Abstract: A makeup brush for use with a motorized handle has a substantially cylindrical body portion defining a first end, a second end, a blind bore formed in the first end, an outer wall that extends from the first end to the second end, and a coupling assembly formed at the second end that is configured for coupling the body portion to a motorized handle. An applicator is at least partially received in the blind bore and coupled therein. At least one finger grip is formed on the outer wall proximate to the first end and extends radially outward from the outer wall. The at least one finger grip is configured to enable a user to releasably couple the body portion adjacent a motorized handle without the user having to touch the applicator. In various embodiments, the blind bore has a solid bottom wall that separates the bore from the coupling assembly.
