Please recommend cosmetic brushes that are very silky and high quality to apply, loose powder, blush, shadows, liner etc. that do not shed

are Jane Iredale's. I have the concealer brush to use with my Circle/ Delete Under Eye Concealer every day. My Mom has the Handi Brush to use with her Loose Powder Base. We just love them! Feel like the real artists at work! ~_^

i just bought the bodyshop concealer brush to use with bobbi brown concealer. The bodyshop brushes are not much expensive and very good. Bobbie brown brushes are so expensive.

I have a whole lotta M.A.C. brushes, and they're still in the same, good shape as when I bought them 10 years ago. I take really good care of mine though, properly washing & drying them.

Just thought I'd add my Au$0.02 Smile

I love the Bare Escentuals powder brushes. They are very nice and soft and also have a great shape. Excellent for powder, blush and powder foundation too! Jane Iredale makes great brushes as well. I have her Eye Shader, Eye Contour and Eye Liner (the flat one) brushes. All are excellent. My favourite is the flat eyeliner brush with the smudger on the other end. Makes applying eyeshadow as a liner an absolute breeze!

HTH!

I love MAC brushes. They last a really long time!

I like Jane Iredale's Foundation Brush. It's very soft and high quality. I don't use her liquid foundation any more and now I use it as my mask brush.

I have a few BB brushes, and have a review of them somewhere on this forum. They may be a bit pricy but you can feel the dif when you use them. MAC brushes are like that, too. They are pricy but they work great and I think they are worth every cent you spend on them.

When I was a poor student years ago I used the Body Shop brushes - mainly the blush brush and the eye shadow brush. I think they are the best among the cheapest.

While I don't use Red Earth makeup I think some of their brushes are ok.

HTH some! Smile

Prescriptives brushes are fantastic, also Jane Iredale. They will last forever. Just be sure to wash them properly.

If it is that silk feel you are after then Jane Iredale is a must!!
I would say Jane Irdale Handi for the face that way it can be used for Mineral and normal make-up, and MAC brushes for eye make-up as they are so easy to use.

I like MAC and Smashbox. I have a few Quo brushes from a Canadian drugstore and they're pretty good for eye brushes, but I prefer Smashbox for the face because they're so incredibly soft.

Most of mine are from MAC. Love the skunk one for powder foundations. The BB kabuki is nice for general dusting, and the Stila double-ended brush that came with a palette is my favorite eyeliner brush.

High-quality brushes are really important if you want a perfect make-up application. However, I always felt guilty using ones made of real animal hair. Luckily, I have found that Urband Decay, Hard Candy, and Too Faced sell cruelty-free brushes that are even more luxurious than the ultra-expensive brushes I was using before! If there are any animal lovers like me out there, you might want to check them out!
