A cosmetic applicator brush is provided comprising a brush stem and a plurality of fibre arrays extending from the brush stem. The plurality of fibre arrays comprises at least a first zone defining at least a first pitch between adjacent fibre arrays located within the first zone, and at least a second zone defining at least a second pitch between adjacent fibre arrays located within the second zone, with the at least first pitch being different to the at least second pitch. The invention further discloses a method of manufacturing a cosmetic applicator brush, the method comprising using a stem pin to retain a multiplicity of fibres, in a primary twisting step, twisting the stem pin to form a twisted stem pin with a plurality of fibre arrays extending from the twisted stem pin, fixing a first region of the twisted stem pin, such that said first region is unable to twist further, the first region defining at least a first zone of the cosmetic applicator brush, the at least first zone in turn defining at least a first pitch between adjacent fibre arrays located within the first zone, and in a secondary twisting step, twisting a second region of the twisted stem pin to define at least a second zone of the cosmetic applicator brush, the at least second zone in turn defining at least a second pitch between adjacent fibre arrays located within the second zone, with the at least first pitch being different to the at least second pitch.
