This comparison of the brushes was so helpful! Love how you listed the brush number! I can’t remember them all so I like that you kept the text on screen!
I love your comment. I can’t emphasize enough how important it is when the items or ingredients “stay” on the screen. I’ve suggested that to some influencers but to no avail. I have to give a shout out to @Aliceintherabbithole for leaving her ingredients on the screen longer than most.
This has been so helpful. Thank you very much for explaining how you use your BK Beauty (and other) brushes. I, like you, have a smaller face and have now definitely decided to buy the smaller BK brushes, as I had thought, like you, they would fit better on my face. Funnily enough I also use the Beauty Pie concealer brush rather than the other one, which I use in other ways. Thank you for your expertise and clear explanations. Onwards and upwards!😊
I love the 106 for so many things - foundation, cream bronzer, cream and liquid blush, glowy primer. Until I can buy a second I have the ELF ultimate blending brush which does a similar enough job to have when the 106 is dirty or I need similar brush for different products on same day application.
I loved this video! It was so informative and detailed! You didn't leave any part to wonder about or over think. You can buy a million brushes, but if you don't know where to use them or how they work best, your still going to end up with a mess! So, this really helped define what brush, where to use it and how much pressure you use to get the perfect look.
I'm sure you thought about everything you explained a million times in your head, lol! I know, because at our age, you just do that. You want your message to come off clear and to the point.
A really smart video for anyone whoever held a certain brush and asked "What do I do with this?" LOL. I bought a set of 50 natural brushes, some are repeats so you have extras, and I would frequently wonder what to do with a certain brush. You answered all my questions. Thank you very much, from a lady who quit wearing makeup for 20 years, and is now playing the game again!!!
I’m so glad it was helpful. I always try to think about someone who has no idea how to use it. Thanks for your encouragement Jill!
My favorite brush by far is the 106. I use it for both powder or liquid foundation as well as blending out contour and cream blush. I also find the 204 smudge brush for the eyes to be extremely useful to smudge out eyeliner so you don’t have harsh lines. Btw, you did a great job on your makeup!!
I just discovered your channel. You had me at “I have arthritis”. I am in my ‘60’s but continue to enjoy makeup and beauty. Your content is extremely relevant to me. And you are also organized, to the point and clear in your delivery . Thank you!
This was very good Bobbie. I hope Angie and Lisa see this, cause you did a great job explaining/demonstrating. It's nice their sold separately. It does make a difference, size wise regarding a small face/eyes. Thank you👍
Thanks Sharon! It was really fun to do and I agree, the smaller brushes make a world of difference.
This was a great video Bobbie ! I love makeup but I honestly didn’t know the purpose of so many different sizes and shapes ! Now I do ! Thanks you for teaching me ! 😃
Makeup brushes have always mystified me.
This is the best video I have seen which explains and demonstrates brushes. Finally I have a tutorial to follow - so thorough!
I now see that my brushes are a long way from ideal.
Thank you❣️
You are soo right about the A506. It was my first purchase & I was disappointed for the same reasons you were! Now I am holding off buying any unless I see someone else give me a credible review... & you did that for me. This was an awesome video. I do believe in Lisa, just that brush needed more bristles and needed to be slightly stiffer for the concealer application. Thanks. I now have a few of the bk beauty brushes on my wish list.
Loved this video an boy did I need it I have a hard time with brushes and now I feel better equipped to pick the right ones for my needs, thanks Bobbi 🌟
My favorite BK Beauty brush is definitely the 106. It’s the only brush I take when traveling…does my stick foundation, stick bronzer and stick or cream blush. Love it so much, I have two. I do like the Angie Hot and Flashy concealer brush the most of all the concealer brushes I’ve tried. Thanks for sharing your favorites.
I would say the 106 is my favorite as well.
Love this video! It was so helpful as to help me decide what brushes I want to buy. I love all of the BK Beauty brushes that I currently have.I love the 101 and my favorite is 109. Thanks for this info!
