I am having trouble getting a good eyelook with my current eye brushes. Can anyone recommend a complete eye brush set or a few individual brushes to get s complete eye look.

In all the years and after all the eye brushes I ever had, I now absolutely prefer BECCA eye brushes. They are simply wonderful! I never bought a set, but have about four different ones.

After searching on Google about these brushes, I came across some makeup blogger, who reviewed and described Becca eye brushes. With this info, I went on ebay, and found good deals on these, buying them one by one. I did misplace one of them, and now going to get down to searching for it again, if won't find it soon at home.

All the other brushes I still have, pale by comparison and can not re-place my Becca's, even if they are same kind/same shape/same purpose brushes as Becca's.

The other brand I am super curious about is Artis. I have only one makeup Artis brush #7, and this one without a doubt immediately replaced all the wonderful quality brushes I already have for applying makeup. I will venture into Artis eye brushes, but they are totally different from any others, and I am not still sure, if I'd like them in use.

My fave right now are the Morphe Elite collection. I have numerous brands, but these are my fave right now and they don't break the bank.

Are those the brushes shaped like toothbrushes?

I love my Bare Minerals brushes! You just can't kill them! My IT set fell apart before a year went by!

Thanks. I guess I was looking at actual names of brushes. I get confused on which type of brushes I need for a complete look.

Name brands don't really help me. Anyone have a complete set they can recommend for a complete eye look or names of specific brushes.

hi. I have 3 of the brushes in this set. I think it is a great basics kit and you could do most eye looks with it. I find Sigma brushes to be very good. SL is a youtuber/MUA who does great tutorials and is very 'real' in dealing with issues such as oily skin, hooded eyes, blemishes, etc. Just search the sigma site. hth ~smiles, SnowKita (no affiliation ;-) )

The Stephanie Lange Perfect Eyes Collection includes:

E21 Smudge Brush - features a very small and short, rounded brush head. Best used with powder or cream products to smudge out pencil eye liner on the lower lash line or add smoky controlled eye shadow to the lash line for a softening effect.
E25 Blending Brush - features a slightly firm and rounded brush head for universal blending of products. Works well to soften intense lines and edges and great for combining colors on the lid.
E30 Pencil Brush - features a soft, tapered tip best to smudge pencil eye liner or create soft definition by using with eye shadow and smudging the upper and lower lash lines.
E40 Tapered Blending Brush - features a soft, fluffy brush head to provide a gentle application of color to soften harsh lines or apply a transition color to the crease.
E47 Shader – Crease Brush - features a small, tapered brush head with firm, yet soft bristles. This brush was designed for a controlled application of shadow into the crease. Use with dark shadows to deepen the crease without fallout.

I will check those sigma ones out. I have sigma that came in a essentials kit but I think they are to big and my looks tend to get muddy. I will check that set out also.

I found a Jaclyn hill video on morphe makeup brushes. She went over her favorites. She goes into really good detail on what each brush does and why. I need new brushes so I think I am going to order all but 2 she mentioned and pitch the ones I have.

@ccassaday - I know what you mean. I can multi task with Sigma's E25 Blending brush, if I could only have one brush- and I'd still be happy.. I'd only ask to have about 3 of them. You mentioned brushes being too big. Sigma's E45 Small Tapered is another great multi-tasker.

Good luck on your quest!
