MAC brush composition

I'm going to check the Michael's tip...that's great!

I have a couple Elizabeth Arden brushes I bought YEARS ago and they're still wonderful. I don't know if they still make it, but I have a red-handled brush that was at least then labeled as sort of an all-purpose/blush brush, and then I have a long handled one. Beautiful thick hair/fiber/whatever with nice sturdy wooden handles. No shedding. I made my mom get one of the red-handled ones way back, because I love it so much, so I know I can probably steal hers if I feel I have to have a spare. They're just the best, and my world would temporarily collapse if I opened my makeup drawer & that red handle wasn't there! At least till I could get to my mom's house.....

Oh yeah, you know what? I found some brushes I like at Walgreens. I got 2 double-ended brushes, one has a regular end and a wedgy-shaped end which is excellent for my creases, although it's not a typical flat, straight angle brush, it's a little poufy. But it's really good!!! I haven't tried the bigger brushes, like for blush, in that line, but for some inexpensive stuff it's worth a look or trying at least one of them. I really like the double-end one with the slanted poufy brush a LOT! And I think I even found it on sale for like $4 and something, or maybe even less. They're hanging with all the nail clippers, fake nail area of the stuff hanging on the wall, at least at the Walgreens around here.
