Thank you, Mandy! I purchased the IT Cosmetic #115 brush based on your suggestion. You are not wrong! I did the stippling motion, and my makeup looked so nice. Also, you gave me amazing advice on my wedding foundation! I'm grateful for your honest advise. So glad that I found your channel few years ago! Oh and I love the new NARS foundation! :) TY, Mandy!

[@MandyDavisMUA]

Oh this makes me so happy to hear! Thank you so much for letting me know!

[@nicciellett5008]

Hi Mandy, I absolutely love my makeup brushes and my collection, both high end and budget run into the hundreds! I haven’t gone into the realms of the Hakuhodu or Chikahodu yet but never say never! 🤦🏼‍♀️Nicci x

[@sws2552]

[@MandyDavisMUA]

Thank you!

I love this video! I’m unsure of what brushes from IT Cosmetics are currently at Ulta, but I want to say when IT Cosmetics first launched brushes in Ulta, there were originally three lines. I’m horrible at descriptions so please bear with me. The cheapest was just called, “IT Cosmetics.” It has like a matte gray handle, 2) A step up was the “Live Beautifully” line. They have a shiny silver handle with pink writing. 3) And then the top of the line was “Velvet Luxe.” Those have a rubbery black handle and back then came in a velvet-like pouch. The #7, dual-ended, Complexion Perfection, that you mentioned and many influencers use, is from the “Velvet Luxe” line. I have both that particular brush. I also have the #206 Buffing mineral Powder brush from the “Live Beautifully” line. There is barely, and I do mean barely, any difference between them except the #206 isn’t dual-ended. Would you classify them as dupes?

[@MandyDavisMUA]

I haven't tried the 206 so I can't compare. I am sure they are similar enough to not get the most expensive one. :)

[@themerz6982]

Great post. Funny how important the right eyebrow brush is. If ya grab the wrong 1, not happy.

[@MandyDavisMUA]

Yes! Couldn't agree more!

[@loripare3441]

You’re so smart, Mandy. I’m gonna pack up my BK Beauty and IT brushes along with all my makeup and show up on your doorstep! 😉 I know you showed some techniques in this video that I haven’t seen before. Kept hitting rewind to get smart like you.... Love love love your eye look as usual! 💜

[@MandyDavisMUA]

LOL...thank you!

[@laurasutton8230]

Wow, Mandy, this was amazing and so timely! I was searching for a few new brushes today! This was so helpful and informative. Thank you for breaking down the various brushes by categories. I saved it for future reference. Enjoy using all your clean brushes tomorrow!😊

[@MandyDavisMUA]

Thanks so much Laura! I am glad it was helpful!

[@jillpappas6508]

Great video...kept me riding my stationary bike which is so boring....pouring here so stuck inside. Just a random not makeup related...you got me hooked on the HU chocolate bars and they have chocolate covered cashews. That is my after work out treat.

[@MandyDavisMUA]

Hope the weather gets better! And yes! I had a couple squares myself of the HU today. Love it so much!

[@maryallen9682]

Oh, Mandy, thanks so much! What a plethora of vital info regarding brushes... Now even I should be able to procure the appropriate brush fo the task! Haha! Stay well and Be Blessed. Love & Hugs, Mary 😉👍🏻👍🏻❤️❤️❤️

[@MandyDavisMUA]

So glad it was helpful Mary!! xoxo

[@rebekahk371]

I'm pretty sure that IT Brushes for Ulta set is back. I got it last year on your recommendation when they brought it back for the holidays. It's called "Your Airbrush Masters 6 Pc Advanced Brush Set" and I love them so much!

[@MandyDavisMUA]

You are so right it is!! So exciting! I just linked it in the description box. Thanks!

[@50781975]

The six piece airbrushed master set is back at Ulta on line. If that is the set you were talking about.

[@MandyDavisMUA]

Yes! Someone else mentioned it too. So exciting. I just linked it in the details section. :)

[@miriansavage1262]

Thanks for the video on your favorites Mandy.

[@MandyDavisMUA]

You are so welcome!

[@kathrynp8080]

I've always wanted Rephr brushes, so had a quick shufty on their website, and oh glorious 😁, they have an EU warehouse where their brushes have been pre-cleared, so we don't have to deal with customs where taxes and duties apply. Joy...could be on my Xmas 🎄list!

[@MandyDavisMUA]

Oh yay! So glad you got all that great information....thanks for sharing!

[@JudiBoyd]

Loved seeing all your favs.. a lot of my favs as well. Been waiting for this video. Thanks so much for all the work that went into to making it.

[@MandyDavisMUA]

You are so welcome!

[@carolchadwick3580]

Awesome video .... I'm happy to say that I have 90% of the brushes you mentioned and love them. ❤️

[@MandyDavisMUA]

Oh that's awesome Carol!

[@SueB402]

I appreciate this detailed review Mandy. I’m always interested in learning about which brushes work best for specific and detailed areas. I love all of the BK Beauty brushes and also the iT Cosmetics foundation brush. One day I’d like to try a few of the Rephr brushes but since I have plenty in my collection I really don’t need any at this time. Thanks for your hard work in making this video 🥰

[@MandyDavisMUA]

You are so welcome Susan. I am glad it was helpful!

