Over the years I’ve collected SO many so make-up brushes and I’ll admit I hate washing brushes so I usually just throw them away and buy new ones but what I’ve come to realize is how much a good quality brush makes a difference. Finally I can narrow it down to my absolute have-to-have it brushes for you guys!! 

I know it’s hard to decide which ones you really need, or how much is too much to spend on a brush. Just remember good make-up brushes can make a world of difference in the application and finished look of your make-up. Currently my four favorite make-up brush brands include illamasqua, Japonesque, Blendsmart, and NARS. 

Let’s start with the blendSMART2 rotating brush (available at Sephora). I’m obsessed with this brush!! Every time I get my makeup done by a professional make-up artists I’m always in awe at how flawless they make my skin look. Then I try to create the same look and nope, never does…until I got the blendSMART2. It seriously makes your face look airbrushed. It just blends and buffs product in SO good. The brush heads are interchangeable, which an amazing feature. You can get a whole makeup look done with essentially 1 brush. The three heads I picked up were the powder brush head, universal foundation brush head and the definer brush head! I have to say out of all of them the defined brush head is my favorite for blending in contour!!
