Hi Emily! What perfect timing on your part because I’m sitting here waiting for an appointment and needed something to help me calm down my anxiety and here you are! Always helping me out 🤗 Thank you so much! I also had an idea about buildable makeup: let’s say you had to get ready quickly for something like an event at your kids’ school or a work event but you only have 15-20mins to get ready then later you have a date night or a girl’s night out and don’t have time to redo your whole makeup so you build on what you did before. I believe you have a version of this for when you did the hourglass retouching fluid review. Anyway, just a thought I had because I’ve had this happen to me. Hope you’re having a fantastic day!! ☀️
Aw I'm glad to be here! And YES that happens often!! And it seems to be especially necessary this time of year when the heat & humidity requires a little extra touchup! Great idea!
My favorite drug store brushes are Real Techniques and Eco Tools. However, over the last few years I have slowly replaced all of them with BK Beauty brushes during their Mother's Day and Black Friday sales. I realized that the amount of money I was spending of trying different low cost brushes added up to the same or more and just getting the higher end brushes and sticking with them. It's been a gift to myself twice a year to get a few more brushes and it's been fun to collect them. The Angie set has been great for me as I have hooded eyes and they are smaller. You are my favorite YT'er and I SO look forward to your videos!
For when the black ends of your RT brushes get "gummy", rub some cotton pad doused in rubbing alcohol! it'll get rid of the gummy film and it'll just become smooth plastic again :) it works for anything that has that texture! i did it for my Wet brush once too
I fixed my hot tools curling iron that way .. totally removed the gummy rubberized texture. It looked kind of ugly, but didn’t have to throw away my curling iron.
@EmilyNoel, I still have my essence of beauty brushes that I bought off of your recommendation. After all these years, you have never steered me wrong!!! 😊
You want a perfect dupe for a beauty blender? Sponge hair rollers. Best part is that it is a lot easier to hold and clean because of the hole in the center. Also I got my favorite brushes from Kroger. They don’t sell them anymore. When you buy elf brushes just go to the hardware section and get some super glue. When it comes apart just glue it back together.
I wanted to let you know that you make a huge impact on my day! I love how positive you are and that you love makeup as much as I do! Thank you for being you 😍
Same here with the real techniques setting brush. The rubbery end has gotten gummy on me, too, I gross out every time I touch it so I guess I’ll take the end off. 🙂
Thanks for going through all the brushes you use and for what, I always feel the brushes I use are not the right one for what I need, but can't figure out what to use instead. This is very helpful for rediscovering how to use what I have.
I literally SCOURED your videos to find this one because I desperately needed help with figuring out which brush was best for each item, after going through so many not-so-great brushes and having my application look muddy or patchy. (Or it was a good brush, but I was using it wrong lol) You’re the only influencer I trust, thank you for always being so thorough and for being someone who encourages using affordable products! I’ve followed you for almost 10 years now (around the time I started REALLY getting into makeup) and you’ve basically molded my entire outlook on makeup lol I can’t believe I never actually paid attention to which brushes you’ve been using. I guess I was so focused on the products themselves. Every time I’m curious about a product or something new comes out, I know to come here first! 😂 Anyways, thank you for helping this newbie all those years ago to not be intimidated or overwhelmed by the massive and over-saturated world of makeup! And if I haven’t seen a video of a certain thing yet, I know I can scour through again and eventually find it 😅 and I know I’m definitely not the only one who’s so thankful for your channel. The fact that you don’t have 10 million+ subscribers is honestly a crime. Much love! 💕
The rubbery bottom part of my Real Techniques brush got all sticky, too. I covered the whole bottom part with Scotch transparent tape and voila! No more stickiness to deal with! And the transparent tape gives me a shiny, smooth bottom to hold.
Hi, Emily. I'm back watching you after many years away. What I'm happy about coming back is that I'm seeing you still recommending great products that you were using then. Watching other make up channels and following trends, I sometimes feel guilty that I'm using the same products over again when there is so much new stuff out there. Thanks for easing some anxiety. Nothing wrong with tried and true products.
Thank you for taking the time to explain the size, shape, and function of each brush. You have helped me to make use of more of the brushes in my collection. You are so educational and very helpful. Thank you, Emily.
