My brush roll is an object very close to my heart. I am forever rearranging, shuffling and substituting brushes in and out according to my changing needs, and at the moment I am content with all my little brushes lined up in order of use.
As you can see, my preferred brush brand is ELF, who offer extremely affordable but good quality brushes which are easy to get a hold of. Although I do find after multiple washes the Studio range (black handles) tend to become wobbly, its nothing a bit of duct tape cant fix and otherwise I cant fault their lovely soft bristles! Another of my favourites are from a random old set of Argos brushes I received many years ago when my makeup obsession was just rearing its head, but those brushes have lasted all this times- now that's a sign of a good brush!
I am hoping to invest in a few more of the Real Techniques brushes soon and I'm thinking about getting the Core Collection next, as the blush brush I recently purchased is now a must have in my collection!
Obviously I don't have a need for each and every one of these brushes in my everyday makeup routine, but its always nice to have a few extra lying around in case some emergency blending/makeup recovery is needed!
What are your must have brushes?

I need the core collection in my life! xx
DeleteFunny thing. I got that exact same brush set many years ago and actually just found the empty brush roll today!, I agree completley they are some of the best brushes I own and a still going strong! FABULOUS! I love the ELF studio brushes too. Just goes to show you don't need to break the bank for great quality brushes!!
ReplyDeleteI love that little argos set, they were such good brushes haha! Definitely don't need to break the bank for lovely brushes! xx
DeleteAh I have some serious admiration for your brush organisation, mine are all currently heaped into my make up bag in a huge mess haha! I quite like the ELF ones, too, but I find they shed a lot after a few uses :/ real techniques brushes are definitely on my to-buy list, though! xx
ReplyDeleteHahaa, it takes a lot of effort to keep mine neat, i get bored and dump them around my room haha! xx
DeleteI'm in serious need of further brush investment! All my favourites are beginning to fall apart :( I might give ELF brushes a go. Thanks! :) xx
ReplyDeleteElf have some lovely ones, although i find after a while the heads go a bit wobbly haha! But for £3.50 who can complain?! xx
DeleteGreat collection! I love Elf brushes, so affordable but do the job very well!
