Hello, 2021! Lord only knows what’s in store for us this year, but that doesn’t mean we should let some self-pampering go. It’s time to break down Flawless World’s very first beauty pick of the month for 2021: the Wet n’ Wild blush brush! I picked this brush because of the time of year we’re in.

This brush is perfect for both those who are and aren’t on a budget!
In case this is your first time checking out Flawless World’s beauty pick of the month, below I’m going to break down exactly what this product is, why I’m loving it, and how I use it. Read ’til the end for a step-by-step video tutorial.
What is it?
Wet n’ wild blush brush:
[from the Wet n’ Wild website]: “Your search for the perfect blush brush is over. Designed perfectly for the apples of your cheeks, this brush is designed to make you blush. Innovative bristles and an ergonomic handle push this staple over the top.”PRICE POINT: VARIES BY SELLER, $3.49 ON WET N’ WILD WEBSITE, $2.99 ON AMAZON. ALSO SOLD AT TARGET, RITE AID, AND MORE.
WHY I’m loving it:
When I bought my first blush, I knew I needed to get a blush brush to apply it. I found this brush on Amazon, and it had decent reviews so I figured I’d give it a try. I’m not going to lie, I was a little disappointed with it at first; I felt like it barely picked up any color. Instead of using it for blush, I started using it to wipe away baking powder underneath my eyes and around my nose and mouth.
But a couple of weeks ago I was playing around with makeup, trying a new face makeup routine, and my normal blush brush had already been previously dipped in a pinky shimmer blush, and with the look I was going for I wanted to do a peachy matte blush shade. Having stopped the process of sweeping away baking powder under my eyes and around my nose and mouth a few months ago and not wanting to dip my normal blush brush into the one I was using, I picked up this one, figuring it would get the job done. I don’t know what happened, but I was blown away by how well this brush applied my blush! Not to mention, the bristles are so soft and felt amazing against my skin—no tugging, rubbing, or anything!
What I really like about this brush is the affordable price point. The fact that it won’t break your bank and is versatile (can be used for blush and sweeping away powder) is also a plus. Another thing I love about this brush is the handle; it’s so long, and there’s a groove that your thumb or index finger can fit into nicely. Did I mention that the bristles are super soft?! This is definitely a good buy for those wanting to get better at budgeting this year, and those who may be on a tighter budget since some post-holiday spending.
Application
How-to:
- Dip brush into blush.
- Tap off excess.
- Tap blush onto apples of cheeks or any other desired places using a stippling motion.
- The stippling motion will naturally blend the blush out, and also give you more accurate, perfect placement!
