Re: Ecotools Brushes
I love eco tools! they just came out with a brush that's very similar to this $52 smashbox one and I love it!
Makeup Brushes Smashbox Face & Body Brush #19 Ulta.com - Cosmetics, Fragrance, Salon and Beauty Gifts
it was $11.99 and its probably my favorite brush ever! Ive been wanting that smashbox one forever and Im so glad I found this.

Re: Ecotools Brushes
The Ecotools blush brush is soooo soft. I do wish the angled brush was a bit denser..its too soft for me to fill in my eyebrows.

I bought it at ulta a few days ago, i searched online for it but I cant find it anywhere. It looks exactly like that smashbox brush. It alot shorter and fatter than the powder brush and is way more denser. If you can find it you need it, its not like any brush ive ever owned! I work at ulta and we just got a bunch of new eco tools brushes and sets in so if you have one near you check it out! I hope that helped, I wish it was online so I could show you!

I love the kabuki!!! It is my favorite powder brush by far. So soft and has great coverage.
To clean it, I usually try to be very careful about rinsing, then I wind a hair elastic around it and hang it upside down to dry. Koren had a video about doing this with kabukis. You put a hair elastic around the brush, unfold two paper clips and stick them in the elastic, then hang the clips over a glass. It works great.
I haven't tried the other EcoTools brushes yet, but I fully intend to!

Re: Ecotools Brushes
i have the roll and it think they're great. i was thinking about purchasing the mineral set as well.
i find them really soft to use and don't mind them being synthetic at all, in fact, as a vegetarian, i prefer it! and these are the best synthetic brushes i've tried so far and not too expensive either!

Let us know how you like the mineral set  I was thinking of picking that one up too...I saw it at target. I want all of their brushes now!
Thanks for the tips on washing the kabuki... Here is that video from Enkore about drying them:

Re: Ecotools Brushes
My Ulta didn't have that new bronzer brush  But I bought one of the 5 piece brush sets and it was like $16.99 at Ulta and then saw the exact same one for $10.99 at Target! All the EcoTools stuff was much cheaper at Target than Ulta FYI

Re: Ecotools Brushes
^They're still a good deal though! I was just kinda mad that I could have saved $7 and a trip to Ulta (and wouldn't have spent another $50 on other random makeup while I was there LOL). Since you work there, you'll have to let me know when they go on sale next

Re: Ecotools Brushes
I love ET brushes, the blush brush is sooo soft and I usually use eyeshading brust as a concealer brush - great for that since it`s so stiff!

Re: Ecotools Brushes
You won't regret it if you buy it! It is pure love! I haven't ever found anything like it at any price!!! It's super soft on your face, yet packs the perfect amount of product! I love the thicker handle too! I am SO GLAD I bought it!
We don't have Rite Aid in FL so I can't help you there  But I did buy mine at Ulta and had a $5 off coupon!

Re: Ecotools Brushes
I own the original 5-piece brush set and the retractable kabuki(AMAZING!)...though I honestly don't need any more brushes, that bronzer brush looks amazing!
