    What the gurus are saying

    The angled tip earns consistent praise for delivering precision without sacrificing softness, making it work equally well for sculpting the nose, blending under-eye concealer, and smoothing touch-ups throughout the day. Gurus highlight the handmade, hand-cut construction as a mark of quality that justifies the investment. The firmness of the longer fibers lets you sculpt subtle contour where it counts most, though the consensus is that restraint matters: a little nose contour goes a long way in photos and in person.

    "I have been loving recently Nikki La Rose her collab with BK Beauty, the number 16 brush. Let me tell you why. So she has this beautiful bristle variation all up here, which just really helps with that blending. You have like much more density in the center of the brush and then as you get out to the outer edges you have this nice bristle variation. What I also like about it is that it's a little bit wider, it's wider going this way and then when you turn it it gets a little bit thinner which is amazing for people like me who need to have a little bit more precision in these tiny areas."

    "This is my concealer brush. I designed this with nose contour in mind. It's great for sculpting and shading the nose. I like to take the longer fibers of the brush and just sculpt into where the beginning of the brow is to connect it so it's not so disconnected. You can do a little scoop underneath on the very tip of the nose, which gives a little subtle lift. Less is more with contour as well, you do not want to see visible contour on your nose. There's nothing less flattering than that. But it's so surprising what a difference nose contour can make in the pictures."

    "One of my favorite brushes is the N16. It's [...] probably my favorite of the whole collection if I have to choose one. [...] The way that it's made, it really just helps to blend under your eyes, not just to even set your under eye makeup but to help smooth it, even if you're touching up later on in the day. [...] They are high quality, they are handmade, they're also hand cut. They are such good quality makeup brushes and I am guaranteeing these are going to be a great makeup brush investment for you."

    "I'm more recently thankful for this brush for blending out concealer. It's just unmatched. I don't have anything like this in my collection and I have probably a thousand brushes and that's not an exaggeration. I've never tried anything like this personally. I love it for cream contour."

    These NEW Makeup Brushes.. 😱
    "To blend out the concealer I'm going to use the N16 Brush. Oh my gosh, this looked absolutely fine but now that I'm using it, oh this is so soft. Are you kidding? Oh, this might be my favorite one so far. I love the more angular tip to this because it allows you to really get precision, but it's still super super fluffy, so it feels comfortable and looks great, but it's also super functional. Oh my, okay, this brush is absolute perfection. I thought I might like this one when I first saw it, but like this one is love at first sight. Well, love at first use I should say."
