Must have basic eye makeup brushes

  •    Eyeliner brush

I like very thin brush if I want to draw a thin and close line to lashes ,but if I want a little bolder line I prefer the brush with a pointy head but thicker base .This kind gives you  more control and bolder look.So it's good to have both kinds in your brush collection.

My two favourites: 
a)      Sigma Small Eye Liner - E10 for precise and thin line  9:00 $

   b)      Sigma  Eye Liner - E05 that has pointy head and thicker base  9:00$


 
  • Eye shadow brushes

1)Flat eye shadow brush

to pack powder eye shadow on the lid 

        My Favourite:
        *Sigma Eye Shading - E55 9:00 $
           I absolutely love this brush .It is the best for the job . It is dense, very soft and grabs enough product and doesn't shed.
 

 


    2) Fluffy brush for blending

These brushes are good for blending eye shadow in the crease to make harsh lines blend and look softer .

          My favourites:
a)      Sigma Blending - E25  9:00 $
Great brush for blending .This is great size, blends wonderfully ,perfect for powder or cream eyeshadow, doesn't shed



b)      Sigma Tapered Blending - E35  11:00 $
     Another great blending brush to get softer look, this one is a little longer and gives a very soft blended look, doesn't shed.
 




3) Cream eye shadow brush

Cream eye shadow can be applied by fingers ,but I prefer using a brush .This way it will be applied nicer and we won't dip our fingers in the shadow.

My favourite:
                    * Spa resource cream shadow brush
I love this brush, under 3:00 $, applies eye shadow on the lid perfectly, grabs enough product and blend it very nicely, doesn't shed.


4)  Highlighter brush

I use this one to apply highlighter under eyebrow.

My favourite:
               *spa resource eye sweep
 this is a big fluffy flat brush, great for the job, very soft, and again never sheds.

5) Smudging Brush

This one is good to create Smokey look and transfers harsh eyeliner to soft smudged look.

My favourite:
                    *Spa resource eye smudge
This is great quality brush .very inexpensive,  under 4:00 $, very soft .


 

6) Pencil Brush

This brush is great to apply eye shadow in very thin spaces like inner corner or under eye.


My Favourite:

Sigma  pencil-E 30. 9:00 $    very good brush ,dense and very soft,doesn't shed.


 
  •   Eye brow definer

This brush is great to apply eye shadow to eyebrow to fill up empty spaces.
My favourite:
                     *Spa resource eye & brow definer
Great brush under3:00 $ doesn't shed, very dense & soft & great for the job.



These are my must have eye brushes, very basic brushes that you need to create any eye look. I hope this is helpful.
