If you want something done right, you’ve got to use the right tools. A no-brainer, right? But because so many roads lead to the same place, sometimes the best makeup brushes can get neglected in favor of whatever you have on hand at the moment. Maybe you’ve kept all the brushes that came with the vintage Naked palettes you bought years ago, and they’ve been fine for now. But, if you’re never that pleased with how your makeup turns out, you need to consider updating your brush rotation.
For most makeup lovers, tracking down brushes is an extremely daunting task. There’s so many options at all different price points—which only makes the decision that much harder. And while it seems like the easiest option is to pick out a brush set with everything you’ll need, that still doesn’t narrow down your choices. Thanks to our own expertise along with the guidance of countless TikTok beauty gurus, we tracked down the very best makeup brush sets to add to your collection. Whether your huge collection of brushes isn’t quite satisfying your needs, or you’re starting from scratch—there’s a set for everyone.
