AI picks by need
For angled brush for gel wings and tightlining
MAC Small Angle Brush (line)
A dense, small angled synthetic edge can be pressed into the lash line or used to stamp and drag a wing.
Not for: People who want the finest possible hand-drawn line.
What the AI looks for in Eyeliner Brushes
- Tip shape
- Pointed fine tip for drawing lines; angled or flat edge for tightlining and stamping wings. The shape decides which technique the brush suits.
- Bristle density and snap
- Densely packed synthetic bristles that come to a single point and don't splay when loaded with gel. Splayed tips leave ragged, uneven edges.
- Fiber type
- Synthetic for gel, cream and liquid liners. Natural hair soaks up product and loses its edge.
- Handle length
- A handle long enough to rest your hand for a steady line. Short travel handles make it harder to draw a steady line.
Brands that matter
- Bobbi Brown: Gel liner specialist with fine liner brushes.
- MAC: Professional angled and fine liner brushes.
- Sigma Beauty: Synthetic eye brushes in several liner shapes.
What to avoid
- Liner brushes with loose bristles at the tip.
- Leaving gel liner to dry in the brush. Clean it right after use or the tip hardens and splits.
