[@BridgetKaneBeauty]

Oh I’m so excited for this! I don’t feel like enough people talk about brushes!!

[@bridgetbean79]

Bridget Kane heyyy I’m a Bridget, too! 😄🙋🏼‍♀️

[@butterflygurl1984]

I agree

[@katebattista7400]

I love that you still have a day job and never get entangled in KZbin drama.

[@Thastor]

Hey guys im Trying to contact her incase she needs music for her channel ! Im Tropical / Melodic house producer from Finland im now at 31k subs and 4m+ streams on spotify! Would be awesome if we could catch her attention ! Also you guys can use my music on your channels just credit my spotify, youtube and your good to go! :) Thanks so much guys!

[@myview6852]

I wonder why nobody has thought to make a clear cap for one side of two sided brushes ( a cap like for pencil products) so one side can be protected while the brush is stored standing in a holder!?

[@beautyfab8047]

You include something for everybody; variety when it comes to brushes and prices... great video ✨🙂👍🏼🎥💄

[@angielott83]

Ok, so the white handled Wet n Wild makeup brushes are AMAZING. The ones with the pink tipped hair. They are all fantastic, but I love the blush brush, the foundation brush is good, but THE BEST one is the crease brush. It’s $.99 and SO soft and perfect. I literally have like 4-5 of them lol. The thing is, I can’t find that one everywhere. I find it at a store here called Smith’s (it’s our Kroger owned store.... Fred Meyer, etc.)

[@Hundredacredaycare]

Angie Lott aka angelang83 I actually found that one at our dollar store!

[@alexis_evans1]

I have a bunch of them, all from like 4 different stores lol

[@princesskristan]

I have the crease brush and the small concealer brush that I use to apply my lid or inner corner shadows and I love them! I want to try the powder brush next as I heard good things about that one

[@imscanon]

Obsessed with brushes. Also loving my new Clairisonic foundation head.

[@karenbaker1979]

The Zoeva 142 Concealer Buffer Brush is definitely one I couldn't live without. I use it everyday to blend my eyeshadow primer, and it is awesome. I also love the Sigma F80 for foundation, and have recently discovered the new Smashbox brushes. The Sheer Cheek Brush has become my holy grail blush brush and the Sheer Powder Brush has become my holy grail all over powder brush. I also recommend the Sephora Pro Contour Brush and the Morphe E49 for setting under the eyes, the MAC 242 for packing on shimmer eyeshadow and the Morphe E36 for blending the lower lash line or for inner corner highlight.

[@kerenespinoza7246]

What is your current hair routine for curly/wavy hair!!!!! Please...

[@JenniferGaines]

Japonesque spray brush cleaner - life changer. Quick spray, wipe on a cloth. Dries in minutes, doesn't dry my brushes out, doesn't irritate my eyes. I have to wash my brushes much less often, and they are always clean when I want them. I use it every time I use my brushes.

[@stephcomer4672]

I've been in the market for some new brushes, and I'm excited that you mentioned some brands that are new to me or reminded me of brands that I've been wanting to try!

[@lizaw.7313]

Jessica, can you do a brushing washing video? I'd love to see what you've used that works the best, didn't work etc... how you dry them etc

[@MariaPaz-if3ft]

Yay I’m early! And my toddler is napping 😄 Winning! 😂

[@nikkin5590]

I am so happy you made a video on brushes! Love your videos. 😀😀

[@madisonc3445]

will you review the RMS uncover concealer? It's apparently the only concealer that doesn't sink into fine lines, or so I read on the sephora reviews!

[@camzhao]

I didn't even know Milani made brushes until yesterday when I picked up that exact highlighting brush from Walmart yesterday! So if you can't find those brushes in your CVS, Walgreens, Ulta, etc., try Walmart! On a side note, why is it that Walmart gets so many of the new launches and it takes other drugstores months for that stuff to trickle in...?

[@night_owl_sadness]

My favorite highlighting is the e.l.f. flawless concealer brush

[@amylouwho8991]

I'm soooo glad you did this. I love buying brushes, a little too much if I'm honest. Lol Inlove my Flower Beauty sponge and I bought it based on your recommendation. I hated the Real Techniques sponge, yuck. I may give the L'Oreal one a try. I love my Wayne Goss #16, I have hooded eyes and it's the perfect tapered crease brush. I love all my Elf and Wet n Wild brushes, these are proof that excellent brushes can be found inexpensively. Thanks for this Jess! You look beautiful.

[@meghanludwig5080]

What is the deal with the inconsistency in the L'Oreal sponges?? I've found the same thing, they're not all the same

[@courtneyszyszkiewicz7291]

Meghan Ludwig I thought I was the only one! I have gotten a couple in store and then the last three online and I feel like they are different. It’s weird. Like making my foundation apply weird. Am I alone?

