Makeup Brushes

What brand of make up brushes do you use ?

Is it a particular type or a mish mash of many ?

what brushes would you reccomend ?

( please state the use when reccomending, thankyou )

I use a mish mash of ELF, Revlon, no name, and Essence of Beauty brushes. The ELF brushes are the 1.oo ones from the local dollar store, I used them for patting on shadow, applying color to crease as well as the highlight. I have a wonderful Revlon brush I used to blend out concealer. Many many no name brushes I have picked up here and there, a couple of fluffy powder brushes, a double ended stippling brush I use to even out foundation, works a charm and makes those pesky fingerprints disappear from my face. The Essence of Beauty is the two crease brushes that look like pencil brushes. Using brushes is still fairly new to me, I grew up using fingers for face and sponge applicators that came with shadows for the eyes. I still love using the sponge applicators.

im with you on this maddie, i too just used applicators or my fingers to do my makeup, i only really starting looking to brushes about 18 months ago.

I dont have anything too fancy, i have one set of mac dupe handbag size brushes and two sets of elf brushes, plus a couple of no name blusher and foundation brushes and some no name eyeliner and brow brushes and thats me quite content for now.xxx

I use alot of elf brushes, they are amazing especially the studio line brushes. U also have the blending brush from their new mineral brush line and I love it. I also use some studio tools, essence of beauty mz makeup brushes. I also have a few avon brushes which are really good and some knockoff MAC brushes.

I always found difficult to afford the expense of a complete professional set of brushes. On MAC or SEPHORA the price goes up from a medium of 15 to 20 euros and the more expensive..more..

I was finally surprised to find out that some of the brushes that are sold at H&M are actually excellent!

If you use eye shadows you do need good tools and the crease brush of H&M is just great! It cost only 2.50 euros and it has at the other edge a second brush that is designed to define angles and straight lines.. I love it. I also bought a regular one for the eyelid and it is very good too, I can use it also to create light point as under the eyebrows and in the internal angle between the eye and the nose, and to smudge. If you are looking for affordable and good quality brushes go to H&M in the cosmetic section. I was literally amazed to discover they have such good quality tools...I would have never expected it.

Thanks for sharing darling, thats good to know hun x
