With a flat one you apply eyeshadow on an entire eyelid; match a size of brush with a shape of your eyelid. Another thing you need is an applicator to draw lines on your eyelids and apply eyeliner. Bristle should be cut flat or in point – choose shape according to your skills. Yet another, very important matter in eye make-up is blending eye shadows. For this you need special brushes with round tip. For crease you have to have round brush.
