Hi everyone!
I get asked all the time what some of my favorite makeup brushes are, specifically for the face and a ton of my all time favorites happen to be Drugstore brands.
Let me know in the comments if any of these are your favorites too or if I missed any other good ones from the drugstore.

Hey Nikki! You have killer jewelry. Would you mind posting where you got them and include on future vids? THAT NECKLACE I NEED!!! lol you are my fave MUA. Love your content!

@user-mk6lc2ls2m Год назад

I agree.

My fav drugstore brushes are ecotools. Cheaper than real techniques and I think they have more brushes. Plus you can find them in stores like Ross and tj maxx so even cheaper. I got an 8 pack and it usually comes in trays and tins for storage for about 12 bucks. They’re incredibly soft and they’re my fav cheap eye brushes as well.

@carolsasa3578 Год назад

Please do the eye shadow version, Nikki! Even if don't love drugstore brands for eyeshadow, would love to hear why and what mid-high end alternatives you'd recommend. Thank you!!!!

@samk2377 Год назад

I find that using my cleansing balm or oil, and essentially double cleansing my brushes once in a while gets the stains out so well! That real techniques set is the BOMB. The only thing missing from that set is something a bit finer like a liner brush

@christinemack2153 Год назад

Good to know we don't have to spend a fortune to get great results. Thanks, Nikki!

@moniquelopes6110 Год назад

Real techniques >>>> I also love eco tools their purple sponge is so good

@jomuldoon100 Год назад

Nikki would you please do a video on your favorite high end eye makeup brushes. I need to buy some and I would appreciate your advice.

@peggyfell Год назад

NYX crease brush #16 (black plastic barrel) blends transition / crease wonderfully- I have several brush collections but I always use this one. Hard to beat!

@m.e.5 11 месяцев назад

I’ve been in need of replacing brushes-TYSM! Sonia Kashuk also makes some great brushes! I agree, quality drugstore eye brushes can be hard to come by

@queens6583 Год назад

I have all the Real Techniques brushes by Nic and Sam Chapman. They are all fantastic and the $7.99 setting brush is good for so many things. I often see their brush sets in T.J. Maxx for less than $10 for a set.

@jcurry1125 9 дней назад

I love Sonia Kashuk Essentials Eyeshadow Brushes for applying eyeshadow. I reach for them every time. But I haven't yet found a drugstore blending brush I really love.

@Mallika99 Год назад

Super helpful, thank you!! I‘ve had the Real Techniques brush set since over 5 years now and I looooove it 😊 Can’t wait to try the other ones you mentioned!! ❤️ Love love love anything drugstore and accessible since I’m in my early 20s right now and don’t want to (or more like can’t) spend a fortune on makeup (hoping to be able to afford some expensive stuff soon though hehe but gotta work hard!!) Thanks again Nikki! :)

@DanaLisa10 Год назад

Yes agree that elf brush is great and those real techniques brushes are wonderful. Love a good brush tutorial thx 🙏🏽 Nikki

@jlkitz1775 Год назад

Great video, thank you Nikki! Real Techniques, and e.l.f. brushes are BOMB & SO affordable, they wash well & last for years. Great tips from a great professional MUA ✌🏾😉

@barndi Год назад

Oh man! All these great inexpensive brushes! Now I know what to get if and when I need to replace my MAC brushes! I also love relearning what to use when and for what products. Thank you!

@adriennef7219 Год назад

My favorite drugstore brush is the real techniques multitasking brush I think it was called. It’s so old it’s embarrassing but I use it daily and love it! I’m going to look for that double ended elf one! Thank you!

@irisrodriguez1251 Год назад

Thank you for all your videos keep them coming we are loving them! 💙

@anninapearce6373 Год назад

I need this eyeshadow in my life Nikki! It's so pretty!!

@Ajax2505 Год назад

Thank you so much, I knew I’d love this video! As always super detailed, informative, & affordable options. You are my ideal MUA!

@aymeelevario3445 Год назад

Nikki, thank you sooo much for your review. Coming from you I have no doubt these brushes are awesome. I have tried the double ended Elf brush and it’s really good. Am gonna buy the other complexion brush and use it for my foundation, your opinion definitely convinced me I don’t need to spend a ton of money to get s good brush. Love your videos❤️💙

@carlagomeslucas 9 месяцев назад

Saw this video just in the right time. I actually had in my shopping cart a set of that REAL TECHNIQUES brushes but wasn't sure if they were good. Thank you so much for the review! 💕🦋

@Beauty-mad Год назад

Just paused to say, I have all the original pink RT ones as well as the lighter pink ones. It was originally called the deluxe crease brush. I don’t know anyone who would have used it as a blending out shadows in the crease. But it’s a fantastic concealer etc brush. That shaped one you showed after, they came in a Set of 3 originally in a claret red sort of colour. The biggest one is fantastic for defusing bronzer etc. that medium one is great too for blush I personally find. RT is drugstore but some of their individual ones can be as much as £20+ over here so I don’t tend to get them singularly but definitely in sets!

