Evolution of Makeup Brushes<br />

One of the makeup industry’s innovators and a former MAC Cosmetics senior executive, Matthew Waitesmith, has<br />

always had a unique and forward-looking perspective on makeup and application. After retiring from MAC, Waitesmith<br />

had a vision of creating innovative makeup brushes that are easier to use, offer superior functionality, as well as an<br />

aesthetic design that you might find at any high-end designer store.<br />

The company’s debut ‘Elite Collection’ is a deconstructed approach to functionality with each part of the brush being<br />

visually separate from the others. “The profiles of this brush collection take inspiration from how I would draw a human<br />

face...with oval, linear, and circular shapes making up the various components of the facial structure.” says Waitesmith.<br />

Artís Elite Oval 6 (£40)<br />

The Oval 6 is great<br />

for applying product<br />

to the eye lid;<br />

or foundation<br />

to the face, or for<br />

contouring<br />

the cheekbone area.<br />

It applies blush<br />

beautifully to the apple<br />

of the cheek and<br />

blends it so that the<br />

application looks<br />

natural and<br />

healthy.<br />

Artís Elite Linear 3 (£28)<br />

The Linear 3 has a medium<br />

width [about 3 mm] row of<br />

fibres to help concentrate<br />

product application in a line,<br />

such as along the upper<br />

lash line or below the<br />

lower lashes. This brush<br />

applies a perfect<br />

precise line of product<br />

along the upper lash<br />

line or tucked under<br />

the lower lash line.<br />

It can also be used<br />

for special effects<br />

makeup to create<br />

medium size lines<br />

and linear shapes.<br />