Thanks for the video, the bkbeauty brushes, they really are beautiful and their different shapes are out of the ordinary of other brushes. I really wish I could have some, but unfortunately the price is a little bit expensive.
Also thank you so much for all your videos, they have served me so much to understand and make up my aunt and my mother. 🥰😃
This video was very helpful. I'm so glad I found you!! It's nice to hear how others are using the brushes. When I apply eyeshadow and want to remove the excess powder after dipping into the shadow, I always (gently) tap the brush head (not the side of the brush) onto the back of my hand (the left hand if you're applying with your right hand). When I do this, the excess powder will be left on the top of my hand. As I'm applying the shadow to my eyes, and I need more shadow, I'll just keep dipping back into the powder left on the top of my hand until it's gone. Repeat as needed! Think of the top of your hand as an artist's palette! This way you don't waste any eyeshadow, and it doesn't end up floating around in the air (and into your lungs!).
THIS! I needed this video.
This was really helpful as I’m looking at a couple brushes I want to pick up in the Black Friday sale. Thanks!
I’ve just found your channel as looking to purchase some BK beauty brushes.
I have to say that although I’m not in your age group, I really enjoyed your video!
So refreshing and different. You deliver your content in a fresh, realistic manner.
Your bubbly personality shines through too, no fakeness, just facts about THE brushes! A very informative video,
So thank you!
Keep it real keep it bubbly! Love your enthusiasm.
I’ve now subscribed to your channel 👍🥳Greetings from the UK 🇬🇧 👋
That is so kind to tell me! Thank you so much! I means a lot!
@ 😀👍
Great video Bobbie ! I have the same problem with the Angie concealer brush, being that my eyes are so small. I went back to applying with my ring finger, and working it in well. I’ve been using the Angie blush brush, and it works well, but always end up going too far down with it, again because my face is small, so I’m going to use it for my powder foundation. I love all the BK brushes ! I also have some rephr brushes, but I find myself reaching for the BK way more. Have a nice weekend ! ☺️💜☺️
Have you tried the BK beauty for small/ hooded eyes?
Here's the other video I have done about BK Beauty brushes: th-cam.com/video/K86KtFptL7U/w-d-xo.html
So glad to see this!!👏🏻🎉❤️ I've been wanting to get some, but I wasn't sure which ones... as I certainly don't need them all. 💓💓💓 so, I'm taking notes!!🥰💄💋👑💎
I really like Lisa J. Her products are lovely. I bought the Angie Hot & Flashy set and I love it.
Bobbie! Thank you for the amazing review and video ❤!
You are so welcome! You have created an amazing brand!
I love BK Beauty brushes. Thank you for this video and demonstrating them.
My BK Beauty are a favorite of mine and Rephr.
Oh my gosh! I love the BK Beauty brushes, and I have the A506. But I also have the Beauty Pie one, and I do love it more too
Superb video - Thank you so much!
I really enjoyed you help and your comments.
Best wishes,
Lilliput
I’m pretty new here and I am loving getting to know you! This video was so helpful. I appreciate the “how to” as well as your honest reviews!! Thanks so much!
Hi Debbie and welcome! I'm so glad this has been helpful!!!
Excellent video explanation! I have been wondering about the BK brushes and now know which ones to purchase, thanks Bobbie!
I’m so glad it was helpful.
Thank you so much for your demonstration, you are a genius with brushes and how to use them.
I use the big 105 for powder foundation
New subscriber. This was a great video. I agree with you about these brushes. While I don’t have them all, I have the 101, which I like very much, and also the 106, which is HG for me. It is so fantastic! I think I need another one. I like it better than the 101! . I have the Hot and Flashy concealer brush, and I agree with what you said about it. I like it, ok, but like my other concealer brushes better. So, I’ll use it the way you did, and see how it goes. I just received the 107, and will try this one for bronzer and blush.
