Hourglass No. 15 Blush Brush

Achieve a beautifully diffused pop of color with the Hourglass No. 15 Blush Brush, an angled stippling brush specifically designed to make liquid and cream blush application effortless, controlled, and seamless. Featuring a custom angled shape and unique vegan fiber technology, this luxurious brush picks up and distributes cheek products evenly while giving you precise control over placement and intensity. 

The angled brush head is designed to follow the natural contours of the cheeks, making it easy to apply blush exactly where you want it. Its custom bristles are particularly suited to stipple-and-blend application, allowing you to build color gradually instead of depositing too much pigment at once. This makes it especially useful for highly pigmented liquid and cream blushes where controlled application matters. 

The brush was developed to enhance the application of Hourglass Unreal Liquid Blush, but its versatile design works with a wide range of liquid and cream cheek formulas. It can also be used with powder blush for a softer, more diffused result. 

Its lightweight aluminum handle provides a comfortable grip while allowing precise control over the angle and pressure of the brush, making it easy to create anything from a subtle flush of color to a more noticeable, sculpted cheek look.

Why You’ll Love It

The Hourglass No. 15 Blush Brush is especially useful if you struggle with liquid or cream blush becoming too intense in one area. Rather than simply sweeping a large amount of pigment across the cheek, its stippling design allows you to build color little by little, giving you much more control over the final result.

The angled shape also makes placement easier. Instead of having to figure out how to position a traditional round blush brush, the shape naturally works with the cheek area and helps guide the product upward for a lifted-looking application. 

Its versatility is another advantage. While it was developed specifically to complement Unreal Liquid Blush, it can be used with virtually any liquid or cream cheek product, including blushes with different textures and pigmentation levels. Hourglass also notes that it can be used with powder blush when you want a softer, diffused effect. 

The combination of precision, softness, and controlled blending makes it a particularly useful brush for creating polished cheek makeup without harsh edges or overly concentrated patches of color.
