Best affordable makeup brushes


I am impressed. The best affordable brushes I found so far. The brushes come in a beautiful black box. You get 8 brushes with a manual and a small black clutch for the price of £6.99.

They look very professional and feel luxurious. The bristles are soft, and the brushes feel soft on the skin.

The bronzing brush, powder brush, foundation brush, smudging brush, angled brush and lip brush are great, no complaints at all. However, the stippling brush isn’t so stipple. It is more like not so dense kabuki brush, which I will be definitely using to apply my foundation. The contouring brush, according to the manual, is for nose contouring, which is little bit big for that, but it can be perfectly used for blending eyeshadows.

100% recommend!

Maybelline FIT ME! DEWY + SMOOTH FOUNDATION REVIEW

This is a perfect foundation if you want a natural glow and a light, yet buildable, coverage. The price on Amazon.com is just above $5. I love this foundation, especially for colder days when your skin needs more hydration. It’s very easy to blend. You can set it with a powder if you want more mat finish since it stays quite tacky. It is more suitable for normal to dry skin, but I think oily skin can also wear it if combined with a suitable mattifying primer underneath. One of my favorites!

L'Oreal Paris Infallible Pro - Matte Foundation Review



Overall, a GREAT foundation. 
The price is less than $10 on Amazon.com. Matte finish, full coverage and stays very long, most suitable for oily skin. If you have normal to dry skin, try putting a very hydrating moisturizer or primer. I have normal to dry skin and used it with L'Oreal Paris Lumi Magique Primer, a luminous primer, and worked very nice. It blurred out my skin and evened my skin tone. It sets very quickly so you need to blend it immediately and there’s no need to set it with a powder. It’s a nice foundation if you have any events or going on a night out. 
I wouldn't prefer it in winter if you have dry skin, it's more for other seasons when your skin doesn't need to be so moisturized.

L'Oreal Paris Lumi Magique Primer:
This foundation is highly favourable among beauty vloggers on YouTube. They say it's one of the best affordable foundations for oily skin. You can watch their reviews here: LustreLux, saaammage, shaaanxo, Tati, Desi Perkins, LauraLee, pixiwoo, Tati (another one), Manny Mua.
