Best (affordable) foundation & concealer brushes

Hello, im looking for your recommendations on some decent foundation and concealer brushes that cost no more than £15 a piece. At the moment Ecotools and Boots own brand brushes look ok , but im open to any suggestions!

Thanks

    I like Body Shop brushes best. They often sell nice sets by Revlon etc in TK Maxx which are good value, I recently bought a set of ELF brushes which gets rave reviews but I dont like them, I find them stiff and scratchy.
    Thank you for this site Martin
    The time for change has come
    Good luck for the future
  • I agree with Glowgirl, the body shop brushes are very good. I have the concealer brush. i have two ELF brushes and they are complete rubbish so avoid them! Just checked the boots site and they have a no7 foundation brush for £12.50, the reviews are good too. Pout does a great foundation brush, you may be able to get them on ebay as the brand is sadly no more.

    If you go with Bodyshop then don't forget the current 'Glitch'.....shop online and get all three gifts free, plus 25% off, plus free delivery. Now that's a bargain.

    check the details on Grabit forum

    when Boots run their "spend £5 and get a No7 voucher for £5 off a purchase" promotion (ie just about every 3 months instore) these can usually be redeemed against Ruby & Millie loose make-up brushes (found on the Ruby & Millie make-up counters instore). They get good reviews generally.
