201 nose shading

Angled brush for precise nose contouring

The PICCASSO 201 nose shading brush features an angled design tailored to fit the contours of the nose. Soft grey squirrel hair bristles pick up shading powder evenly for seamless color payoff with no fallout, while the flat brush surface glides along the bridge of the nose to create natural-looking definition.

Multi-use from nose to hairline

Thanks to its gently angled shape, this brush works beautifully beyond nose contouring.

• Sweep from the inner brow down the bridge of the nose in one stroke for dimensional definition
• Delicately shade around the nostrils to refine the tip
• Use along the hairline or for targeted highlighter application on smaller areas

Hold the brush vertically and apply highlighter down the center of the nose bridge for even sharper dimension.

For those who want precise contour work

Measuring 18.7 cm in total length, with a brush head 1.9 cm wide and ranging from 1.3 cm to 1.8 cm in height along the angle, it offers precise control even in narrow areas. Crafted with a wooden handle and premium metal ferrule, it's lightweight and durable, hand-finished by PICCASSO premium line artisans. A protective cover is included for storage.

After Base Makeup, During the Contouring Step

Use after you've finished your foundation and concealer base. Apply shading before setting powder for a soft, diffused shadow, or after setting powder for sharper definition. Beyond nose contouring, this brush also works beautifully for hairline shading or applying highlighter along the bridge of your nose.

Precise Application with the Angled Shape

Load the brush with shading powder, then tap once on the back of your hand to control the amount. Place the longer edge of the angled bristles at the inner corner of your brow and gently sweep down along the sides of your nose. For the area beside your nostrils, tilt the brush slightly and blend in circular motions to create dimension at the tip. When applying highlighter down the bridge, hold the brush vertically for a fine, controlled stroke.

Weekly Cleansing to Maintain Softness

Clean your natural hair brush (Siberian squirrel) once a week with a dedicated brush cleanser or gentle shampoo. Dissolve cleanser in lukewarm water and swirl the bristles gently to wash, then lay the brush flat on a towel to air-dry—never squeeze out the water. Drying upright can cause water to seep into the handle and weaken the adhesive at the ferrule.

Perfect Match for Powder Formulas

Thanks to its soft natural bristles, this brush works best with powder shading and powder highlighters. Cream or stick formulas may clump in the bristles, so for cream contouring, we recommend using a sponge or synthetic brush instead.

Protect the Brush Shape with the Included Cover

Store your brush with the protective cover provided to preserve the angled shape. Keep it in a cool place away from direct sunlight and high heat. Replace the brush when bristles start to splay or color payoff begins to fade.
