These brushes are part of the ELF line sold at Target, and they sold for a whopping $1 a piece. Considering that I can’t get anything with bristles at a mall makeup counter for less than $30, that’s a pretty massive savings. The powder brush is pretty coarse, but the eyeshadow brushes are so great I actually prefer them to my expensive ones. So I keep the powder brush as backup, and then stock up on enough eyeshadow brushes that I can actually blend without just putting on yesterday’s color. What a luxury.
ELF has a lip primer/plumper for $3 (primer on one side, cinnamon plumper on the other) that I *love* and a makeup sealer for the same that keeps lipstick from winding up on my teeth (big teeth means I *always* have lipstick on them).
