The best Make-up brushes

[louise jane]

I am looking to purchase some make-up brushes to use on my clients. Any one have any particular brand that they use and how good are they. Any help would be great before i purchase any. I am using my own collection of Bobbi Brown, Lily Lolo that i have at the moment. Just wondered if there was a very good priced professional brand. Thanks xx

Apparantly MAC brushes are very good. I'm going to be using their range of make up and brushes and they are reasonably priced too.

Jane Iredale Brushes are really good and last for years. Worth the money!

I agree.
The Body Shop brushes are affordable and really high quality.
They are easy to use and feel lovely on the skin.
The handles were styled on the Armani cosmetics packaging if I remember correctly, so pretty stylish.

I have used them for years (was a BS@H consultant years ago).

They were in the InStyle Hall of fame a few years ago for best budget brush range.

If you watched The Apprentice on Wed - the makeup artist for the TV channel was using them.

If you go into one of the shops they will use their brushes to 'make you over'. That way you could get a good idea if you like them or not.

Laura Mercier do the most AMAZING brushes - but very pricey.
Must agree MAC are fantastic.

Bobbi Brown, MAC are well-known Brand of Brush. I've never buy the brand as the price. Also, I think, if the price is expensive, I cann't buy new during a long time. If the price of the item is very cheap, but quality is ok. Then if I find the same things in the future, I will buy the new item at once. Don't need to scruple original item and money.
At present, Mine is a 8pcs Plush Vegan Bare Brush Kit Makeup with a Nylon Bag which bought from an online shop.

Hi there are many people who say Crown make MAC brushes not sure if true? Though i bought some and they are fab,
Mac yes of course though i looked wider and found Smashbox #19 brush for powder face and body was to die for. Tried more of these brush's and adore them.
One thing i did see is they make a set every christmas thats slightly shorter handle lentgh (not tip) or diff colour and they are such amazing value i like to buy allot of brushes and try various one out.
Also i agree Body shop foundation brush is great love it
Newbie hi all

Sigma brushes are unbelievable, and same quality as MAC, for a fraction of the price. They are based in America, but ship worldwide. Google comparisons for the two brands, there are many die-hard MAC fans that have made the switch. hth xx
