Laura Mercier Secret Camouflage Brush

Small and detail-oriented, the Laura Mercier Secret Camouflage Brush has been created to colour the trickiest of spots. Ideal for reaching the corner of your eyes, as well as covering shadows, blemishes and scars, you’ll be able to achieve a precise coating of colour exactly where you need it. To dust makeup across your cheeks or cover sunspots, the wider part of the brush can be used for more coverage.

Product pick up and lay down: Crème will naturally adhere to synthetic fibres. For best results using any type of pressed powder, press bristles into powder to pick-up the powder. Next, press brush onto back of hand to work the powder into the brush. This will ensure powder is loaded into bristles and minimise fallout. Gently tap brush once on back of hand to shake off any excess product. Tap and press loaded bristle all over area first. After product has been placed, then blend.

Hand position (precise application): Hold brush at the centre of handle or closer to the ferrule. Pinch brush handle between thumb and middle finger. For added control, also use pointer finger with a light touch on handle, this will act more as a “guide” during application. It should feel like you’re balancing the brush.

Hand position (blend and diffuse): Hold brush with a loose grip, close to the end of handle and lightly pinch between thumb, pointer and middle finger. This will provide the most “painterly” result.