This was extremely helpful!! Thank you so much!
Hi Bobbie! I have several BK Beauty brushes and love the majority of them. I use the 109 for powder blush as well as cream blush, it allows me to control where I place the blush. I’m considering purchasing a second to use for bronzer. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!🌺
I think that is what makes them so good. You have control.
Wow, what a good detail video, I’m so happy about that. I’m a brush collector and I just love these one. What brush would you take to put your highlighter ? I just need highlighter in my life, lollll. Thank you so much, love your chanel. 😊
Thank you so much. A very easy tutorial to follow.I love my BK brushes.
Sorry I'm watching this video so late and thank you for the helpful info. I do want to say that BK Beauty's customer service is second to none! (And the brushes are nice, too. ha ha.)
I loved your content. Thank you for the tutorial. I learned so much!
Just found your channel … you are so gorgeous and absolutely thoughtful brilliant and HONEST. I’m a new sub and look forward to exploring more of your videos ❤️
You are so kind, thank you and welcome!
I so agree with you on the A506…it’s too big for under eyes for me too. I got one from Amazon similar to the one you have from Beauty Pie. I actually use the A506 for highlighter!
I bought a set of brushes at Walmart don't even remember the name of them. My question is does the more expensive ones really make a difference?
Yes!!!! ABSOLUTELY!!!❤❤❤
So very helpful thank you so much Bobbie I really appreciate it ! I think I've got 9 in my cart!
Very nicely explained,THANK YOU
Love it thank you! Have you tried the new trio? I’m also wondering what the differences between the 109 and the 112? Looking for fewer brushes that can do multiple things.
They are completely different. I use 109 for cream and 112 for powder. I am testing out the new trio now. So far I’m in love with 116 and and I wish I had another one. Jury’s out for the other two.
What a great video for ladies over 50. new subbie. Great demo on how to use. Your skin looks amazing. Thanks for sharing.
I always use a separate brush to buff and pickup excess.
Great ideas to save money, thank you so much for this video…💜
Have a fantastic weekend
I literally have over 100 makeup brushes - the ones I reach for most are a set of 18, I got on Amazon for $12. Great brushes and they don’t shed. I no longer waste money on overpriced brushes. I used to love my Artis brushes! The BK Angie concealer brush - flower beauty has one identical for $9 and it was out long before the BK. I have found my foundation looks best when I use my fingers and finish it off with the Stans out sponge. That sponge is amazing.
@@patti9339
Wow, that’s amazing, I think I’m jello☺️☺️☺️
@@dianehiltz1193 goodness don’t be. I’d have much rather put that money in my retirement! I would try anything I thought was going to give me a better finish. Truly, I use my fingers the most. Even my eyeshadow - I don’t buy palettes anymore. I use cream shadows because they are great for a one and done look. I use a small brush to swipe it on, but I use my fingers to smooth it out. I like the no make-up look. I can’t stand bright or bold eyeshadow with heavy black eyeliner and mascara. Not a good look on anybody IMO.
@@patti9339 Hahaha, the no makeup, makeup look is a nice one, I’m not into any makeup that makes me stand out, I much prefer a soft look with soft colours, browns, beiges etc…
Yes, that sponge is amazing. I wish I liked using my fingers. I also just finished filming a video using a $20 brush kit for eyes. I think it will also be very helpful.
Very thorough & helpful. I'd like to try the bk brushes one day. I use elf & w&w brushes.
I appreciate you being with us !
I’ve never tried w&w brushes. I’ll have to check them out.
Any opinion about the 202 versus the 502 for mature eyes and hooded eyes? Particularly for people who don’t know how to do eyeshadow :-)
A502 all the way!!! I have very hooded eyes so smaller is better for me. It also blends like a dream. I will use the 202 sometimes if I'm blending the entire eye, but for any precision the 502 is way better. Hope that helps!
Thank you!
I am excited because I am going to start getting some bk brushes. I think they will work good for my cream face makeup.