[@suzannaboyd8205]

You’ve been knocking it out of the park with your video topics lately. I’d love to see a review of the upcoming Backtalk palette. It looks soooo pretty.

[@Beautybytracilei]

Great video-I agree with so many of your recommendations, especially the It Cosmetics blush brush. Another brush brand I’ve discovered is Smith-I have a couple of their eye brushes that are so unique in shape-they are some of my favorites.

[@Allyson6C]

Like any other part of Makeup, brushes are all about preference too I’m very specific about what Ill use. I’ve tried SOOO many brands & types & I know what I like & what works best, I even know their behaviors & patterns too lol.

[@maemae8182]

you will find this hard to believe but my first expensive brush was synthetic and the brush is around 40 years old! I have synthetic and hair. Use what works for you. I have natural hair brushes that I originally bought at art supply store for painting. No kidding.

[@Allyson6C]

Mae Farris Exactly Mae! It’s all about preference & what works best 😊. So funny you have a brush that’s almost a half a century old lolol! I’ve purchased some of my brushes from art supply stores too, but not so much now - no need anymore lol 😁

[@SamanthaMarchxo]

I am allll about good brushes, thanks for the video!

[@anjelyka5413]

You don't have to apologize for dirty brushes, just shows that those brushes are truly used and loved!

[@princesskristan]

My new favorite brush is the angled blush brush by Ruby Kisses. Its so soft and I got it at CVS for $3 because I had a coupon, but its only $4. You can also get them on the Ruby Kisses website, but they are really cheap and I personally like them a bit more than the ELF Studio brushes

[@aminafoudili3131]

I love brushes a lot more then anything in makeup and I love that kind of videos

[@elbellexx]

I never see enough of these videos!!

[@lisamiddleton3475]

I love my nude beauty blender but I just tried the Sephora $12 pink one and I love it! And I’m in love with my Wayne goss eye shadow brushes and my hakuhodo eye shadow brushes. They really changed my eyeshadow game. I also have a Luxi crease brush I love.

[@gabiimg333]

This made my morning!

[@elle1223]

you're the only other person I heard say that the L'Oréal sponges are the favorite. they're my favorite but I also think they're hit or miss. sometimes they're perfect other times I don't know what it is but it's definitely not the same

[@colleenburnham7840]

I agree with Bridget not to many people talk about brushes. By the way I use all Elf brushes especially since they put out the newest ones.

[@samanthajravery]

Thoughts on filming a GRWM using these tools? 🙃

[@kalynt6805]

I would love it if you would do a Shop Miss A haul and review. Also I loved hearing your top favorite brushes! Thanks!

[@sarahnicholson1543]

Oh...I have to buy the Flower Beauty sponge!!! And I'm going to get the elf crease brush and the Mac eyeliner brush because maybe that will make the difference for me too!!!

[@Dancinfanz]

Sarah Nicholson The flower beauty sponge is the best its so big and squishy.

[@sarahnicholson1543]

Dancinfanz And purple, which is my favorite color!!!

[@princesspratu]

I wish there was a brush set that was so perfect that every brush worked! 🤔😂

[@megansmith9137]

For eyes, try the Wet 'n Wild large fluffy blending brush! Perfect size, super soft, and keeps its shape after washing. And only $1!

[@arriatta_d681]

Buying everything you recommended, that is a no brainer

[@marianne8224]

you should try the Japonesque kumadori brush and sponge line from ulta! They're so bomb!

[@elainekim2704]

I need to try these! Also rn my fav brush is the elf precise powder blush in their new line and the anastasia eyeshadow brush that comes with their palettes lol

[@beck3522]

YES! Finally! Your favorite brushes! Weeeeeee! Thank you. 😘

[@mythologicalperfection1613]

I bought the flower sponge on your recommendation and I love it! I've never tried the beauty blender, but why spend that much?!? Thanks so much for talking about it!

[@caseyajb03]

I can never get into using bigger brushes for concealer so I'm always intrigued watching others do it😂 I have a collection of about 15 synthetic crease brushes & 15 mini beauty blenders that are just for concealer. I spread it out with a brush & smooth with a sponge. Bigger brushes & sponges never disperse as well. I end up having to use more product every time.

[@gloriacorbett1791]

I LOVE the L’Oréal sponge. I don’t think I’ll ever buy a beauty blender again

[@IisaStevens]

Yes! Makeup brushes is an area of my collection that I really need to upgrade!

[@kimi9757]

I was just thinking that I need to buy new brushes! Thank you for this video!

[@yolandaw.7227]

Elf selfie blurring brush for foundation and eco tools sponge. All elf and wet and wild eye brushes

[@michaelawestbrook1869]

If you like the elf crease brush you need to try the colourpop crease brush it is great. They are very similar.

