My "Go To" Brushes

  

This blog will be more of my everyday brushes and how to use them. As many of my fellow bloggers or any make-up lovers, I have tons and tons of brushes and yet I still feel like I need more. Lol:) Here, I just want to share with you what I reach for on a normal basis. Oh, and just to save this blog from looking like a page filled with links, I'm going to link the websites where the brushes can be found at the bottom of this blog. 

As you will see in the pictures I have some products along with every brush as an example on how I use it. I won't really be discussing them so much due to the fact that I want to keep this post about the brushes:) Enjoy!!<3

 

Because I'm not a foundation girl myself, I always go for a tinted moisturizer. I know there are probably tons of brushes to use to stipple on any liquid makeup, but preferably, this is my favorite. Aside from the beauty blender. Here I have Real Techniques, "buffing brush". I believe I picked this brush up early last year at a Bed Bath & Beyond. This came in their, "Core Collection" for $18. Totally worth it. I've been using this brush like no other to apply my tinted moisturizer and it spreads my makeup so evenly and leaves no marks. It's super soft and synthetic, so it's not harsh on the face. This brush has a rounded, dome top which gives the perfect application.

Here is my go to under eye brush. Though I do use concealer under my eyes, I don't do it everyday. I don't go out much so I don't feel the need for full coverage most of the time, but when I do go out I still usually only go with a light powder to get some coverage. This is the Sedona Lace 847 brush. This has a slight rounded top that makes easy for swiping back and forth under the eye evenly. This brush is nice and dense and fills stuffed with bristles. It's also synthetic  and easy around the eye area which is what I always try to go for. This brush is approximately $12.95.

My two favorite blending brushes!!! Both are from Sedona Lace. The one on the left is the EB09 and this brush is my brush of all brushes. I got this as a gift early last year and I have yet to find a better blending brush than this one. This brush has the most soft bristles I probably have ever felt. This is definitely a universal brush. Its flat sides make for the ideal "packing on" brush and its dome top to evenly blend it all out. This brush is only $8.95 and only having one, I might need to go buy a few more;)
The one on the right is the EB15. It is slightly pointed at the top making it a perfect brush to blend out any harsh lines in the eye socket. This goes for, $8.95. Another brush I feel is easy on the eyelids.

This is the jumbo fan brush also from Sedona Lace. There are only two things I could see useful for this brush, to me. One, and what I use it for is highlight:) I feel like this brush is simply perfect for that. This brush is jammed packed full of bristles making it full and soft. This collects make-up so well to give the most impeccable look. Two, I could see this working great for contouring. I can see the shape of this brush fitting just into place in the hollows of your cheeks. Either way, you can't go wrong with this. This brush retails for $14.95.

Aside from the fan brush I just talked about being beneficial for contouring, this is my every single time, go to contour brush. This is the Sigma Large Angled Contour F40. This brush literally feels like I'm applying my contour with a feather and is yet another brush I could never replace. When I'm applying my contour I feel as if this brush just knows where to sit on my face without trying so hard. It's long bristles makes for the perfect blending of any harsh lines. This brush is $19.00.

Last, but not least is my favorite powder brush. This brush also comes from Sigma and retails for$24.00. It is a soft round top and super dense  brush making the best application for an all over face powder. There aren't many more uses for this brush, but if you're like me and you use any liquid make-up on your face; this is the best powder brush to set all of it together for that perfect matte finishing look.