I don’t think you will be disappointed Christine.
Great video!❤
Great video. Very informative. Thanks.
Thank you for another wonderful video, Bobbie!
You’re welcome Dawn!
Thank you so much for this video. I found it very helpful for my small face and hooded eyes.
You are welcome! Glad it was helpful!
This was very helpful!
Thank you for this great video/tutorial. Can I bother you for the eyeshadow palette you have used in this video? You look stunning and hoping it will do the same for me...!
Hi greatest review ever thank you so much. Why don't you use loose powder under the eye? What do you use please abd why
Thank you so much Daria. I get better control of placement with pressed powder.
Do you have an opinion about 112 vs 109? I use mainly cream products. A make up artist I follow swears by the 112 for all products - your opinion?
I saw your other reply! Thank you.
Love your comments thanks
What a great video ❤
you’re beautiful. I like your blue eyes and the way how you to talk(explain). I will follow as you did ❤
Thank you for this video!
Thank you ! Learned alot!
Hi Bobbi. Thanks for this video. I love makeup brushes and watching videos on how people use them. I got the sigma switch for Christmas and love it. How do you clean the Switch? I can’t get between the bristles! Your advice please?
I use dish soap with a toothbrush.
For some reason, powder doesn’t work for me. It settles in my lines and makes my skin look dry. Your skin always looks good with it. Is your skin oily?
I have very dry skin in the winter and mildly in the summer. I use powder sparingly and make sure my skin is very moisturized beforehand.
Beautiful look.
Where to buy in Australia?
Your makeup looks good today.
Have you tried Beauty Pie’s makeup brush (instead of BK Beauty 101?) can you tell me how often you clean that brush too? I love your videos but don’t have a lot to spend so love your drug store videos. Thank you
I have not tried that brush, but I have heard their other ones are good. I have only used the concealer one from them. It's amazing!
Can I use these brushes with cream makeup?
I wouldn't recommend all of them for cream, but here's the ones that I think would be great: #101, 106, 110, 109, 207, 204, 203, 210
Where can I order those makeup brushes?
They are all linked in the description to f this video but here’s a link to all I spoke about: docs.google.com/document/u/0/d/1ZcnPdxdghiMPX1ybjddcs9fhF6eAyvzQuF7Ho2_sUW0/mobilebasic
I’m 70 yrs old and don’t really know much about brushes and makeup applications, so thank you, maybe too late now to invest on brushes 😂
Never too late for anything! So impressive that you are on TH-cam! 💞👍
It’s never too late ! I’m 75 now and I wear makeup so I need brushes. Have fun! 😊
You look beautiful and you are funny 😄
The one thing that turns me off from buying BK brushes (other than the price) is watching the ladies of TH-cam follow Lisa J's warning about not tapping the excess powder off the brushes using a hard surface. I feel if the brushes are well made, they should stand up to tapping off on whatever surface I choose. I use the edge of my wastebasket, to contain and keep some of the powder excess off every surface in my bathroom. Now, the compacts might crack when you tap on them, but that's a potential problem with any product that comes in a cheap polystyrene plastic case. On another note, Jen Phelps has just launched her own 5 brush set in collaboration with Doll 10; the set is made with smaller brush heads and is specifically designed for use with smaller facial features and smaller, deep-set, hooded eyes. My two sets just arrived yesterday and I'll give one set a good workout today. The other set is a gift for a friend whose birthday is next week, and she always complains about brushes being too big for her dainty features. Each set cost $49.00, and my order of two sets came with a couple of neat little gifts, including a sample of their very pricey mascara that has the exact kind of brush applicator I always look for. So thanks for this very timely video, Bobbie!
Just fyi, I bought that foundation brush. I used it about 4 times. I cleaned it once with baby shampoo and once with cinema secrets. The ENTIRE head of bristles fell completely out of the base. I have absolutely never seen anything like it before in my life!