I have to watch this tomorrow, I barely know what any brushes do other than shapes I see them use. I need an affordable set or at least a few key brushes I use most
Hi, Emily, Sally’s Beauty has some fantastic brushes that are around ten bucks and remind me of It Cosmetics brushes. I got two of the foundation brushes. They’re great! Love your channel!
Hello My Beautiful Friend Emily I already bought all the brushes you use. I always read the description box of your videos and buy from there. Sending love to you and your family
@@emilynoel83 I love them! I also bought a full set from Shop Miss A. They’re phenomenal sets for $10! Shop Miss A has great products. I stick with AOA, it’s the in house brand. I would love to see a video of you trying some Shop Miss A products
My favorite tool is the Sonia Kashuk lash comb. It takes care of any mascara clumps that might develop during application if I get a little heavy-handed :) :) I'm always a fan. Thanks for sharing!
I so appreciate your content, Emily! I love not only what you share, but HOW you share it. You have a way of putting your thoughts into words so beautifully! I wish I had half of your savvy and use of expression!! Thank u for all your down to earth personal shares as well. I'm much older than you, but truly enjoy learning from your channel. Keep shining that light girl!!!!
I bought the ELF Highlighting brush to use for highlighter and the Real Techniques 402 Setting brush for setting powder. I like them better now that I switched their use per your recommendation! I have collected so many random eye brushes from various places that I get lost trying to find what I need. I may need to just put them in a drawer away from my reach and see if I have any that match or are similar to the five you just used because I've never had an eye look come together as quickly as you just accomplished that beautiful look! I do not have the ELF Complexion Duo brush, but I use the RT 200 Expert Face Brush for my foundation product as well as my concealer and I also use the RT 300 Deluxe Crease brush to work my concealer into the smaller places as well. I got a RT brush set on Amazon for around $12 or something and it's great! Thanks for your thorough and detailed explanations as always! :)
Loved this video❣️I recently splurged on some Rephr eyeshadow brushes but it still find myself using my Elf and Eco Tool brushes more.However, during a huge sale of BK Beauty, I purchased some of their face brushes, and I am so impressed by their quality!!!! I do have to admit that my most used brushes are Eco Tools and Elf!!! I use my more high end brushes for my more glam looks. If I had the money, I would definitely buy everything from BK Beauty❤️ But Elf really rocks their game when it comes to brushes and their sponges!!! My fave eyelash curler is the Rephr! It is the only one that grabs all of my lashes as I have more almond shaped eyes.
Omg I need that Sephora 56, although it's difficult getting Sephora products in the UK! I imagine you've already tried it, but the ELF Putty Brush works absolutely amazingly for thicker cream blush. It blends edges amazingly well.
I recently picked up a Colourpop eye brush set (from Ulta's website) that basically covers all the same bases. 2 sizes of fluffy blending, one smooth flat packing brush, one smaller fluffier packing brush, a pencil brush, and an angled liner. I am loving it, and it was only $16 for the set.
I really agree with your brush choices! I use the RT setting brush under my eyes, and I also use alot of Moda brushes, one highlighter, and a couple eye brushes, along with profusion....my new favorite brush is the BK Beauty A506, for concealer...it is so perfect! Love you Emily!!💛
Hey Emily! Love your recommendations! I've been using e.l.f. and EcoTools brushes forever! I've recently found some Sigma brushes at TJMaxx or Marshalls for $8. to 10. each; the angle-cut Kabuki and angle-cut mini-Kabuki brushes are quite a treat for me, great for blending creams or powders; glad I bought two of each! I also picked up a BH Cosmetics shadow blender for $6. or 7., wish they had another one! But my all-time favorite is a short-handed Nat Robbins blush brush I bought probably 30 years ago; I can't remember where, but it has natural hair bristles with a wooden handle, travel size I guess, it always fits into my small purse-sized makeup bag. It's just indescribable! Anyway, thanks for your tips and tricks! PS sometimes I use a disposable sponge-tipped applicator for concealer on my sun spots, I find it works better than a brush. Well, thanks for sharing your expertise!
