The reason for a cakey looking face might not always be your actual beauty products; sometimes the culprits are your makeup brushes. Today on the blog is all about the best makeup brushes and brush sets for anyone from beginners to MUAs. Quality makeup brushes will leave your skin looking smooth and blended, maybe even that flawless filtered look. While makeup brushes are not always top priority in your Sephora carts (lets be real, the makeup is more fun to buy!), having the right ones will set you up for success. You may think you need expensive tools to accomplish that flawless look, but some of my favorites come from more affordable brands. Check out my favorite/ the best makeup brushes and brush sets below- Enjoy!
Brushes
M6 Pro Flat Dense Buffer Brush
$16.00
Have two of these- one for my foundation/skin tint and one for my cream contour and bronzer.
Sephora Collection Match Body Makeup Brush
$18.00
If you have also been a victim of poorly blending down the neck- this bad boy will help. This will help with a more seamless blending process down to the neck/chest. Good for foundation and bronzer and also self tanning!
Sephora Collection PRO Blush Brush #96
$30.00
This is technically a blush brush but I use this for my powder. The pointed top is perfect for getting in the creases of your under eyes and t-zone area.
Heavenly Luxe Airbrush Powder and Bronzer Brush
$49.00
A bit on the pricier side but I am obsessed with this brush since I got it a few years ago. Use this for all over bronzer.
M165 Angle Liner/Brow Brush
$6.00
If you love a super thin eyeliner look, this brush is perfect for it!
Heavenly Luxe Bye Bye Foundation Brush
$49.00
Another pricier one, but IT Cosmetics brushes are elite. I recently bought this and it is perfect for liquid foundations.
Ultra Plush Blush Cheek Makeup Brush
$9.99
Bigger blush brushes are perfect if you want that sunkissed/cheeky look. Real Technique brushes are definitely one of my favorite affordable brands and the quality is 100%.
Real Techniques Miracle Complexion Sponge
$10.99
Not a “brush”, but makeup sponges are a part of every makeup routine- the RT ones are amazing and so cheap compared to the beauty blender sponges.
Brush Sets
Your Beautiful Basics Airbrush 1015 Pc Makeup Brush Set
$58.00
Amazing quality- My sister picked this up and loves it. This set will give you all the face brushes you need.
Get Things Started Brush Collection
$38.00
If you are new to makeup or don’t know where to start with brushes, get this! An amazing price and Morphe brushes are some of the best.
Eye Obsessed Brush Collection
$32.00
Eye heavy makeup set. Almost all of my eye brushes are Morphe for a reason. Super soft and blends my shadows so nicely.
Your Multi-Talker Deluxe Dual-Ended Travel Brush Set
$48.00
A great travel set. The dual-ended brushes make this more compact so you can throw it in your bag or even just use it at home.
As an ode to one big cheesy breakup line, it’s not you, its the brushes. With these, you will be set for that flawless filter look- well, if that is your goal of course! 🙂 Don’t forget to follow the socials for all things AGBT. As always, thank you for supporting the blog, talk soon! Xoxo- Kelly
