8 Affordable brush brands
Coastal Scents - Majority of their brushes are $1-3. Extremely cheap.. Plus, Coastal Scents always get rave reviews. You wouldn’t expect their brushes to be any less than amazing. As far as I know, these are only available online. Shipping varies depending on where you live - for me it’s about $9.19.
Avon - These are great quality brushes, I myself am in love with the eyeshadow brush. I’ve never had a problem with sheading or anything, plus they are really soft and destribute color evenly. Brushes are usually around $3-$8. You may order these online or through an Avon representative. Online shipping costs are around $5.95.
Mark - The brushes from Mark are actually a tiny bit more pricey than some I have listed; usually about $6-$8 per brush. However, trust me ..they are amazing, and worth every penny. Available online or though an Avon/Mark representative. Online shipping costs are $5.95.
Essence of Beauty - I’ve yet to try any of these, but I’ve heard many great things. One being that they are extremly soft and are great quailty brushes. Expect to pay around $5-$11, depending on the brush. You can purchase these online or at a local CVS store near you. I’m unsure of how much online shipping costs are.
Crown Brushes - I actually heard of these through YouTube by complete accident. Honestly I haven’t heard much about them, but they are definitely worth trying out. Majority of their brushes are around $2 per brush, on their ‘Basic’ series.. Price does vary on different brushes though, and different ’series’ seem to be more expensive. Some go up to around $15. Online shipping is $7.
ELF - Every brush is only $1. I haven’t yet orded any of them, but the eyeshadow brush is a common fave among YouTube beauty vloggers. Shipping is only $6.95, no matter how many items you buy .. though spend $25 and you will recieve a pair of aviator sunglasses; spend over $75 and your shipping is free.
Eco Tools - These brushes are priced at around $4-$9 per brush, yet you can also get sets of brushes for around $11. These are available at select stores such as Walmart, Target, Rite Aid, Walgreens and Ulta. They can be purchased online as well. Shipping costs depend on where you get them. For example; Drugstore.com is around $5.99, which varies by location - but orders over $25 qualify for free shipping.
Sonia Kashuk - These brushes are actually going to be more expensive than any other brand that I’ve listed, however ..these brushes are AMAZING. They are incredibly soft and work great. Around $8-$15 each, depending on the brush. These brushes are available at Target as well as online. I’m unsure of shipping costs.
* Prices I’ve listed are according to what itmes are priced through their own online store. Some items may be available on ebay.com or other online beauty stores for less.