Thanks for the awesome video. Another option that I enjoy is using the Elf Powder Blurring brush for bronzer. 😘 Also, I warm my eyelash curler up slightly with a blow dryer (only 1-3 seconds) to help with curling.
I really love BK Beauty's Angie H & F concealer brush. Really nice, perfect size for getting in around your eyes and spreading concealer out. Love your videos!!
Em, i would love to see a video on full face using cream products all in one pallet. Something that can be done quick and simple, I’m a busy mama and would love to see your take on this ❣️
I love reading your thoughts at the end of your info box! Wayne Dyer is one of my favorites. And not packing a lot into every day, but just enjoying the little things is awesome! 💜💜💜
Dollar general has really good brushes. They are by Believe Beauty. Don't snooze on those. My Dollar General has really stepped up.I can get coffee ,bananas, frozen pizza, and ice cream, and makeup. I love it.
I didn’t watch you yet when you used those essence of beauty brushes, but I have had them since high school and still love them and own and use the same original ones all this time later! (I’m 33 now). Some of the best under eye brushes!
Love seeing the photos & vids of your kids playing & enjoying themselves & each other. And you enjoying them. So sweet. It’s true - the simple things done together are what they will look back on & remember with such warmth when they are older. Everyone is more relaxed when you’re not dropping a bundle of dough on a special event. Plus, there’s no place like home. And the hood. Enjoy all these precious moments. You’re a great Mom! XOX
I got the Shisedo eye lash curler based off your recommendation. I had been through so many lash curlers and nothing compares to that Shisedo lash curler! Well worth the splurge!
The ELF small tapered brush was a good one, but a couple good replacements that I love are the Wet n Wild P65/Precision Setting brush (their nicer Pro brush line is lovely) and the Sephora Pro 79/Pro Contour brushes. I love the Sephora one so much I have 2 of them! They aren't quite as pointed, but are still great at getting powder right where you want it, including the undereye. Highly recommend both!
I have about 3 of the crease brushes you used--love them so much. Soft, and they don't lose their shape. Actually, I really enjoy all of my Profusion brushes. Thanks for the video--you are the best. Just a thought. I really miss your random vlog type videos. Especially the ones with the fam. :-)
I LOVED the Essence of Beauty brushes you’re talking about!! I was thinking I had gotten mine at CVS yearssss ago, but it probably was Walgreens! Perfect sized!!!!
I remember getting that same red Sephora brush as a birthday perk that year & I’ve held onto it & used it in the exact same ways you have. Who knew I’d be using it for cream blush & contour one day when back then I didn’t even know what those things were? Thank you so much for this video. I was able to name each brush before you picked it out but it is so interesting to see how we can each use the very same brush for very different purposes. Loving your look as always! 💜
I know forsure she's not fibbing i have EVERY brush she's ever used in here including the mini Sephora red brush. Lol..💖💖💖 I think #EmilyNoel says it's the mini to the full size 56 #Sephora brush. I also have the amazing #BKBEAUTY brushes . The #ElfCosmetics brushes #REALTECHNICS brushes 😍 I love all my brushes I've bought from watching you use them. I even bought about 10 of those #Elfsmalltaperedbrushes before those was gone. I'm shocked they stopped making those. That's unreal they are great brushes. Each brush Emily uses is just as good as the most expensive. I love them all. Thanks Emily.
Em that's too funny. I remember looking for the ELF small tapered brush some months back on your recommendation, and upon being unable to find it I picked up their highlighter brush instead because it looked similar. Works like a charm! Every time you mention your small tapered brush I think of that one and wonder how it compares, because I use it almost every time I do my makeup.
Hi Emily! Was having a rough testing day with the med lab scientist program I’m in but your videos always are such a relaxing and cozy little bit of time I can spend away from the world. Also! Eco tools have some great brushes that I own, one that might fit the bill for a dupe for the face contour brush is one by eco tools called precision blush brush, great little tapered brush
Somebody just set off a firecracker wow !!! I have purchased most of the brushes you have because of your videos, you taught me how to use makeup brushes. 💄 Thank you.
What do you think is the lifespan of the average brush? Do you use them until they start shedding? Or do you just declutter every so often like with makeup?