@jeanettemarie2349 Год назад

I know this is random, but could you do a video on where you get all your jewelry? I love all the pieces you wear! 😍

@victoriawhipple4729 Год назад

Thank you! Very helpful and informative. Always grateful for these type of tips that work and save $$$.

@Lindajen109 Год назад

I love the BH Cosmetic eye brushes!!! They have great sets!! I really have to try the elf brushes, my favourite ones are from NYX

@lunucita5987 Год назад

Great video. Nikki. 😊Thanks. In love with elf and real techniques brushes ♥I will go in search of the profusion brushes

@audreyso1201 9 месяцев назад

I really like the Real Technique brushes, I have the one for concealer and it does the job well. Thanks for this tutorial

@putriapsariraka6875 Год назад

Got all your recommendation face drugstore brush exclude the Profusion. Yes, those brushes are good!! Thanks Nikki, love the video!

@elena-it7xs Год назад

I just love your style and love your videos! Thank you ♥️

@paula6446 Год назад

Love your videos! I have some of the RT brushes and love them - definitely want to find the RT rebel edge!

@anneliesvandervorst7110 Год назад

Love this video. I like Zoeva for eye brushes. Not really drugstore, but kinda affordable and really easy to find (in EU).

@simoneclarke5104 Год назад

My RT & ELF brushes are my absolute favourites💕

@natasharodgers1309 Год назад

Come across your video in such of brushes that won’t break the bank, but I just need to no what lip combo your using it’s stunning

@mainecoonmomma3 Год назад

Great video!!! Thanks for the dupe for the It Cosmetics brush!!! Love it!! ❤

@cristinaiswatching Год назад

Such a good video idea. Ordered a few high end brushes like 4-5 and I think that’s enough spending. Hoping the recommendations are international, on to the video now.

@AndreaRodgers 6 месяцев назад

Love your lip combo in this video!!

@_lorie Год назад

I love the Morphe x Ariel or x Jaclyn Hill eye brushes. Specifically the blending brushes. Morphe also came out with a new vegan line. I haven't purchased one yet, but excited to try it. They are expensive in comparison to ELF, but only $9-10 each. I'm not the biggest fan of there regular line. Quality just is t the same. RT and ELF really shine with their complexion brushes. They are just amazing and last forever.

@kellywatts6227 Год назад

Thank you lovely, I appreciate all your advice and love your channel❤ from Australia 😘

@Stephhhmua Год назад

Great video! I absolutely love Real techniques brushes, the iT cosmetics brush my FAV!! Definitely agree with the elf being a dupe. I've got like 3 of those myself 😅 And it's also a plus for us makeup artists too lol Thank you for sharing 💕

@lavayuki Год назад

I have most of these, I love ELF and RT brushes. Morphe is another brand I like for brushes.

@karlaharvey2623 Год назад

Hi Nikki. Thank you for your recommendations on drug store face brushes. I’ve got the Real Tecniques brush set you showed. I’m on the search for a great eye brush set or individual ones. But know I want more “ high end ones”. I do have slightly hooded eyes with loose skin on eyelids. Which ones do you recommend? Thank you sweetie. Always enjoy your videos.

@Ladydessa Год назад

Super helpful! Thank you for sharing 🥰

@kathieharrop3053 Год назад

I just subscribed to your channel and I LOVE your content and expertise. Great examples, how to’s, tips, etc. Can you help us out in with how you store your brushes, and in particular, duo ended brushes? Thank you.

@lisagoldman287 Год назад

Nikki, great video! Which eye brushes do you like best?

@reginaroza3154 Год назад

I'm a huge fan of Profusion brushes, their eyeshadow brushes are phenomenal too and don't get me started on the eyeshadow formula and cream blushes lol

@BobbieLozano-ee9us Год назад

Great video! Thanks for the tips! Morphe & Profusion have some reasonable eye shadow brushes...

@shey8427 Год назад

Thank you, Nikki 🙏🏼💫✨💞

@danielagentile8049 Год назад

Great video Nikki! I’m interested in the elf duo foundation brush however I’m worried it may not be dense enough. Which brush would you say is denser? Hope to hear from you beautiful💙

@mrs.hopson9426 2 месяца назад

I love Sonia kashuk , real techniques, Sephora, eco tools and CVS have some good brush brands similar to high end.

@allietheparanormaladventurer Год назад

I have 3 of the elf dual ended brushes and 3 of the little buffer real techniques brushes and maybe 2 of the small RT powder brush. Lol. I’m not even a makeup artist just have a brush addiction. I love love love the wet n wild highlighter brush the black one. I have a bunch I use them for everything too. I’m still a ride or die Luxor brush user but they’re so expensive and I love my makeup geek brushes so sad you can’t get them anymore. You should try the wet n wild brush. I’ll update this comment with the actual name when I get home. It’s a life changer

@alyssajennings3046 2 месяца назад

Nikki, Profusion also has an eye brush set. It has 2 of my favorite eye brushes of all time in it. Have you tried them? I would love to hear your thoughts on the set. Especially since you loved the face brushes so much!!

