1. Yellow Wolf Tail Hair: It is the best brush hair with soft and elastic texture. It is comfortable to use and can make eye shadow evenly, which is recognized by most makeup artists. The main production areas are in Hebei and the three northeastern provinces.

2. Diao Mao: With a soft and moderate texture, it is the finest among bristles.

3. Goat hair: The most common animal hair material, with a soft and durable texture. At the same time, there are 21 classifications of goat hair, and there are several suitable for professional makeup brushes: No. 0, Shui Cui (now known as Tiao Duan Feng), Huang Jian Feng, Huang Bai Jian Feng, Bai Jian Feng, Zhong Guang Feng, and Xi Guang Feng. The main production areas are in Henan, Hebei, and Wuxi.

4. Squirrel fur: cheaper than mink fur, with a soft texture.

5. Horse hair: It has good softness but slightly lower elasticity. According to color, it can be divided into authentic color, dark color, and black. Among them, black is relatively rare, and the annual production in China is not even 10000 kilograms. It is mainly produced in Hebei Province and is mainly used for eye shadow brush.

6. Artificial fiber: harder than animal hair mentioned above, suitable for thick and creamy makeup.

7. Nylon: It has the hardest texture and is commonly used as an eyelash brush and eyebrow brush.

We judge whether a makeup brush is good or not. It depends on his toughness, elasticity, and strength because all animal hair can be divided into three parts: the root, the body, and the tip. Because both the hair roots and the hair body contain a large amount of hair marrow, which provides a source of nutrients for hair growth, but it is also the most vulnerable area, prone to breakage. And the pointed part of the hair is homogeneous without any marrow, so it is very elastic, wear-resistant, and durable. This is also where high-end makeup brushes need to be used, because what we usually refer to as shedding hair is actually the detachment of hair from the body after it breaks. Think about it, you wouldn't have a good impression of a makeup brush that sheds more and more hair as you use it, let alone think it should. A good makeup brush can last for several years, and when you use it, it also involves how you use and clean it.
