Any suggestions? I need to replace mine.

Sonia Kashunk is good. I also like coastal scents.

EcoTools (available from Target and Walgreens) also makes excellent brushes.

Essence of beauty at CVS. I know most people don't like ELF but I have their studio set and it isn't bad. I like their kabuki.

I picked up a Sonia Kashuk blush brush, and crease brush. I spent $30, but already seems worth it! They're so soft.

The Everyday Minerals brushes I have are as good as my MAC brushes.

It's just personal preference to each individual and also depends on how much they clean their brushes between each use, but myself, being a professional
makeup artist have never had a problem using any type of shampoo when cleaning my brushes.

I've have no complaints about my smashbox ones. I don't remember what I paid for them though! It was a 6 piece kit a couple years ago.

I wash my brushes about every other week. I acutally just wash it w/ my face wash (biore)
Maybe I'll try another brand |

are better even than some of the Sephora brushes I have (and a whole lot cheaper).

Oh I forgot about the bruses CVS carries. They have a kabuki that I absolutely love. It's huge and so so so soft. I have a few Sephora brushes that are
good, but they are way too expensive. I'd rather just pay the same amount of money for a MAC brush.
