My brushes, my precioussssssss......
 I do sometimes feel a little like Gollum, given how obsessed I am with brushes. I've been asked to take photos, so here we go.
Note - this includes all my brushes *except* a full set of Laura Mercier brushes that are in my pro kit. Most of the brushes in that kit are duplicated here, so I didn't think it was necessary to take photos of dupes.
Without further adieu.......
Face/Cheek
Face/Cheek/Kabuki
Face/Concealer/Synthetic
Eyeliner/Brow/Synthetic Eye
Eyeliner/Shadow
Eyeshadow/Crease/Misc
(some of these look a bit wonky as they are still wet from being washed)
Hopefully you can see everything OK, I was concerned about making the images too big. If you want to see anything closer, just give me a shout.
Thanks for looking!

 I'll have to pack them up and take a trip out to texas, then.
Yes, I am a bit OCD about them being clean. Believe me, I use them every day! You will notice that I have a MAC #29 from the 90s that is still going strong. Take care of your brushes, and they will last literally forever.

These are from a Bare Escentual kit I received - I think it was a QVC kit. I think the handle colour was specific to the collection - but likely the brushes themselves are available, just with different/standard coloured handles.

Thanks, is it bad I think I like the brush more because of the handle

Re: My brushes, my precioussssssss......
Rachel!! You are my absolute favorite person today...I was sitting looking at your brushes with the long sad face look happening and my dh said, What are you looking at...and I showed him your brushes...He said do you have that many brushes..I said no where near, but I don't really need as many as Rach has...He said do you need more brushes..I said yeah..but I'll just look at Rach's for now...(all sad sounding, with a few sighs here and there ) He said oh ok...
He came back in about 15 minutes and gave me his card and said go buy you the brushes you need baby!  
I love the power of a woman when she has a loving man!
