Abstract: A powder cosmetics brush is provided. The brush has a handle and bristles and a magnetic element within the ferrule, between the handle into the base of the bristles. A magnetic or an electromagnet element attracts fine particles of iron-based or other cosmetic powders or foundations having magnetic-attractive particles and/or cosmetic particles and facilitates the application, distribution and removal of excess powder. The magnetic element is allowed to move within the ferrule such that sweeping and swirling motion causes it to knock against the inside wall of the ferrule to thereby dislodge some of the particles of cosmetic powder. The bristles preferably are flared from one end to the other and are cross-hatched to provide a first tier of longer bristles and a second tier of shorter bristles. The two or more tiers of bristles serve to distribute the powder more evenly on the face since the bristles will more effectively follow the contours of the face.
