A makeup kit isn't complete without our trusty application tools. Makeup brushes help us apply foundation evenly and nail whatever kind of eyeshadow look we're trying to pull off. Sure, we can buy makeup brushes individually, choosing just the ones we use most, but we prefer to take the easy route with a makeup brush set that contains all the essentials — no thought or planning required.
Looking for the perfect makeup brush set can be a little daunting: there are pro-level makeup brushes that cost hundreds of dollars, Instagram-worthy makeup brush sets that look gorgeous on a vanity, and then there are budget brushes that get the job done without maxing out our beauty budget. The good news is, the best cheap makeup brushes work just as well as their pricey counterparts. Read on for our picks of the top bargain makeup brush sets.
