  1. The Sonia Kashuk small shadow and fluffy crease brushes (white handles). I can't really pick a third but the contenders are all Ecotools face brushes ( bronzer (for foundation), powder and blush brushes).

  2. Elf Studio face powder brush
    Elf studio angled blush brush
    And YSL eye-shadow brush

    Funny enough I have YSL powder brush and a Chanel kabuki brush Anne I don't use any of them. I prefer the elf brushes.
    Except for the stippling elf brush I love elf brushes.
    I need a good stippling brush because elf's didn't cut it... too thin.

  5. My favorites are the e.l.f. studio brushes, hands-down. In particular the powder, stippling and complexion brushes, and there's that tiny slanted brush I use to apply eyeshadow wet, as liner. I do have an old eco-tools brush I use a lot, too, but I don't know what it's purpose was; now I use it to sort of stipple and blend concealer.
