    Hi Mel! I am so extremely happy and in shock that you picked these brushes, being part of your favs is such an honour, thank you! I cannot even explain how excited I am, I mean, I almost fainted here! the suspense was intense, but one of the reasons I felt so happy and thrilled to watch this video is because your excitement is contagious, you have so much emotion and passion when you talk about brushes and that's the best!!! Thank you again, sincerely ❤️ PS1: you crack me up every single time... "the Builder Three from Sonia G" I love it 😂😂😂 PS2 : did I say thank you???!!!!!!! Not enough times!!!!

    Hi Mel - I am very excited to watch this video. You have quickly become one of my favorite UA-camrs and I really feel like I have gotten to know your style and trust your opinion. I have been a makeup lover for many years and I have bought my first bronzer. Because I glow in the dark, I have never been bold enough to buy one. I bought the Fenty Beauty (Inda Sun) one and it is beautiful. Could you guide me in what the best brush for this bronzer might be? I'd love to use the bronzer after spending my hard earned money on it but I'm not sure what brush to get. Thank you in advance for your guidance and keep up the great work!

    I love the original Wayne Goss eye set with squirrel hair. So soft and better sizes for my eyes in general. I also use hakuhodo and chikuhodo eye brushes with some Kevin Aucoin thrown in. I have not found a favorite blush brush so will try your recommendations. I use the Linda Halberg brush for bronzer or and old Clinique one. I had lots of Mac brushes that I’ve slowly gotten rid of - too scratchy. I’m into Chikihodo for powder unfortunately and have collected several really expensive fude brushes - but nothing is softer and I only ever use pressed powder and want a very light application. Great vid!

It takes so much work and guts to do what she does, because believe me, if I had the cajones to be a makeup youtuber or any kind of UA-cam channel I would love to, but I’m very nervous to do that because of ppl like YOU that have to give a thumbs down! Really?! For what??! She’s a great person with a great bubbly personality. Did your parents teach you if you don’t have anything nice to say, then just shush! Geez, ppl are so rude and haters. 😤🤬can’t stand mean ppl!

      Yes you need the cheek pro brush!! I was never into smaller blush brushes but that brush has been my favorite of all her face brushes. I literally use it for blush, bronzer (😱) and contouring. Very multifunctional brush

I've only just started getting into makeup as my beautiful niece has started wearing makeup and we have a lot of fun bonding over makeup. I wondered if you are doing a tutorial for the look you are wearing today? I have dark brown eyes as well and I don't see as many looks for dark eyes and fairer skin as I do for lighter eye colours.

  • @nemo5288

    I came back to watch this video once I was ready to buy a couple of higher-end type brushes. Up until now, I have only purchased more on the affordable and generic side. I ADORE YOUR BRUSH VIDEOS! I feel that the knowledge you have of varying techniques, formula types and coupled with that of the different fibres and shapes of brushes, you have upped my makeup game by passing this knowledge on. There really isn't much out there in terms of explaining brushes, fibres, types and techniques (aside from the very basic this is the shape for blending) and I really enjoy when I come across more in-depth info. The only other resource that has improved my brush knowledge was actually Sonia G's blog post about fibre types and what they are good for. Please keep the brush tips and knowledge coming!

    Since you ask 🤣 my ride or die brushes are the Wayne Goss 11 for contour and blending. His 18 & 19 for the eyes and 5 for under eyes. Then can not live without the Scott Barnes 61 for nose contour. There are many in between but these are by far my favs. Loved the video👍😄

    If I could only pick 1 brush in each category, honestly it would be my Scott Barnes brushes. It is a real tough pick between Kelley Quan, Wayne Goss & Scott Barnes, but the Scott Barnes brushes are the ones I reach for most.
    I haven't tried Linda's or Sonia's, but heard great things. Thanks for sharing.

    Oooo could we have an ‘only one’ for the almost totally impossible. Only one highlight, bronzer, blush etc etc down to only one crease colour, only one lid colour etc., that would be spectacular to see just because you enjoy it as much as we do. Obviously things will change shortly thereafter because new products are always landing, but at least for the day you do the video on.

