What kind of brush should I use? I bought a Kabuki brush like a week ago and I was wondering if I could use that. What other brushes are there?What kind of brush to use with liquid foundation?
Kabuki brush best use for applying mineral foundation or powder foundation. For liquid foundation here are some brushes that you can use. I will give example of MAC brushes and compare it with cheaper alternative from other brand.

hope that helps! :)What kind of brush to use with liquid foundation?
You would probably be better off using a makeup sponge, which you can find at stores like walmart and target. You could buy a specific brush called a concealer brush that is specifically designed for liquid makeup. I find that the sponges are better though, because they soak up excess makeup that the brush could leave behind and make your face look matted.
a kabuki brush should be fore mineral foundation
for liquid foundation, u shouldnt use a brush. the warmth and texture of ur fingers will apply it much better. use ur ring finger to apply on nose and around eyes.
Those are better for powdered makeup. I use something like this:

They work much better.
Kabuki brushes are used for mineral make up, so no it wouldnt work. They sell separate foundation brushes or you could use your fingers or sponges. Best of luck :]
Foundations brushes like the MAC 190, but the newer way of putting on foundation is with a 'stippling brush'
Mac 190, or if your short on cash you can find one equally as good from coastalscents.com or from sephora.
