Brushes are a girl's best friend

Posted Feb 19, 2010

For whoever might aspire to the catwalk look but is missing the skills of uber make-up artist Pat McGrath:, here is your new brush-shaped beauty weapon courtesy of Dolce & Gabbana.

 

Draw your brushes ladies for this is your secret weapon for the spring! Black and gold no less so as to upstage the sleekest of special agents. Swide takes a look at those weapons of choice.

The number rule for the secret agent is to look inconspicuous at all times. Make sure not to blow your cover by faking a little rosy-cheeked innocence - easy enough with the Blush Brush, gentle yet precise and perfect to fake a little reserve.

This one on the other hand should be used when you go in for the kill - a Retractable Lip Brush for true killer lips; for the more extreme cases blood red definitely is the way to go.

A successful agent is all about precision - do not betray your emotions with skewed eyeliner. The Eyeshading Brush is the safest route to gorgeous eye makeup, perfect for applying and blending.

Shine for your bravery rather than your T-zone - if things get physical and you find yourself a little worse for wear then wipe away the shine with a quick retouch courtesy of the Powder Brush, your trusted all-round ally.

If things reach a critical point then unleash your true secret weapon: your eyes. Making them pop has never been easier what with the Blending Brush to help you layer, define and refine! And with that your agent kit should be complete and ready to accompany you on your next mission - may it be checking the talent or saving the world!
