Pictured: the NARS #42 Blending Brush
Happy Tuesday, beautiful brush lover. What are your five favorite makeup brushes best meow? here are mine…
1. NARS #42 Blending Brush
Last year NARS completely revamped their brush line, and this brush, the NARS #42, is already one my favorite brushes of all time. I love it even much more than my beloved MAC 224 (I KNOW!)…

I mean, I still love the 224 (both brushes have similarly shaped heads), but the 42’s bristles are larger and fuller, and I think it actually is better at diffusing and blending color, especially in the crease.
It’s my go-to brush for blending transition colors together, and if I ever reach for it and find that it’s dirty because I forgot to clean it, I freak out a little…
OK, I freak out A LOT. available now for $32 at NARS counters and online.

2. NARS #47 angled eyeliner Brush
I don’t think I could, or at least would want to, line my eyes with anything other than this brush. The NARS #47 draws crisp, accurate edges and defined cat eye flicks like an architect draws plans, and it deftly handles lines of varying width, from thin to thick to semi-skinny — whatev.
You get supreme control over whatever product you’re using it with, and it also diffuses pencil, gel and eye powders perfectly. works great as a brow filler, too. available now for $28 at NARS counters and online.
3. Laura Mercier pony Tail Brush
I am trying very hard to write about this brush without estimating that Ginuwine pony song best now.
It’s so hard, though!
Ride it, my pony…
Anyways, Laura’s pony Tail brush is another fantastic transition shade/crease tool. like the NARS #42, which has a slightly shorter brush head and a less tapered tip, it’s fluffy and full, so any powders you’re scooting around with it in your crease or on your lids blend together beautifully.
I like Laura’s version better for applying transition colors in the lower part of the crease, and I also use it all the time for buffing out under-eye concealer because the tapered suggestion allows me to really get into those hard-to-reach areas in the inner corners and lower lash line. available now for $29 at Laura Mercier counters and online.
4. Sephora pro angled shadow brush #13
On one hand, I feel like I really need to stop stress-shopping at Sephora…but on the other I’m like, “How else would I find gems like the pro angled shadow Brush?”
साथी! What a great stress-shopping find. It’s so easy to perfectly place shadow into the outer corners and lower crease thanks to this brush’s angled shape. At the same time, it doesn’t lay down so much product that I end up having to spend forever and a day buffing. available now for $20 at Sephora and online.
5. Sonia Kashuk Lash & Brow Comb
For me, the largest measure of success for this brow/lash comb combo is the fact that I have yet to poke my eye out with it.
Knocks on wood!

Seriously, though, this collapsable contraption is great. It’s kinda like a pocketknife, which makes it good and portable, but many importantly it gets the job done right. Plus, it costs less than a fancy cup of coffee. available now for $4.99 at Target and online.
