Affordable Brushes

You don't have to have the most expensive brushes to be able to do good makeup. I feel I do a pretty good job with my makeup and I use mostly craft store/drugstore brushes. Don't get me wrong, I love my MAC 217, but I love my other brushes too. Here is a breakdown of some of the more affordable brushes I use on a regular basis:

E.L.F. Complexion Brush $3.00
Can be purchased at Target stores or eyeslipsface.com

C406 Lg Duo Face brush $8.49
C408 Chisel Shader brush $3.29 - SOLD OUT as of 5/23/11
C433 Pro Blending Fluff brush $5.49 - SOLD OUT as of 5/23/11
C412 Deluxe Pointed Crease brush $4.95
PP27 Bullet Crease Brush, Pink $2.19

Where I got prices for Loew-Cornell Maxine's Mop brushes: Hofcraft.com
Can be purchased at craft stores, I got mine from Michael's
Loew-Cornell 3/8" Maxine's Mop $2.77
Loew-Cornell 1/2" Maxine's Mop $3.47
Loew-Cornell 1/4" Maxine's Mop $2.28
Loew-Cornell 1/4" Ann's Mini Mop $2.63
Loew-Cornell 7400 1/4" Angular $4.12

Studio Tools Crease Brush $??
Purchased from Wal-Mart, couldn't have been more than $3.00 though...

Hope this helps pick some more affordable brushes that still get the job done :)
