A great set of make-up brushes is essential for flawless application, smooth blending and a professional finish. Whether you’re a beginner or an aspiring make-up artist, using the right tools can make all the difference!
We spoke to celebrity make-up artist, Taisha Sherwood, an LCBT alumni who has worked with stars like Nicole Scherzinger, to share her top 5 must-have make-up brushes.
Why Investing in Good Make-Up Brushes Matters
You don’t need to spend a fortune to get high-quality brushes, but choosing the right ones makes application easier, blending smoother, and results more polished. Plus, well-made brushes last longer when properly cared for, making them a smart investment.
Pro tip: Clean your brushes regularly to prevent product build up and keep them in top condition!