What a great video, Em! Thank you. You are the most thorough UA-camr I have ever seen when it comes to describing what products and tools you use in your GRWM videos. Your lists and links are epic! Keep up the great work! Love you too! ❤️❤️❤️
Hi Em! Loved this video. It helps me personally especially eyeshadow brushes. I have purchased a few that you use and I was not disappointed. I love the Elf duo brush. The small end does really well getting in the corners of my face. Your great Em! I love the way you share your family with us. It is very sweet. Love you! 💜💜💄💄💯💯
Great video! I love that you included so many affordable, accessible brushes! I also enjoy the Moda and BH Cosmetics (when I find them at Marshalls) as I just can't bring myself to spend a lot on a single brush!
Enjoy every second with your babies while they are little! My 3 kiddos are 16, 15, and 12. I'm lucky they still enjoy hanging out with their dad and me but I'm painfully aware that the time we have left with them as "kids" is limited so I treasure it.
So very true😔 My daughter is 27, my son is 22, I'd give anything to have that time back...goes by way too fast. I'm glad you are aware and enjoying every moment💛
Elf brushes, real techniques brushes and Eco Tools brushes are great affordable brushes that are found pretty easily in most drugstores (Walgreens, Rite Aid, CVS) as well as Target and Walmart. I really enjoy Juvia’s Place brush sets when they’re on sale! 🔥 I don’t own BK beauty brushes but I’ve sure heard a lot of great things about BK brushes! Love ♥️🥰 learning about different makeup brushes that are new or new to me!
Emily! I (along with your beauty broadcast squad) still use my beloved essence of beauty eye brushes thanks to you! I have watched you from the very beginning and still trust your recs to this day. One of my new favorite beauty finds has been the Stansout Beauty Sponge...perfect for lazy days cuz u can use it dry!! U must try it!!
Hi Emily, I have a memory of you talking about maybe getting a cat. Did that ever happen? The shelters are overrun with kittens this time of year. I just thought I would put it out there for you, or any of your subscribers that might be contemplating adopting a cat or a dog. As always, I look forward to and enjoy you videos. Stephanie
Hi All !! The Morphe M709 ($7) & Beautylish's UNIT 112 ($6) brushes are amazing dupes for the Smith 253 & the Smith 256 arrowhead lay down shadow brushes that sell for nearly $25 a piece!!! Have a gr8 summer every1 :) (edit: i just got to the part where you mention the M709...that was gr8!!! LOL)
I have a lot of makeup brushes lol my favorite makeup brushes is its cosmetics makeup brushes I have a makeup brush that's kind of similar to that elf makeup brush it's double-ended foundation on one side concealer on the other side I reached for just about every single day I paid $50 for it at Ulta beauty and now they it's cosmetics double-ended powder and contouring on one side brush you can use it for highlighting and bronzer and one of my favors is a it's cosmetics loving love beautiful lip tracker retractable lip brush .
That Shisedo eyelash curler was a game changer for my super straight, short eyelashes. Paired with the Sculpted Volume Lash Princess (also your recommendation) I’ve been going without falsies! Thanks Em for your great content! 🫶🏼👏🏼💕
Hi Emily! What perfect timing on your part because I’m sitting here waiting for an appointment and needed something to help me calm down my anxiety and here you are! Always helping me out 🤗 Thank you so much! I also had an idea about buildable makeup: let’s say you had to get ready quickly for something like an event at your kids’ school or a work event but you only have 15-20mins to get ready then later you have a date night or a girl’s night out and don’t have time to redo your whole makeup so you build on what you did before. I believe you have a version of this for when you did the hourglass retouching fluid review. Anyway, just a thought I had because I’ve had this happen to me. Hope you’re having a fantastic day!! ☀️
Aw I'm glad to be here! And YES that happens often!! And it seems to be especially necessary this time of year when the heat & humidity requires a little extra touchup! Great idea!
@@emilynoel83 yes!! Things melt away or rub off and sometimes can be fixed with just a little product here and there but I need some tips!! 🙏
Love this video idea!
