FAQs
What types of products can I use with this brush?
This brush is ideal for liquid and cream complexion products, including foundations like Hourglass Ambient Soft Glow Foundation, and cream blush or highlighting sticks such as Vanish Blush Stick or Vanish Flash Highlighting Stick.
Is the Hourglass Soft Glow Foundation Brush cruelty-free and vegan?
Yes, this brush is proudly both vegan and cruelty-free, utilizing unique vegan fiber technology instead of animal hair.
How do I clean my brush?
To clean, gently wash the bristles with mild soap and warm water. After rinsing thoroughly, reshape the bristles and lay the brush flat on a clean towel to air dry completely.
Can I use this brush for powder foundation or powder blush?
While versatile, this brush is specifically designed and optimized for liquid and cream formulations. For powder products, a brush designed for powders may offer better performance.
How can I achieve higher coverage with my foundation using this brush?
For increased coverage, use a stippling motion (gently dabbing or tapping the brush) over the areas where you desire more opacity. Build coverage in thin layers for the best result.
What makes the laser-cut design unique?
The unique laser-cut design provides maximum control and precision during application, allowing for seamless blending and intricate work, mimicking the delicate touch of fingertips.
Does this brush enhance certain Hourglass products?
Yes, it is specially developed to enhance the performance of the Hourglass Ambient Soft Glow Foundation, but it also works exceptionally well with other Hourglass liquid and cream complexion products.
Troubleshooting
Foundation appears streaky or uneven.
Ensure you are using gentle, circular, or sweeping motions to blend. Buff the product into the skin, avoiding harsh lines. For heavier products, try stippling.
Not achieving enough coverage with foundation.
For added coverage, apply foundation using stippling (dabbing/tapping) motions over areas that need more opacity. Build up coverage gradually rather than applying a large amount at once.
Brush feels stiff or has product buildup.
The brush needs cleaning. Follow the cleaning instructions: gently wash bristles with mild soap and warm water, then lay flat to dry completely.
Color formulas (blush/highlighter) aren't blending smoothly.
When using with color sticks, load the product onto the brush first, then press the brush into the cheeks or desired area before gently blending. This helps distribute the product evenly.
Brush bristles are shedding or coming loose.
Ensure you are cleaning the brush gently and laying it flat to dry. Standing it upright while wet can cause water to weaken the ferrule's glue over time. If the issue persists, contact customer support.

Care Instructions
Maintaining the cleanliness of your brush is crucial for hygiene, optimal performance, and extending its lifespan. Follow these steps regularly:
- Gentle Cleaning: Gently clean the bristles using a mild soap (such as a gentle face cleanser or brush-specific soap) and warm water. Avoid harsh detergents.
- Rinse Thoroughly: Rinse the bristles under warm running water, ensuring all soap residue is removed. Gently squeeze out excess water.
- Reshape Bristles: Gently reshape the bristles to their original form.
- Lay Flat to Dry: Lay the brush flat on a clean towel or drying rack. Avoid standing it upright, as water can seep into the ferrule (the metal part), loosening the glue over time. Allow it to air dry completely before next use.
