This $34 dual-ended blush and bronzer brush by Wander Beauty gets used daily! It’s a workhorse. It never sheds, and it beautifully blends all manner of formulas and products. It’s also cruelty-free (a big plus). A makeup bag must!
Calling all students, moms (cat and otherwise), and basically any and everyone who loves makeup but doesn’t care to fuss too much about it. Wander Beauty’s Trip for Two Blush and Bronzer Brush is your new BFF (best face friend).
If you’re unfamiliar with Wander Beauty, they’re a fairly small cruelty-free beauty brand all about fast, fresh, easy makeup, and that sums up this brush in a nutshell. It’s designed for use with bronzer and blush, but I lean on it for my entire face base, and no matter what I throw at it, it handles it with ease and grace.
It adeptly blends liquid and cream foundations and tinted moisturizers without leaving streaks behind. Cream blush, powder blush, gel blush, bronzer or highlighter — this brush fabulously feathers them all with gradients that transition seamlessly from light to dark. It makes it easy to do my entire base from start to finish. I just clean it gently between products by running the bristles across a paper towel.
The bristles, by the way, are synthetic…which I know some makeup lovers have a love/hate relationship with because, over time, synthetics can stiffen up. That said, this brush is just as soft today as it was the first time I used it, and I’ve been using it pretty much every time I put on makeup for a few months.
Did I mention that the bristles don’t shed?! Good stuff!
I really like the size of both brush heads too. They’re just right. They cover a good amount of space on my face, but they aren’t awkwardly big, so I don’t accidentally end up with bronzer or blush in places they don’t belong.
IMO, the brush is similar in quality to top notch cruelty-free performers like the Real Techniques brushes (a budget option) and Hourglass brushes (a luxury option), and it’s a nice middle-of-the-road option at $34. I think it performs just as well as a $64 Hourglass brush.
You can find it in the Wander Beauty permanent line, and it’s available now on the Wander Beauty website.
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

How do you like the actual blush and bronzer?
Hi Maricar,
Here’s the review! 🙂
Thanks Karen! Just read it-admittedly I often go cheap on brushes, but I might spring for this along with the Trip for Two!
I really like a synthetic brush for creams, gels and liquids. Unfortunately, I don’t like double ended brushes because you can’t stand them up in a cup or jar without ruining one end. Unless they come with caps, like some of the Chanel brushes, which I think are over priced.
Lots of people don’t love double-ended brushes but I’m a fan of them, when the types of brushes are well paired, as this one looks to be.
