My face as I ponder, do I really need these brushes? The answer is yes, yes I do!
I hope you enjoyed me sharing my current top 10 best makeup brushes. I will have a tutorial for this makeup look soon. My Wayne Goss 8 and 6 brush have been in my top brushes for almost a year (see my original review). You can also check out my Makeup Geek brush review.
For those of you who emailed to ask, Wayne Goss brushes are sold exclusively at Beautylish. That’s where I bought both of my sets of Wayne Goss Brushes (the original set and the eye set).
Trust me, it was hard to narrow it down to just 10 brushes, but since these are the ones I’m using daily, that’s why I chose them. I do have several other great brushes that I just don’t use on a daily basis from Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics (the lip brush, short shader and tapered blending), Urban Decay (optical blurring brush, perversion angled liner brush), Too Faced (teddy bear set), and It Cosmetics.
What are your current must have brushes? Let me know below!

I haven’t tried any of these. Adding to my shopping list.
I love ecotools and I haven’t tried those 2 yet!
I love the teddy bear brush set and I have It Cosmetics on my shopping list
Great review, I am just about to buy a flat eye liner brush, sadly they don’t sell Wayne Goss brushes so they can be shipped to Sweden 🙁 But thanks to your review I will look for a small brush, or get the Laura Mercier one.
I really want to try makeup geek because of your suggestions
Whoo! Thank you for this list!
I love Bdellium Tools. They have a vegan range that’s fantastic. Also Illamasqua has great vegan brushes, I do own a couple of them.
I’m going to have to try Wayne Goss soon. Or start ignoring you when you talk about them. LOL
I’ve never seen that Real Techniques brush!

I think you would love the brushes he created! They’re just such a perfect shape and size! I haven’t found anything comparable! I’m told that Hakuhodo is comparable.

I’m so impressed you picked 10 + a bonus child! I couldn’t narrow it down. I literally felt guilt lol
I just picked the brushes that I literally use every day 🙂
Great picks! I love ecotools 🙂 Do you know of any dupes for Too Faced’s Teddy Bear liner/pencil brush? I’ve been on the hunt for months!
Yes, Wayne Goss makes a dupe and Sugarpill makes a dupe.
Hey Phyrra, I dunno if you covered this in the video (I’m on my phone), but how exactly is a non-vegan brush cruelty free?
I reached out to Beautylish before I bought the brushes to find out if they were cruelty free. I was told that the brushes were cruelty free and the hair was from a cruelty free source. From researching what ‘cruelty free hair sources’ are for brushes, I learned that Shu Uemura, Stila, BECCA, MAC and other brands use hair taken from goats, ponies, squirrels etc and that they are not harmed when it is removed. So I can see why these brushes would not be vegan, but I believe that they are cruelty free.
At the end of the day, since I cannot currently go to Japan and tour the facilities myself, I have to rely on the words of the company that I’ve contacted as to whether or not they’re cruelty free. Goss also addressed the issue in a video and stated that the brushes were cruelty free.
From what I could research, it’s like using wool or lanolin. They’re supposed to be humanely gathered, which makes them cruelty free, but not vegan.
Makes sense, thanks!
