We simply can’t live without these cosmetic tools
The trick to creating a flawless finish is not in the products you use but in the tools. For a kinder make-up bag opt for vegan brushes. “Synthetic brushes give great results, just as good as those made from natural hair,” explains Emma Leslie, expert at premium beauty company Escentual. “They are also hypoallergic and suitable for even the most sensitive skin types. As well as this, due to the synthetic fibres, they are less likely to harbour bacteria,” she adds. Want to try vegan make-up brushes for yourself? We’ve picked five of the best.
