Why you need it: Using this type of brush allows you to deposit the color slowly and build up, so you get a natural result, not a blob of color, explains Babaian.

Very helpful, I've been staring at walls of brushes and then just walking away because I'm too overwhelmed to know where to start.

A good assortment of basic brushes but would've appreciated a budget friendly option for each as well. Have found the Real Techniques Expert Face Brush to be fantastic for liquid foundation and the RT Powder Brush so ample and soft for powder application.

I am completely clueless about brushes, so this was really helpful.

Good info. And I just learned I've been using the wrong brush to contour my eye crease -- even though I own the right one! Will give it a try with the right one tomorrow.

Excellent information! A retractable lip brush is something many women forget, but it makes a huge difference in your appearance. ELF DOES have great brushes--for a song--and I once used only all-natural ones.

Only seven? Make-up brushes are my favorite beauty product. Right now, I really am geeking out about Eco Tools.
