"Must-have" brushes?

[redheadbaker]

I need to replace some brushes, and I'm taking advantage of 15% Ebates at Ulta.

My routine is primer, liquid foundation, setting powder, blush, bronzer, lashes, eyeshadow, brows, lips.

What are your must-have brushes for these steps?

not specific brushes but i love anything by real techniques. they are quality and decent prices.

I really enjoy the It cosmetics brushes for Ulta.

The It Cosmetics #105 eye blending brush is awesome. I love their heart shaped foundation brush but I’m not sure it’s available right now. The Real Techniques blush brush is awesome too.

Real Technique and IT Cosmetic brushes are my go-to. Real Technique's essential sets are great to have and then build from there.

My favorite ever foundation brush is from It Cosmetics, though it's a few years old and they might not stock that exact brush at Ulta anymore. I have yet to dislike an It brush if that helps.

I also have been really happy with the It brushes from Ulta.

I'm slowly replacing all my brushes with It brushes from Ulta, so I recommend those.

I have a similar routine.
I use a liquid foundation brush from Cover fx.
Elf stipple brush for blush
Fan brush from Sephora for highlighter.
The rest is Laura mercier.

I had all Mac brushes at one point but replaced them one by one. They shed worse than any other brush, especially after washing. I really like the cover fx brushes.
