Hi!
Recently I found out that my stash consisted of a few iconic foundation brushes or applicators, which claim to apply foundation/bb creams really well. Here's a little table of comparison on their performance and stuff.

with liquid foundation as the bristles will harden
|

brush

For beginners, the Holika Holika roller is a good choice because its almost mistake-proof for a small price. The hardest to work with has gotta be Missha's, cos it takes some blending to remove the streaks.
Hope it helps!