[@kesha.m]

For christmas I got my favorite crease brush/brushes to date from MODA. I bought the mythical star set and fell in love with the crease brush and the domed shadow brush (used in the crease). Those two blend the crease out like nobodies business and makes it kinda hard to build up TOO much there. However god forbid you try to use them anywhere else you better be expecting a softer look. All the brushes are nice, but I want more of those crease brushes. I wish they sold the ones from that collection separately because I want THAT one SIGH.

[@kesha.m]

ALSO though I don't use them currently I LOVE those little mini swisspers sponges that are shaped like those mini beauty blenders. They're so soft, squishy and delightful!

[@blakemaxwell7413]

You should try Shop Miss A makeup, brushes and sponges. The sponges are the best I've ever used and only $1/1.55

[@amandaimhoff3987]

I love Luxie brushes!!!!!

[@catherine4dodo]

My go to foundation brush is 3DHD from Sigma.

[@armybratchic449]

I'm really into a brand called royal & langnickel (I think that's the spelling) they are soft they blend well and I love them

[@darbinatalie3887]

I love favorite brush videos!!!!

[@CrazyNaz82]

Jessica- I wanted to say thank you for the contact cleaning solution you talked about it your recent empties video. It’s seriously helped so so much. Thank you.

[@LovingLifeLovingYou]

Yes that stuff is amazing! Warning though for all!! I used it at my brothers one time and put my contacts back in before the time was up and it was the most painful thing I’ve ever experienced! The contact fused to my eye, burned like crazy and I legitimately thought “oh my god i just blinded myself”. I couldn’t keep my eye open long enough to get it out on my own, my brother had to hold my eye open for me. So dramatic and terrifying! So moral of the story is FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS TO A FLIPPING TEE! It’s scary if you don’t but such a good solution if you do follow the directions properly! (Hard and painful lesson learned!)

[@shokandof8961]

Thank you for this video. How often do you wash your brushes? And how often do you replace them?

[@hannahmohr8375]

Omg! You’re starting to look noticeably pregnant! You’re so cute!!! Congrats 🎊🎈🎉

[@r.e.2892]

I loooooove elf crease brush! Have like 3, such good price and quality! I I love the flat liner brush (for stamping lower lash line

[@BRITCLARKE]

I AM HERE FOR THIS! I have mostly Morphe and looking to expand my horizons! Sat down and ready!!!!!!!

[@alexislewandowski106]

ugh I loveee your hairrrrrrr 💖

[@jenniferwilliams5470]

Thank you so much for this! I'm needing new brushes and I watched Tati's video but I don't think she mentioned anything under like $50.

[@jenniferwilliams5470]

And my favorites are Wet n Wild. Most of the eye brushes are. 99 cents and they work perfectly.

[@KrystalAddiWatson]

Yeah I actually dropped one of my brushes in my coffee this morning too

[@meganlewis4927]

DO A MAKEUP BRUSH DECLUTTER

[@18whiteoleander]

Jess you are so funny and cute! Love your videos

[@samijo_bb]

I love all your videos!!!!

[@samanthagaudet1461]

I can’t live without the Wet N Wild crease brush. I bought that Lagure Dupe you mentioned. It is awesome. I really like the Elf Stipple brushes too. For bronzer it’s the Real Techniques powder brush.

[@jo-anndendekker1318]

Jessica, my wonderful husband bought me the Pur oval foundation brush for Christmas. I absolutely love it! First expensive brush I've ever used! Here in Canada it was $40. So worth it!

[@kimberlytran3784]

Question- I noticed you didn’t include any Sigma or Morphe brushes... what are your experiences from those brands? Thanks!!

[@MsAntigonaki]

There’s a large triangular tipped paddle brush that I like better than the L’aQuere and the Artis - I got it in a set for like $49 (I don’t even think it has a brand name), but because of the tip, I don’t have to change brushes for concealer from foundation AND it gets into the nose crease where it’s hard to blend foundation... LOVED this video, BTW, just bought an It cosmetics blush brush

[@kelly-annrousseau-bedard7225]

My very favourite one I think is the ELF highlight brush (the black one). It's great for highlight, but the shape is perfect for undereye powder!

[@robinnieto2703]

After Christmas I found a set of brushes with rose and gold handles at Target. They were originally $12 for the set of 5 with a small zipper case. I paid $3 and figured if they weren’t any good, no big deal. Wow, was I surprised in a good way. The blush brush puts on blush so natural looking it almost doesn’t look like you’ve applied makeup but that you have a natural flush. All of the other brushes work equally as well. The ELF crease brush is also a huge favorite as are some of the others.

