Product FAQ+

will this work on hooded eyes?

this is one of the most frequently cited reasons community members purchase brush 13. roughly 55% specifically mention hooded, deep set, or small eyes. the compact head fits into the crease without depositing shadow across the entire lid, giving you control over placement and blending that larger brushes cannot match.

can i use brush 13 for my whole eye look or just detail work?

about 70% of community members use it primarily for detail and crease work, pairing it with a larger brush like brush 15 or 01 for broader blending. however, some with very small eyes report using it as their only eyeshadow brush for simple one-and-done looks. it both packs on color and blends edges, so it can handle multiple steps if your lid space is limited.

what is the difference between brush 13 and brush 14?

community members frequently compare the two. brush 13 is slightly smaller, denser, and has a less tapered tip than brush 14. many describe brush 13 as better for packing color precisely, while brush 14 is fluffier and better for diffusing. around 12% of community members own both and use them interchangeably depending on the look.

does it work with cream eyeshadow or just powder?

the majority of community members use brush 13 with powder eyeshadow, and that is where it performs most consistently. some have used it successfully with cream shadows and even as a concealer brush, though a few noted that cream products require a bit more effort to blend and clean afterward.

how do i keep the bristles from splaying after washing?

roughly 8% of community members mention some bristle splay after cleaning. reshaping the bristles gently while wet and allowing the brush to dry with the head pointing down or wrapped in a brush guard helps maintain the original shape. most find the brush performs well even with minor splay over time.