[@kalliamn56]

Great video! How about Zoeva brushes?

[@kathrynp8080]

Love Zoeva brushes. Excellent quality and the prices are brilliant.

[@MandyDavisMUA]

I do have some Zoeva brushes and while I do think they are great, the bristles tend to mold on me near the ferrel when I wash and dry them the same as all my others. I have always been perplexed by that.

[@mandyincolo]

Wonderful video. Thank you.

[@MandyDavisMUA]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@lethopefloatify8]

It would be awesome to see a drugstore version!

[@MandyDavisMUA]

I don't own too many brushes from the drugstore, but I can say that you can't go wrong with any real techniques brushes you try. Their setting brush is my fave brush for my kit. I have at least 10 of them.

[@lisaatchley5413]

Loved this video...So helpful!

[@MandyDavisMUA]

So glad!

[@pascalevallet8194]

Waou your make up is so gorgeous.Thanks for this video very helpfull.

[@MandyDavisMUA]

Thank you so much!

[@cathymccarthy5360]

Thank you for this video Mandy. 💕 I love hearing about your favourite brushes and how you use them. I particularly love that you’ve been using most of these brushes for many years. I finally got to buy the 22 bronzer brush I’ve been wanting since it was released. 🤗 I still think it’s expensive, but thanks to you I’m saving 20% with free shipping. 🥰

[@MandyDavisMUA]

Oh yay Cathy!! Please tell me how you like it!

[@lengeronilla4981]

Another great video!!!! ❤️

[@MandyDavisMUA]

Thank you!!

[@reynodp]

Yay! Thank you!

[@MandyDavisMUA]

You are so welcome!

[@brendaf1033]

Brushes!! There is no such thing as too many brushes!

[@MandyDavisMUA]

Amen to that!

[@cathycawley6097]

Thank you for mentioning a blush brush for smaller faces! Most are so large that my blush ends up down to the bottom of my cheeks (not becoming after 50)

[@MandyDavisMUA]

You are so welcome!

[@amyschmidt6082]

Love this video, soo helpful! Thanks!

[@MandyDavisMUA]

Glad it was helpful!

[@tonyasuttie3296]

Very helpful!

[@MandyDavisMUA]

Glad it was helpful!

[@lauralierutledge5828]

Helpful video! I have ordered several of the rephr brushes and I’m looking forward to the core Collection arriving. Do the permanent brushes vary from the concept brushes very often?

[@MandyDavisMUA]

So glad it was helpful! I don't find they vary enough to perform differently at all. :)

[@jbias9925]

I still need to watch, but I did order few Rephr 2, 3,15. Thank you for the discount code and doing this video along with a list of the brushes. Your videos have replaced Netflix. What do you use for brush cleaner?

[@MandyDavisMUA]

Oh yay! I can't wait to hear what you think of your rephr brushes! My fave brush cleaner is the Dr. Bronner's Liquid Castille Soap. :)

[@jbias9925]

Thank you. I'm waiting on some Kosas too!

[@letyreyna6511]

thanks for vid pretty lady. be safe

[@MandyDavisMUA]

Thank you! You too!

[@MsDianaJean]

Mandy, where did you get the brush case you’re holding in your thumbnail? I have a small one like that, but a big one would be handy!

[@MandyDavisMUA]

It's an old one from Morphe. :)

[@karinboonstra4563]

Love this! Now I want the Rephr nr 22 but it is sooo expensive 😭

[@MandyDavisMUA]

Thanks Karin! It is an investment for sure. The 20% off helps and it is one of my very favorite brushes in my collection. :)

[@karinboonstra4563]

@@MandyDavisMUA Oh I guess I missed the part that there is a discount.. 🥴😅 That definitely helps!! Thank you!

[@mspris76]

But wait.. where is your brush cup from?? I love the size

[@MandyDavisMUA]

LOL...I think it's from Morphe. I have had it for years and I can't find the other part of it. ha!

[@jhc7731]

Is the Bdellion 760 brush thinner/ more precise than the sigma E06?

[@MandyDavisMUA]

It's been a long time since I used the Sigma one, but from what I can remember, yes..the 760 is smaller/more precise.

[@laraguedes4141]

Do you know if you still sell the old brush 22? It seems to be softer than the new one you showed.

[@MandyDavisMUA]

It was just because I hadn't washed the new one yet. :) The other one was their concept brush, and they don't have that particular one any more. :( The permanent one is excellent!

[@JND-zf4sg]

Mandy, did you live in Texas?

[@MandyDavisMUA]

No, I am a born and bred Tennessee girl. :)

[@MSUSPARTANS1973]

I personally think rephr brushes are ridiculously overpriced; however, their customer service is fantastic! Additionally, each week or month (I forget) they feature 1-3 brushes in their concept store for 50% off!! That is unheard of. All they ask is you fill in the survey they’ll email to you a month after purchase.

[@MandyDavisMUA]

Yes, I have spoken with the owner and the concept store has always been something he has wanted to do. I love them, and think they are worth every penny, but do appreciate them offering the concept ones at such a great price. :)

[@stampwithmarcee]

Well, my wallet just caught on fire. When it comes to foundation and brushes, I have a problem. 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@MandyDavisMUA]

Bahahaha...my wallet catches on fire daily if it helps to make you feel better. LOL