@mechellecee8168 Год назад

@jackieorozco2764 8 месяцев назад

Luxie Beauty and Bdellium tools are soft and I used their eye brushes and eyebrow brush.

@sarahlerner1440 Год назад

So helpful thank you!

@fabianas9124 Год назад

I agree with another subscriber the morphe x Ariel ( they have an eye collection for 40$) and the new vegan brushes by morphe also pretty affordable and they are amazing.. even the JH collection by morphe they are all really good and nowhere near high end prices.. and I don't love the original morphe brushes but these collections have been super good quality 👌

@Ohkeh640 Год назад

I blend my foundation down to my neck and chest area at times what brush would you recommend? Also I need a big powder brush to use bronzer form my neck and chest any recommendations?

Thank you for sharing this

@BuriedTeeth 9 месяцев назад

LOL i came to this video cuz im new to makeup but turns out i already bought most of these!! 🤣 i guess because i am a painter, i had an eye for the brushes that would be best. I love the shapes of the real technique but their bristles are a bit rough and not dense enough for me. For cheap brushes they're great though! The tinyest one is goated.

@erinmyers8603 20 дней назад

@user-ym3gb4fj1u 6 месяцев назад

What do you think about the eye makeup up brushes from colour pop?

@hotfrozenpasta6932 7 месяцев назад

It’s interesting, a lot of people love the real techniques brush (no 200 I think) and I bought it because of good reviews. However I cannot get it to make the foundation look good on my face. I recently did a side by side comparison with a beauty blender on one side and the RT brush on the other. The foundation looked very cakey, patchy and dry on the brush side, while the beauty blender side looked flawless. Do you have any idea why that could be? Any tips would be appreciated. I bought a new brush that I haven’t tried out yet, hoping that it’s gonna be better.

@Ohkeh640 11 месяцев назад

What foundation and shade are you wearing? Can we see your favourite foundation brushes? Like the ones you use on yourself and celebrities?? Love this make up look please do a tutorial I love the warm tones My sigma f80 foundation brush fell apart and the bristles are coming out I need to buy a huge bronzer powder brush as I take my bronzer down my neck and chest area, any recommendations?

@Ohkeh640 Год назад

What bronzer and blush are huh wearing here? I need this look!! Along with the eyeshadows please Highlighter and concealer

@aoyhan5757 11 месяцев назад

Are people with wrinkles supposed to wear makeup? Mature skin does nt go by age. Its the skin thats mature. I see other artists do their moms & because they are 60 & up the artists call it mature skin, but their skin is impeccable! Not 1 wrinkle, loose skin texture etc. I have smile wrinkles, around my mouth and chin, forehead & under eyes otherwise my skin is smooth, normal, light neutral. Im extremely expressive all the time lol. Am i screwed? Oh on top of that im totally blonde blue eyes. My lashes & brows are clear basically. So ive got so much going on. Taking very good care the best makeup. I love it all, but should i ????

@aoyhan5757 11 месяцев назад

That comment was supposed to be in the previous video for q&a damn it lol😊

@EmL-kg5gn 9 месяцев назад

If it’s something you love you should do it!!! When I think of people I know who have beautiful makeup, 2 older women are among the first people that come to mind. One of them often has really bold makeup, coordinated with her equally bold outfits. It suits her personality so well and I can see it really makes her happy! And one of my relatives has a more elegant makeup style which suits her well too. She always looks so put together, and she’s hilarious and very expressive so she must’ve found some way to prevent creasing. Unfortunately I don’t know her secret! But whatever style of makeup you like, I feel confident that there’s a way to adjust it for your skin. It’s okay if it takes time to figure out! You can still have fun learning and trying new things in the meantime. I’m still young but I find Nikki’s videos where she compares all the different kinds of products really helpful. She did one on drugstore foundations not long ago, and I remember there was one she strongly recommended for mature skin. Good luck, I hope you find the advice you’re looking for!

@aoyhan5757 9 месяцев назад

Thanks so much for that. I am having fun and trying everything. Unfortunately I like high end & luxury makeup and skincare. I did buy that foundation she recommended!! It's really good but I think I just found my foundation(I have them all) Tom Ford is working for me so far. But I will use all the others even if I have to start mixing foundation, serums & primers. I just started doing that. I love Nikki. She's the one who got me back into it & I can't stop. I buy everything Nikki recommends lol. I'm practicing every single day. Thanks again for your support. It's so appreciated!! Have a good one. Ps... tomorrow Nikki is live!! 🫶🫶