No worries Bee. Faith ❤️☮️
Wow, I can so relate to how you were feeling before an appt. I have massive anxiety and I use videos I tape to help me (and a xanax) =)
My favorite drug store brushes are Real Techniques and Eco Tools. However, over the last few years I have slowly replaced all of them with BK Beauty brushes during their Mother's Day and Black Friday sales. I realized that the amount of money I was spending of trying different low cost brushes added up to the same or more and just getting the higher end brushes and sticking with them. It's been a gift to myself twice a year to get a few more brushes and it's been fun to collect them. The Angie set has been great for me as I have hooded eyes and they are smaller. You are my favorite YT'er and I SO look forward to your videos!
For when the black ends of your RT brushes get "gummy", rub some cotton pad doused in rubbing alcohol! it'll get rid of the gummy film and it'll just become smooth plastic again :) it works for anything that has that texture! i did it for my Wet brush once too
@kunn....Yes, me too. Then I add a tiny bit of oil (mineral is best) to make it stay nice longer.
I fixed my hot tools curling iron that way .. totally removed the gummy rubberized texture. It looked kind of ugly, but didn’t have to throw away my curling iron.
Why didn't I think of this?!? 🤦🏽♀️ Thx Ladies!! 🙌🏽
Second the decreased scheduling Emily! When I think back inmost remember and cherish the “ordinary moments “…. Those are the ones I miss 💛
@EmilyNoel, I still have my essence of beauty brushes that I bought off of your recommendation. After all these years, you have never steered me wrong!!! 😊
You want a perfect dupe for a beauty blender? Sponge hair rollers. Best part is that it is a lot easier to hold and clean because of the hole in the center.
Also I got my favorite brushes from
Kroger. They don’t sell them anymore.
When you buy elf brushes just go to the hardware section and get some super glue. When it comes apart just glue it back together.
I wanted to let you know that you make a huge impact on my day! I love how positive you are and that you love makeup as much as I do!
Thank you for being you 😍
That is so cool! Thank you so very much!!
You’re welcome 😊
I love the Ecotools Interchangeables. I also love the Real Techniques setting brush for my undereyes.

I remember looking for the ELF small tapered brush some months back on your recommendation, and upon being unable to find it I picked up their highlighter brush instead because it looked similar. Works like a charm! Every time you mention your small tapered brush I think of that one and wonder how it compares, because I use it almost every time I do my makeup.
Hi Emily! Was having a rough testing day with the med lab scientist program I’m in but your videos always are such a relaxing and cozy little bit of time I can spend away from the world. Also! Eco tools have some great brushes that I own, one that might fit the bill for a dupe for the face contour brush is one by eco tools called precision blush brush, great little tapered brush
Hope you did well!
Somebody just set off a firecracker wow !!! I have purchased most of the brushes you have because of your videos, you taught me how to use makeup brushes. 💄 Thank you.
This lady has admirable integrity. Respects.
What do you think is the lifespan of the average brush? Do you use them until they start shedding? Or do you just declutter every so often like with makeup?
Your best videos for me are when you have a focus or a goal. I appreciate your honesty and reciprocate your passion for beauty!
What a great video, Em! Thank you. You are the most thorough UA-camr I have ever seen when it comes to describing what products and tools you use in your GRWM videos. Your lists and links are epic! Keep up the great work! Love you too! ❤️❤️❤️
The best eye lash curler is the equate brand from Walmart and it comes with plenty of extra pads
Yay! Thank you so much Em for this video! 🙌🏻 🥰 I always check your product lists but I’m going to save this video for reference too!
Oh yay!!! So happy to see this video!!! ❤️ Love you so much, Em!!
Absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!
So enjoyed this video. Great job in explaining how you use each brush. Very thorough.
Hi Em! Loved this video. It helps me personally especially eyeshadow brushes. I have purchased a few that you use and I was not disappointed. I love the Elf duo brush. The small end does really well getting in the corners of my face. Your great Em! I love the way you share your family with us. It is very sweet. Love you! 💜💜💄💄💯💯
Ive had my elf tweezers for 10 years and they still work great.
Great video! I love that you included so many affordable, accessible brushes! I also enjoy the Moda and BH Cosmetics (when I find them at Marshalls) as I just can't bring myself to spend a lot on a single brush!
