The Best Makeup Brushes On A Budget

[@Texaschik01]

Great video😊 thank you for sharing!

[@maryellenstark9383]

Thank you for this very helpful video ! I was wondering how you clean your brushes? Do you have a video or any tips? I enjoy you very much 🙂

[@nguinn1989]

Thank you I look forward to your videos I like the r20 lash curler my lashes don't pinch anymore

[@jackiestone5808]

Great video very helpful!❤

[@jeannineenos2758]

Hi Bobbie, great video. Love all the elf brushes you showed us. I wrote them all down because I need new brushes. Thank you❤

[@RitaVernoy]

Thanks for the information!❤

[@karlaharvey2623]

Good Morning Bobbie,😊 I started out with the Real Tecnique Brush Set you showed and also their Large Blush Brush ( I love it for applying powder bronzer). I e got a couple of Elf Brushes as well, but still on the fence with the foundation brush. I’m with you, Rephr is my favorite and can’t wait to get some of their Face Brushes. I purchased the BK Beauty Core Extension Brush Set ( didn’t realize how small the face brushes would be, but love them as well. Anyhoo, great video Bobbie. Thank you for showing a couple brands I’d not heard of. I can’t wait for Rephr to have another Big Sale so I can buy a few more of their brushes. 😊

[@MindfulMidlife]

Thanks Karla! Hopefully around the holidays things will go on sale!!!

I've never used powder puffs before but I need those big hearts! 💖

[@bernerandgoldenmom7143]

Thank you so much for this, Bobbie! There are so many brush options out there now that it's hard to tell what's worth the money. I will add one more brush maker who has been amazing. It's a company called Lamora. They have a set of Kabuki brushes that are incredible. They are tightly packed, versatile, and soft as a kitten's ear. I was so impressed, I tried their eye brushes as well. They are even MORE amazing. I'd love for you to try them out and give us your opinion because they have a very budget-friendly price, but make you feel like you're using pro tools.

[@LenaSheppard]

Thanks for doing this for those who don't buy hi-end (anything). I like most of my rt brushes & rephr brushes except the handle came off of my #03. The beakey products are great; and so is the stansout. I appreciate you being here !

[@MindfulMidlife]

If you contact Rephr, I'm sure they will replace your #3 brush.

[@suehembrook6956]

Great video. I agree, I have the Albeaut concealer brush and love it.

[@MindfulMidlife]

It's so good! Thanks Sue!

[@doveandolive1153]

Amazing video Bobbie sincerely so helpful to understand all the different brushes. Recently I bought the e.l.f. Cosmerics Camo Liquid Blush and at the same time bought their Angled Liquid Blush Brush. Loving both products and for the price it was worth trying out. Will be trying out 3 of your recommendations. I'm finally enjoying wearing makeup again all because of you and your videos. ❤ thank you!!

[@MindfulMidlife]

Wow, that's so nice to hear. I'm glad my videos have been helpful - that's why I started my channel. Thank you so much!

[@Diane0123]

Great video, love affordable products, I have very hooded eyes as well, more so than yours but my favorite eye brushes are my Sigma brushes, I know they are not your favorite 😊 but they are definitely mine. 😁🇨🇦😁 God bless 💜

[@MindfulMidlife]

I'm glad you found ones that worked for you. Thankfully, those are good quality brushes as well! Thanks Diane!

[@Pamela-B]

I have never been able to use an eyelash curler. No matter what I do, I always end up pinching my eye lid or even the skin near my eye. So I just gave up. lol. Maybe I’ll give the one you recommend a try. How to know which size to get though…?🤔

[@cherylann8292]

Me too. So i reverted to heating up the back of a spoon, under hot water, blowdryer, whatever method works for you and just holding the back up against my eyelashes. Especially on the ends to open the eye

[@debbiewalker273]

I have small deep set hooded eyes, and use the rephr’ 20R. Works the best of any curler since I started curling my lashes in High School, and I’m 63 now. I’ve beenthinking of trying the smaller 18R, to see if there’s a difference. The rephr’ does not pinch my eyes, like all of the other’s do.

[@debbiewalker273]

Thanks Bobbie ! So many affordable options, for brushes ! I can’t live without my rephr’ eyelash curler ! I may try out the smaller 18R. 🥰

[@MindfulMidlife]

I have small eyes. I think that's why the 18R works for me.

[@debbiewalker273]

@@MindfulMidlife I’m going to try the 18R. Out of stock right now, but will order from the concept store when available. It’s an affordable price. 😃

[@kristinam2719]

I am missing the link for the concealer brush. Is it in your line up? Please post. Thank you.

[@MindfulMidlife]

It’s there, but here you go! amzn.to/3BJmu3M 🤗

[@mnpickle]

Me too, please.

[@mnpickle]

Just saw link 😂 sorry.

[@rebeccaw1772]

Great video!❤ I’m experimenting with Elf brushes myself and I do have some real techniques ones too, do you recommend a certain order if I’m using cream blush, but powder bronzer ? Love all of your videos! Always great information

[@midlifemom5829]

I love the smaller Rephyr eyeshadow brushes for my hooded lids. The face brushes are ok, i find them prickly. I like Elf, Sephora and Sigma for face. Ooh i would your the Real Technique kitten paw to apply cream blush along the highpoint of my cheeks

[@MindfulMidlife]

I'll have to try it for the blush. I'm thinking it may have too much give, but maybe not! Thanks for the suggestion.

[@cherylann8292]

Great info. I get confused most times on which is for what

[@MindfulMidlife]

Hopefully this will help! Thanks Cheryl!

[@kellyrutherford2147]

Great video. I have a question. I love the Laura Geller powder foundation. I’ve been using a brush that I got many years ago with Bare Minerals powder foundation, but it is dying😂. Do you have a surgeon a brush for the powder foundation? I like to build it up a bit to get medium coverage. Thanks!

[@MindfulMidlife]

Sadly, I'm not going to be too much help for you on this. I don't use powder foundation. I have heard many say the LG brush recommended for her powder foundation is amazing! Since she has sales all the time, you may be able to get it at a decent price. Sorry I can't be of more help on that!

[@sallycowan3109]

Your make up and color looks fabulous! What's your secret? tanning drops vs foundation?? :)

[@MindfulMidlife]

Thank you so much Sally! I use tanning drops (Tanologist) in light so I don't look so pale. It makes my foundation look so much better and I can even go without foundation.

[@shannonwhite7605]

Bobbi... what color or number of shade do you use in the Perricone MD liquid eyeshadow, please?🥰❤️💄💋

[@MindfulMidlife]

I use Shade 2. I just bought Shade 3, but I think it's too dark for an all-over color.

[@TSauer-ew9qn]

Interesting how differently we experience these brushes. I bought the Real Techniques kitten paw brush and was disappointed with what I felt were prickly bristles. Thank you for highlighting more affordable brushes, though!

[@MindfulMidlife]

Interesting...I don't feel that at all, but as you said, we are all different. 🤗

[@Spark1221]

Great video/suggestions, thanks! (I've found that every black-handled ELF brush sheds like crazy no matter how carefully you wash + care for them, I've thrown them all out...)

[@MindfulMidlife]

Really?!? ...that's annoying! I have not had that problem at all.

[@tammiesuppo9633]

Just when I think I own enough brushes…

[@MindfulMidlife]

Haha, I completely understand!!!
