Hi! I'm Leah from Refuel Spa on behalf of Expert Village. In this segment, we'll be talking about supplies needed for application. So this brush here is our large kabuki brush. This one is going to give about a medium coverage. Again, because of those long bristles and a lot of movement within this brush, it's just going to give a little bit of a sheer to medium coverage. Our next foundation brush is the super powder applicator. This is going to, again, give a very sheer wash of color. Again, just tap a little bit and apply for those people who don't want a made up look. This is our small kabuki brush. You can see with the short bristles and the dense brushes, really what you're getting is a very full coverage. In fact, full concealing coverage you can achieve with this product. We also have our shadow applicator. This again, has very short dense bristles. If you're wanting to achieve a little bit more dramatic effect, this is going to again apply a lot of pigment to the skin so you can get a fabulous vibrant coverage with your eye shadow application. We also have our angled brush. This is going to be very easy to kind of smooth out the brows and apply a little bit of pigment. It's also going to act almost as a liner smudger. You can actually dip this in a little bit of shadow and kind of run it along the eyes to give it a little bit of a liner. Next, we have our contoured application brush. Because it's contoured, makes it very easy to apply the blush. It goes right in the shape of the cheekbone so you can achieve a very natural look. Again, very dense bristles so we can get very vibrant pigment if that's what you're wanting to achieve. We also have our eye and lip applicators here. What these are going to do for us specifically is provide a very hygienic application of lipsticks. It's also going to make it very easy for the client at home to apply lipstick, especially vibrant ones and be able to get a perfect straight line. Of course, we'll always need our disposable wands. Also, disposable sponges are good to have. However, with minerals you usually don't need a sponge because you can get such fabulous coverage with our brushes. It saves a little bit on product as well. These disposable wands, of course will only be dipped once in the product. Generally, 2 for each application is just perfect. Watch the next segment, we'll be talking more on consultation with your client.
