What the gurus are saying

Sephora's Pro brushes are the ones the gurus keep gushing over, with the affordable Essentials line a surprisingly nice step down in cute cases, though the handles feel a touch less special. The catch is staying power: the coating on the cheaper line can turn grimy after six months to a year. Since they're affordable, tossing foundation brushes that won't come clean isn't a big deal, and they work well as travel brushes.

"I still do really love the Pro brushes, they're worth the hype. You don't have to spend a lot on brushes anymore, I have a lot of more expensive brushes and I don't feel like you need to overspend on Makeup Brushes to achieve a beautiful look."

SEPHORA Sale Recs (that are not in the Epstein files)

What to Get & What to SKIP: Sephora VIB Sale!

"It took about six months to a year, but now if you go into the reviews you'll see some very beat up looking brushes, [...] the coating [...] just gets grimy and disgusting, and I recognized it on these Sephora brushes. So I better not recommend these for long-term use. That said, mine still look good because this is what I use for travel brushes."

*Mindfully* Shopping the Sephora VIB Sale

"I am blown away by the new Sephora Essentials brushes. They're more affordable and come in the cutest cases. [...] The Pro brushes are still a little tiny bit better and I like the handles more, this feels like Nars packaging [...] to me, but if you don't want to spend as much up front, these brushes are surprisingly nice. My one concern is I just can't tell you how they will hold up over time."

"I have used some very fancy and expensive brushes in the past, but now I exclusively buy these brushes from Sephora because they're so much more affordable and they last just as long. If you want to throw them out or replace them if you feel like they're not getting clean anymore, especially foundation type brushes, then it's not that big of a deal to do that because they're so affordable. These are one of my top picks from the Sephora sale."
