Which one is better: Flat Foundation Brush or Stippling Foundation Brush?

Stippling brush is better in my opinion! I think it gives a clean finish a foundation brush can leave streaks if not applied carefully. Also I do not put the foundation the brush. I use my clean finger tips and dab it in areas then blend and work it into my skin with a stippling brush.

Stippling is better I use that makes blending better. Flat leaves
streak in foundation.

Depends on what kind of coverage you want... flat brush= light coverage, sponge= medium-full coverage, stippling brush= Full, flawless coverage. Most like the sponge and stippling brush because it blends better.

They are both good but I prefer a denser buffing brush as I find it gives a nicer finish and makes it easier to blend the foundation perfectly.

I actually use both. I use the standard foundation brush to apply the product all over my face and then I go over with my stippling brush to blend it in.

I love the flat foundation brush, but it can make the foundation look streaky and then I have to pat onto the skin with the brush after applying it.

I do not know how I could live without my stippling brush before, when I only had the flat foundation brush. I love it so much! Application is super fast, amazing finish and if I want more coverage on one certain spot, I just pat on a bit more foundation with the stippling brush.

I would have to say the stippling brush, but a flat foundation brush is also very good in my opinion.

Just to add my opinion real quick, I think stippling the foundation on takes less time than applying with a foundation brush because you can cover more ground in one movement.

Personally, I prefer stippling between these two, but my Ultimate preference is a really dense buffer brush. Like an oval brush or something. The finish is similar to stippling in my opinion.
