Makeup brushes doesn't have to be expensive.

I have a confession to make. I have a thing for makeup brushes and, I can't get enough of them. It's my weakness O_o. I know, makeup brushes are important tools to have but I don't want to break my bank in fulfilling my addiction. I'm always on the look out for affordable and good quality makeup brushes.

Image Essentials Brush Duo Essential set  is an awesome example of affordable makeup brushes without sacrificing its quality.

Where can you find it? K-mart stores in the makeup/beauty section

How much is it? $10.00 only!!

What do you get?
-Foundation/Concealer brush
-Angle/Dome eye shadow brush
-Crease/Smudge brush
total of 6 brushes!! I love makeup brushes in sets because you always get more out of your money.

How is the quality? The quality is unexpectedly amazing. The bristles are very soft and it feels very nice against the skin. There was minimal shedding the first time they were washed but it went away after awhile. The handles are made out of wood and it feels strudy.

These brushes are very good and effective. I suggest you check them out if there is K-mart near by where you live. I hope this helps ^_^

Have a great weekend!!

I agree with you on great inexpensive brushes. I have those brushes and they are terrific and great quality. They never shed for me and works great in application.

I agree, essence brush products are great and affordable! More affordable and worth the money than most of the high end brushes. I have a couple from CVS and it works great! I never bought the brushes from k-mart before but I'm sure it's the same deal. Mine had never shed ONCE and it works wonder.

I just subscribed to your blog. I've actually been following you for a while and I want to express that you are indeed very BEAUTIFUL. Those brushes look great, but I know you're repping some mark. brushes, too! I hope you do reviews on those. I'm a mark/Avon rep as well. I don't sell it as I should, mostly spoil myself, but I really like mark's brushes.
