Cameo Angled Foundation Brush Review

I got this brush in one of the original BR beauty boxes. It’s definitely not an item I would purchase myself. I wear usually BB cream or tinted moisturiser so I prefer to use my fingers as I think it applied better that way. The one time I did use this for foundation, I found it made the foundation streaky which meant it actually took me longer to apply. What I do use this for is for applying face masks and it’s brilliant for that - especially for chunky face masks like Lush do. No more mess! It rinses out easily and dries quickly. I’ll definitely keep using it for that purpose.

like many others i got this brush in a BBBE and i was excited. the pink packaging really got to my girly heart and it was opened immediately. the first thing i did was rub the soft bristles all over my face, and the second thing i did was rub the bristles all over the cats face. the third thing i did was wash it so i could use it forreal.

i feel like the angle of the brush does nothing to help this make foundation look nice. no matter how many times i swirled and twirled i could still see streaks and it just looked really unfortunate. it didnt blend anything into my skin it just pushed it around.

i would have loved to have used this brush and fallen in love but i didnt. it cant replace the love i have for a damp sponge and thats okay. the brush hasnt gone to waste though, its great during arts and crafts time!

I picked this brush up from the Warehouse. I’m always on the look out for a good brush . Over the years I’ve switched from Brush to blender but always seem to revert back to my brush .

The handle of this brush is a grey matte plastic. Feels quite sturdy . Bristles on this brush feel compact. I did notice a bit of shredding on the bristles when I washed it . Application wise it feels soft on touch . Doesn’t seem to blend out well .

Price wise I think it could be a bit cheaper . It didn’t really work well for me . I can’t see myself repurchasing this or reccomending it either.

This brush came in a BBBE. I'm not great with brushes but I'm learning.

I've been using this for highlighting because the angling lends itself to that, and I find it very good. I have a matching one in a higher end brand and I find the two equally good. I like the fact that it is hard, as for applying highlighter it is ideal.

I wouldn't use this for foundation because I prefer to use a blender but it's a great brush for other uses. Cameo brand are very affordable and I have a number of their products I've purchased at The Warehouse.

So I can't say it does what it said it would, but it does do other things!

I normally use stippling brushes or other brushes, instead of flat foundation brushes. However, when I received this I thought I should give it a go to see how they compare.

I quickly discovered I'm not a fan of this brush.

I found the shape of the brush made application a bit tricky. Unlike my other brushes, blending is quite easy compared to this. I found it left the foundation quite streaky. The bristles aren't as soft as other brushes and I found due to this it was hard to get my foundation even looking and natural. Not the best really!

Unfortunately this isn't the best brush for me. I will stick to my Real Techniques and MAC brushes for now.

Three stars from me.

I received this in the BRBB. I was excited to try it as Im trying to branch out in my brush use for foundations, but unfortunately this one hasn't helped my confidence in this area. I find the brush is really hard on my face and doesn't blend or work my foundation over the face, making it patchy and uneven. So I still just ended up using my fingers to blend. Maybe different foundations would work differently with this brush, but I cant see myself bothering to use it again in the near future. Im not disappointed as I always enjoying trying new things and now I know this brush isn't for me.

If anyone has any tips you thing I could benefit from feel free to comment :)

This is a practical looking brush, nothing fancy here but oh, it does some fancy blending! I have an expensive branded foundation brush which just sits about in my make up drawer as it just does not do as good a job as using my fingers. Needless to say, I did not hold much hope for this brush. I broke it out recently when doing my make up for a glamorous work function. I was pleasantly surprised by the ease of use and the polished look it produced. I now use it every morning to apply my foundation. I find that it is so much easier to use the brush than applying foundation by hand. It is quicker and the end result is by far superior, sporting a smooth and blended appearance. Furthermore it does not shed any hairs which is a problem I experienced with the more expensive brushes. The tips offered with the brush is a nice touch. The brush feels smooth and luxurious on the skin. Thank you BR for including this brush in the latest beauty box. This is the reason I love this site, I have tried something I never would have and the results have been outstanding.

Like most of us, this was something I received in the latest beauty box. I have to admit, this is not something I would have picked up for myself, so it’s nice that I was able to try it this way.

The design of this brush is really simple, with a frosted metallic finish on the plastic handle, and has an angled flat brush on the end. The bristles of the brush are really soft which is a great positive, but I'm personally not a fan of this brush style (but each to their own).

This brush is used to apply foundation, but I just feel the angled edge doesn’t really do anything, but I'm sure there is some reason for it being there. I find when I use this with foundation, the brush almost mattes together instead of being able to buff the foundation evenly into my skin. It also seems to absorb a lot of product, and need washing every time I use it which is something I am not into because washing my brushes once a week is more than enough for me.

Even after all of this, I would have still used this brush for foundation if the results were good. Except, the results are not good. My skin doesn't look airbrushed or perfect; instead it looks streaky and terrible.

I'll try to use this brush as a mask brush, but I already have enough of those as well. Hopefully I can find someone who will want this, or it might just end up in the bin.

I used to use a flat liquid foundation brush but never really liked the way it applied.. so was trying to get away from flat brushes. I bought a stippling brush for my foundation and this worked alot better. good at blending and layering...however the bristles came out and the worst part was that they were bright pink. So when I got this angled brush in the September beauty box I was a bit weary to try it out because of my previous experience with flat brushes. I tried it and it was amazing! love that the angle makes it easier to apply around eyes and nose... works like a dream!

Just still finding it a little hard to blend the foundation nicely in my hair line and chin, which is where I found the Stippling brush amazing.

The quality of the brush looks pretty good for the price range so if Cameo ever made a stippling brush I will definitely try it out.

Would go out and purchase other Cameo brushes.

Thie bristles don't fall out when using it, so that's good. I find though that actual brush bit is too small, so it takes a while to actually apply your foundation and get a streak free finish (maybe I'm using it wrong?) It's ok for $10, but definitely not something I would go out and purchase. I also find that the bristles feel quite hard on my skin, which i don't like. I love my beauty blender, so this brush has not converted me to use brushes. I'll keep persevering and see if my opinion changes. If anyone can give me tips on how to use it, that would be great :)
