I don't have a huge collection of makeup brushes, nor do I think its really necessary, here are my essentials.

I've used a stippling brush for my foundation for a long time now, I just find that it makes the foundation go on easily and fast, I like the finish a stippling brush gives, my favourite is the Real Techniques one. I actually use a kabuki brush for my powder, but in the picture it is the Eco Tools Powder Brush. 


I don't think many people use them any more, but for me I see no wrong with a good old eyeshadow applicator, these ones are just from Wilko, I think they're great for the light colour in the inner corners and the other end of the brush for underneath the bottom lash line. Of course, I think a blending brush is very essential, the fluffier the better, the one I'm using at the minute is from Seveteen. The pink brush is just a flat eyeshadow brush that I use to pack on the colour, it's from a 'Glow' kit, off of Amazon.


I think the Tweezerman angled brush is actually for eyebrows, but I find, it is brilliant for winged eyeliner, the bristles don't fray like I have found on some cheaper ones, I really like it. Lastly, is an angled contouring brush, also from the 'Glow' kit off Amazon, I use this for bronzer but I also use a different, but similar one, for my blusher. And that't it.