    A brush I love is the Smith 205; a slant brush for powder eyeliner. It’s firm and small enough that it will get right into the lash line, plus it’s thin enough to get precision (for a powder). I use it every day. Plus, for cream and liquid foundation I love the Zoeva 210. I saw Lisa Eldridge using it on more than one occasion so I bought it. Buffs everything right in. How could you pick between Sonia G and Wayne Goss? I have those and I love them all! Haven’t tried Esum. Interesting video. Thanks. Happy Sunday! 💚

    Great vid. Thank you. Love your picks.. now I want that La Mer powder brush 😂
    I have a Morphe powder brush I love, years old now. Sonia G fan pro is my go to highlighter brush as of late, otherwise it’s the WG 2 from his newer face set. I use a WG 16 for my transition e’ry day. Sonia G builder 3 and builder pro have my heart now. I’m still playing w Sonia G face pro set.. Again, great vid!

    Love love love. I need some really good brushes. I have the infamous hooded (I say sagging for me cuz I’m older ) and small eye both. I am thinking of Wayne since he has hooded. But I do love Sona ! I own no luxury. So time to make a decision. Help !! Love you and your makeup is killer.

    I’ve given up on sponges; being 44 now, I just don’t have time haha. My favorite foundation brushes BY far; Cover FX Custom Blending Brush, and IT Cosmetics Heavenly Luxe double ended Foundation and Concealer Brush. You can blend any consistency foundation in less than half the time. My teenage daughter is still a sponge girl, but brushes for me just do the job so much quicker. The makeup brush attachment on my Clarisonic does it even faster 😊😊😊😊
    I’ve been using a MAC 159 synthetic duo fiber for blush and highlighter; and I’ve had the brush for almost ten years, holds up beautifully 🏆🏆
    Would LOVE a video just talking about eye brushes. You don’t use any brushes for foundation at all? I guess not, haha.

    This is a great video on brushes and so appreciated. I've been having a difficult time trying to figure out what would be best purchase of one really good eyeshadow palette for spring and summer looks and if one even exists. I've been saving so I can buy just one highend eyeshadow palette to get me through spring and summer but can't make up my mind considering I am only trying to buy one and I really don't own any palettes with what would be considered spring and summer colors since all of mine are basically neutrals. I am starting to feel more comfortable wearing more color on my eyes and this is also going to be my early birthday present to myself since my birthday isn't until the end of July. I t becomes difficult because I am trying to limit myself to just one .

    Thank you so much for this. I mostly have Chanel and MAC with Smashbox and a few others thrown in. My favorite for least inexpensive is the ELF large powder brush. I want to try some Sonia G in the near future. :)

    I love that you can afford La Mer, Wayne Goss, Sonia G, etc...yet your favorite sponge is still $5 cheaper than a beauty blender and that one is not even in your top 3! It goes to show how overrated the beauty blender sponge is, maybe when the craze started it was the best but a lot of newer and cheaper sponges have surpassed it in quality.

    You are definitely one of the most knowledgeable creators about brushes that I have seen! I have never owned a high end brush...
    Also, ATTENTION to anyone who's been wanting to try out the Ofra Highlighter in Rodeo Drive, I got it in my April ipsy bag, but I already own it and I don't need 2, so I'm GIVING IT AWAY on my channel! Definitely enter b/c my channel is baby and brand new, so not too many people have entered :)

    Great video Mel. I have the La Mer brush and I can’t wait to try it out. A video suggestion, if you have the Soleil Tan De Chanel can you do a tutorial? Jaclyn Hill recommended using the Morphie 439 to apply this bronzer. Thanks so much. Xoxo. Love your videos

    My brush wishlist is from you, and Michelle Wang. I use my Sonia Kashuk Sponges (that I got after watching you use them), beauty blender, and right now I am testing the Juno & Co microfiber sponges, I bought a set of 4 that included the solid cleanser.