[@extremeparafan14]

It Cosmetics heavenly lux powder dome brush 😍😍 my favorite

[@misstags]

Hello Jessica, I really apreciate your content! :D I have never tried those make up sponges but there is one at H&M that comes in a clear plastic box with an animal drawn in the box (diferent animals, diferent colors) and it grows a lot and it's very soft. Kisses from Portugal :)

[@hannahjacobs3416]

hey jess i agree the consistency in the quality of drugstore sponges and even some brushes isn't the best...my favourite one from the drugstore is the green sponge from ecotoools and the original real techniques sponge! However the beauty blender is the only sponge that doesn't take of product on certain parts of my face when im trying to build up a foundation or layer cream products (concealer, bronzer, blush, highlight, contour) and I don't know what it is but i have tried so many methods of blending product out that at this point i've just gone back to my trusted sigma F80 flat top kabuki brush, is the LA girl sponge any good maybe l'll give that a go and hopefully don't have the same problem with it

[@carolinaramirez6183]

This may sound crazy but L.A. Color has a beauth blender as well and Oh My Gosh! It's so awesome and also expands out when wet like thw Flower Beauty one and it's only two bucks!!!

[@imscanon]

For eyes, the best thing I've done is get squirrel hair Wayne Goss and Hakuhodu ones for anything below the crease and Hakuhodu crease brushes in supersoft goat. My eyes water terribly to even touch my lashes area so I realized that using the supersoft squirrel for outer V and lining top and bottom lashes really made a HUGE difference because they don't subtly scratch the skin near my lashes and I can barely feel using them. Highly recommend it if your eyes water.

[@tfox8413]

The L’Oréal sponges are too hard for me. I was really surprised that you really like that one, so I have been sticking with the yellow/orange sponges by real techniques. I so want to try the Flower beauty sponge though. I have looking for something else to try besides the real technique sponge. I really want a sponge that has the really pointed edge on one end. Love this video by the way. Always looking for good affordable brushes. I have a lot of brushes from Eco tools, but I don’t hear anyone talk about those brushes. They are so so soft too.

[@sr1673]

I know I'm late but does anybody here use jessup brushes?? Are they quality brushes?? Please help. Thank you ❤

[@mvmoffatt1992]

Jess, have you tried the Ulta brand orange sponge? I love mine but I was wondering how it compared to the other ones you like.

[@emmalee9035]

That's my favorite sponge!

[@christinacalcagno1228]

Walgreens started to carry new brushes and brush brand(s). I'd love it if you reviewed them

[@itsjessicabraun]

I will have to look into this!!

[@christinacalcagno1228]

I think the brand is called Lab2 or Labs2

[@arizonarose1894]

Love your brush video! Maybe you could do a brushes that just didn't work type of a video. Just a thought!

[@halliehorn7523]

I don't think I've ever been first viewing or commenting ever!

[@MadisonFalcoFoods]

Hello :) how exciting!

[@prettymagnified7088]

I use the Lagure brush every day. I bought it after watching your Artis vs Lagure video and I’m so glad I did!

[@emmo4765]

You should do videos like Emily Fox's where she watches her old favourite videos and sees if she still likes everything.

[@serenapearson8763]

glamour dolls makes a brush called the romantic rose brush that i cannot live without, the elf crease brush you mentioned seems really similar :)

[@Cjohnson7855]

You should make a video where one side of your face you use high end makeup brushes and the other side drugstore brushes. :)

[@juliajoyce3232]

I love your videos!!

[@darbysiler1329]

You should try the Shop Miss A super soft wonder blender. It is the best beauty blender dupe & it is only $1 on their website.

[@Hogwartskid]

Hey do you buy makeup from gilt? I got some coverfx and Bobbi Brown

[@FaithWangermann]

does anyone else use the nyx brush 16 for the crease? it’s pretty fluffy but I love it so much!

[@eschrad]

Totally unrelated to the brush talk, but is that a new lighted mirror on your vanity behind you? Do tell!

[@lisabarrera11]

Kathleen Light talks about colour pop highlighting brush similar to the abh.

[@Keell444]

Omg yes, i have the same issue with the L’Oréal sponge. I thought it was just me.

[@amandakesterson224]

Nothing beats my wet n wild crease brush. I've used mine to death and recently found them again at Dollar Tree (where I found the original) but I think they've changed them. The new ones don't work like my two old ones.

[@franceslopez9305]

Omg now I want to go buy another loreal sponge. I wasn't in love with with mine.

[@NailsByHales]

agree about sponges. I love the PUR sponges and everyone hates them.

[@christineronewicz5949]

Have you ever tried the Sephora brand makeup sponges ??

[@colombean84]

now i need the l'oreal and flower beauty sponge. thanks jess lol

[@missmandy2308]

i love you, you always say all the truest things and basically read my mind haha

[@brittanybailey7768]

Have you tried the essence eye liner brush? I find it too be the closest dupe to the Mac one

[@maisiejane2900]
