Brushes Collection

Ok, I think it's a time for me to share my makeup brushes collection. One note tho, I don't own any of M.A.C brushes.... I know we all agree on the the idea of applying great makeup = using great brushes, but somehow I couldn't drag my ass to go on and buy a $40~something foundation brush, personally, I'd rather buy a great foundation LOL.

(same idea on nail polish, I think a $2,00 nail polish would look as good as a $20,00 ones, what you need is a great base coat and top coat. .... maybe it's just me)

So yeah, here's the pics:

The whole collection (I need better containers LOL)

Eye Brushes (Left) Face&Lip Brushes (Right)

My 2 super-duper soft Kabukis:
both are from Costco, Kirkland brush set (Left) Borghese Makeup Bag (Right)
They both shed like madness the first time I use them, but after the first washed they aren't as bad on shedding, and they are very soft.

Costco Brush Set (I get them with the roll bag and a shimmering powder)
The Face brushes:
L-R: Powder brush, Blush brush, Foundation brush, Fan brush (I use it for my super pigmented blush & for contouring my cheekbones), Brow/Lash groomer

The other brushes:
L-R: Eyeshadow brush, Angled eye contour brush (I use it for my inner corner and outter lid), Precision eyeshadow brush (great for crease), Eye smudger, Flat eyeliner brush, Lip brush

Bare Escentuals brushes
(from Beyond the Basics kit) *probably the most expensive brushes I own, but I didn't buy it myself, someone gave it to me hehehe*
L-R: Soft Focus Face brush (I use it for my powder and compact foundation, really soft) and Max Coverage Concealer brush (I love it, get the right amount of both liquid and mineral concealer)

Essence of Beauty brushes:
L-R: Angled cheek contour brush (for bronzer), and two of Crease brushes

Random brushes:
I got them when I was still in Japan so most of them are "Chasity" brand, except the 2nd from the right)

L-R: Small concealer brush (I use it for covering blemishes), Flat eyeshadow brush (this is my staple, I use it for foiling, packs mineral e/s and pigments really well), Fluffy blending brush (to blend harsh lines), Christian Dior brush (I hate it, so scratchy) and Small Angled brush (for eyebrow & lower lid)

and of course, my newest brush,
EDM Flat Top Brush
which I use for applying mineral foundations...love it mucho mucho
