    Primarily I use the 213, 239 and 219. All MAC. The 219 is my most favourite brush! It’s perfect for applying crease colours and for smudging and softening liner.. I have 2 :D

    Some essence of beauty brushes (CVS brand, great quality, very soft), a Tarte double-ended brush, a Sonia Kashuk eyeliner brush.

    I’m holding out for some nice sets before I buy any from mac.

    MAC 242 is my favorite brush ever :D I also frequently use Benefit’s smudger brush (now DC-ed), and a lot of Mark (by Avon) brushes, they’re really nice and the liner brush is a HG. When I remember (because I forget I have so many brushes sometimes, haha) I like to use my double-ended Tarte brushes. Oh! And this brand from K-mart (of all places) has really nice brushes (I don’t remember the name, but they come in pink envelope packaging) too!

    I have yet to invest in super good brushes (gasp I know!) because I’d rather spend money on the make-up right now. My generic brushes have been doing just fine though, haha. I actually really like the brush that comes with the LOreal HIP pigments.

      Hey Amy! I was just like you, it took me a long time before I would buy high end brushes!
