Häivytyssivellin

Häivytyssivellin, also known as a blending brush or smudge brush in English, is a makeup tool designed for softening and diffusing color on the eyelids. Its primary function is to create seamless transitions between different eyeshadow shades, preventing harsh lines and achieving a more natural or smoky look. These brushes typically have a tapered or rounded head with densely packed but soft bristles.

The size and shape of a häivytyssivellin can vary. Some are smaller and more precise, ideal for blending in the crease or the outer corner of the eye. Others are larger and fluffier, suitable for sweeping color across the lid or diffusing a cut crease. The material of the bristles, whether synthetic or natural, also plays a role in its performance, affecting how much product it picks up and how smoothly it blends.

When used, a häivytyssivellin is usually employed in a windshield wiper motion or small circular motions to gently blend eyeshadow. It is an essential tool for anyone looking to master eyeshadow application beyond a single color. The effectiveness of a häivytyssivellin relies on the quality of its bristles and its ability to distribute pigment evenly without over-applying or removing too much product.
