 1YL-2YL plus a bit of Lilas Coquille. Green eyes, Dark purple/brown/black hair, freckles. Current faves: Bella, Sinisterrouge, and Luminary!

yeah, it really depends. i usually use a brush very similar to the large blender when applying a base color.

I like the wet/dry brush too for base color. I like the Ultra Posh for highlight and Ultra Cute for the crease.

If I had to make do with just one of my eyeshadow brushes, it would be the wet/dry brush. I can do everything but my eyeliner with that baby. It's very versatile.
