Assemble a Makeup Brush Kit
From RealSimple.com here are 8 easy steps to putting together the brushes you need for everyday makeup applications. You don't have to spend a fortune on brushes. In fact I have bought some of my brushes at Target.

1. Pick a powder brush
The powder brush should be soft and fluffy and have a medium dome so the powder is distributed evenly over your face.

2. Pick a blush brush
Your blush brush should have slightly angled bristles and be at least three inches at its longest tip to avoid streaking.

3. Pick a foundation brush
The foundation brush can be used as an alternative to your fingers or a sponge for applying liquid foundation; it should be
flat and have stiff bristles that allow for sheer coverage.

4. Pick a concealer brush
Similar to the foundation brush, the concealer brush should have fine dense bristles that help cover blemishes accurately.

5. Choose two eye shadow brushes
A brush with small bristles should be used to apply shadow; a flat brush to blend the shadow.

6. Pick a brow brush
Tip: In a pinch, you can use a toothbrush to tame your brows.
The eyebrow brush should have a tiny comb on one side and stiff bristles on the other.

7. Pick an angled brush
Used for applying eye liner or for filling in your eyebrows, a thin stiff-bristled brush provides the most precision.

For applying lipsticks and glosses, you’ll need a small dense brush.
