Whether you make your living doing makeup or you're just makeup-obsessed, you know the right brushes can make all the difference. The UD Pro Diffusing Highlighter Brush by Urban Decay is the ultimate blend of form and function. Designed for a sheer highlight or popping strobe, this brush's smaller shape allows for both a precise, controlled application and a diffused effect. Urban Decay's pro-quality, cruelty-free brushes are easy on the eyes and the environment. The brushed gunmetal handles are made from recycled aluminum, and the super-soft, synthetic hair (made from recycled plastic bottles) mimics real hair—from the feel to the pickup and laydown. Another plus: Synthetic brush hair doesn't hold on to gross bacteria the way porous animal hair can, so it's easier to clean and more hygienic.
