Re: What a difference a brush makes

I remember a very long time ago reading articles about make up brushes and the necessity of using not only the correct brush but a quality brush as well.   I have always picked up nice brushes over the years and I keep them clean .

I have many brands of brushes, including some that are at least 25 years old.  I still have my favorite Maybelline e/s brush from back then. I don't like sets, it's one of those things that not every company makes every type of brush the best.  I have

different brands, Bare Minerals, IT, Sigma, Sephora, Bdellium and Real Techniques from WM. 

 

I keep my brushes in this small, zippered Relavel brush organizer from Amazon.  It's sturdy, holds lots of brushes and keeps them free of dust.  It's $12.99 and comes in a few colors.

@monicakm - Morphe brushes, to me, aren't expensive.  Thats why I like them.  Some Real Techniques or ELF brushes were more expensive than Morphe - at least the ones I saw at Ulta.

@JudyL   Saying this may not make me popular here but you may also find your new brushes work better because they're made with natural  hair, not synthetic fiber.   Especially for eyeshadow.

Edited- Any powder makeup in fact.  Glad to hear you like the new smaller brushes.