Well done regarding your summer goals with your kids! Happy memory-making to you!!
Awesome video! Thank you so much for all the education you give us ! You are such a joy to watch. And you always make it fun
I really appreciate you. Keeping it cost effective with no compromise on quality
I've been on an emily video binge today hahaha
Essence of Beauty brush duo: I bought them on your recommendation back in the day and I still have them and use them!
Thank you so much for this video!! Brushes are always a bit of a guessing game for me. This helps so much. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much for this video. I really needed this!
I love your content, from one Emily to another
Enjoy every second with your babies while they are little! My 3 kiddos are 16, 15, and 12. I'm lucky they still enjoy hanging out with their dad and me but I'm painfully aware that the time we have left with them as "kids" is limited so I treasure it.
So very true😔 My daughter is 27, my son is 22, I'd give anything to have that time back...goes by way too fast. I'm glad you are aware and enjoying every moment💛
FYI - I found the ELF small tapered brushed in store at Old Navy. I picked up the four they had!
Thanks Emily for such a helpful video!!!
Wonderful! Thanks for the info! Love you Emily!
This was so helpful. Thank you for sharing 🥰
Elf brushes, real techniques brushes and Eco Tools brushes are great affordable brushes that are found pretty easily in most drugstores (Walgreens, Rite Aid, CVS) as well as Target and Walmart. I really enjoy Juvia’s Place brush sets when they’re on sale! 🔥 I don’t own BK beauty brushes but I’ve sure heard a lot of great things about BK brushes! Love ♥️🥰 learning about different makeup brushes that are new or new to me!
Thank you ‘Em, I absolutely loved this tutorial ❤️
Hope you are have a wonderful week! Always love your videos.
Emily, You truly are so good at what you do. Videos like this are invaluable. Thanks you! 😀
Emily! I (along with your beauty broadcast squad) still use my beloved essence of beauty eye brushes thanks to you! I have watched you from the very beginning and still trust your recs to this day. One of my new favorite beauty finds has been the Stansout Beauty Sponge...perfect for lazy days cuz u can use it dry!! U must try it!!
I can give a 5 star vouch for all these! Greatness! Happy Thursday! Brooklyn
You are such an inspiration
When you watch all of Emily’s videos and guess correctly what she’s going to choose lol ❤️
Such a great idea for a video. So helpful to me.
So happy to see this. Thanks.
Thanks Lori!
I've had the shiseido eyelash curler for 8 years now, I buy the extra bands and change them every 6 months or so. It's the best eyelash curler ever!
Another video shared to Twitter! I hated to see such a great channel dip below 1 million! You are awesome!
This was so helpful! Thank you so much 😊
I'm so glad! Thanks Carolyn!
Love these brushes!
Omg I loved the elf eyelash curler then I went to tweezer man from you and now I have Shishedo because of you. Loved all of them. Lol
Hi Emily,
I have a memory of you talking about maybe getting a cat.
Did that ever happen?
The shelters are overrun with kittens this time of year.
I just thought I would put it out there for you, or any of your subscribers that might be contemplating adopting
a cat or a dog.
As always,
I look forward to and enjoy you videos.
Stephanie
Me 🙋♀️ I used the essence duo brush set because of you back in the apt days 😂 and surprisingly I still have those brushes. Got them at CVS..
Hi All !! The Morphe M709 ($7) & Beautylish's UNIT 112 ($6) brushes are amazing dupes for the Smith 253 & the Smith 256 arrowhead lay down shadow brushes that sell for nearly $25 a piece!!! Have a gr8 summer every1 :) (edit: i just got to the part where you mention the M709...that was gr8!!! LOL)

Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I appreciate you so much.
I still have both of my essence of beauty crease brushes 😊💜
That Shisedo eyelash curler was a game changer for my super straight, short eyelashes. Paired with the Sculpted Volume Lash Princess (also your recommendation) I’ve been going without falsies! Thanks Em for your great content! 🫶🏼👏🏼💕
I still have and use my Essence of Beauty brushes that I got thanks to you!!!
Profusion lip liners and brushes don’t get talked about enough. Thank you for the video.
