I'd definitely love to see an affordable brush review! Especially looking at the wet and wild brushes (because I've seen so many of them at Dollar Tree for a buck). And personally, I'd like to see how affordable and higher end brushes compare to eachother

I've gotten all the WNW brushes I've seen at Dollar Tree! I really like them, but I go for a more diffused, natural look. Not a makeup artist in the least. Lol

I love those Wet-N-Wild brushes, especially for a buck! E.l.f. also makes really good & affordable brushes. Those two brands make up about 90% of my brush collection.

not worth it. The wet n wild flat brushes are scratchy and hurt my eye, the fluffy brushes don't blend out eyeshadow nicely. I only kept the fluffy face brushes those are alright *shrugs*

Marnie, I'm in the same boat. I encourage you to check out the Studio AOA brushes from shopmissa.com ($1 each, but great quality synthetic brushes). Domestic shipping from Texas is less than $4. I've found the eye brushes from Essence are also excellent & are around $2 each at Ulta (plus sometimes there is a BOGO half-off sale). I have not been disappointed with either of these brands. If you have a Dollar Tree near you, you might check for Wet n Wild brushes there. I have quite a few & have enjoyed those as well. 😊

definitely give AOA brushes a shot! I love the f19, and the pink eyeshadow bundle, i also love their contour and blush brushes. The wet n wild studio pro brush line or whatever it’s called is great, and i love the real techniques blush brush for bronzer

*You are KILLING IT with the video’s lately! I love that you are uploading a lot more.* I don’t know if it’s too much but it would be nice if you listed the brushes on the screen as you’re using them in a tutorial. It makes for a good screenshot to see the brush name and how it’s being used! 😊

Omg! you talking about your nostrils being uneven! 'i had no idea, thank you for pointing out my flaws" I DIED! Love this video though jess! will have to purchase some cause your recommendations on everything so far have not let me down! xxx

Milly C me too. I’d never noticed until this video! Been watching (and subbed) her since she began.

I may have a solution to the "peach fuzz" hair on the face. I'm going to be 59 years young and my fuzz has "matured" to thicker hair. I was so tired of shaving my face and tried the Flawless Finish. (CVS sells it as does Walmart) I swear it was sent by the angels above! It comes in the small eyebrow trimmer (I haven't tried that one), a single "blade" (love it) and one for legs with 4 "blades" (ahhhh!). I use the 4 blade on the large sections of my face followed by the 1 blade for the smaller areas like the temples, upper lip etc. Done in less than 1 minute. Love them so much, I had to share.

Donna Steinleitner does it leave your face feeling stubbly?

@donnasteinleitner7119

5 жыл бұрын

No. I apply my Neutrogena moisturizer and my face is soft as a baby's butt. I think the hair grows in softer because the hair removal isn't harsh on the skin like using a blade or razor and the moisturizer isn't battling abused skin.

Really enjoyed this review, Jessica. It felt like I was sitting with my best friend, who loves makeup brushes as much as I do, and we spent a lovely winter afternoon with all our favourites out on the table. You have such a great laugh, too. Thanks for all your work.

Jess I love it when you let your natural hair texture shine. Loved this video btw

Oh man those workouts are paying off! Your face looks more angular and you've got that healthy skin glow! Also, Ecotools has such high quality and affordable brushes 😊

Yes! So happy you're testing Sonia Kashuk brushes! I loved the older brushes, before they revamped the line and am now getting the newer brushes, which are now all synthetic. I'm liking them so far. I have more Sonia brushes then any other brand. They have so many shapes and styles that I just love. I have way too many brushes, but I am still gonna get more. I cant help it. Addicted!

Your sense of humor cracks me up every time!! Thanks for sharing your favorites!

You look gorgeous in this video- hair, makeup, and sweater! Also so excited for a video about brushes!!!!

Yes on the best affordable drugstore brushes video!! You are hitting it out of the ballpark with your videos lately!!❤️

The Revlon tweezers are so great! Hair don’t slip from the grip which is always my biggest complaint with tweezers.

Omg, I had to stop the video because I was laughing so hard about the five people and bacteria. That was freakin hilarious 🤣 💜

Your videos are making me wanna buy soooo many beauty products. I am so obsessed with your videos! You’re my go to for recommendations & reviews!

Would LOVE to see one on drugstore brushes! Also loved your rants on people judging you, you are great, you do you!

I love that you put those who critique on notice!! LOL

Thank you for the in-depth brush info! Another video about affordable brushes would be wonderful. You are looking extra pretty!

Thank you for including us! 💖😍Our brushes are extremely versatile! We love using our 522 and 660 for soooo much too!

Your foundation here matches you so well. I think it’s a big part of why your makeup looks so flawless here. It’s not yellow toned like some of yours can be but it’s neutral/cool-toned. Jess, you look amazing, youthful and radiant!

Whatever makeup you used in this video is gorgeous!! Your skin looks great and that eyeshadow color is so flattering. And your eyelashes look amazing!!

Love your makeup here! I also have that IT Cosmetics French boutique blush brush and loooove it. I think it's actually my favorite brush in my collection. So soft, and I think it's pretty, too!

I bought that It Cosmetics french boutique brush after watching you talk about it in a video, and it has fast become one of my very favorites. I'm so glad you recommended it.

You look gorgeous! Loving your makeup in this video. And, LOVE the long videos! 😘😘😘 Also, thank you for this video!! You put so much effort and detail into it and it shows.

Yes, please also do a drugstore brush version too. Thank you for all your hard work. Your cheek bones look very chiseled today. It looks good on you!

There is nothing better than a long video from Jessie. I got so excited when I saw 40 minutes. I love your little tangents.

Do this makeup look as a tutorial!! Love the colors!!

Thank you for this video! Was curious about your brushes and i need to invest in some new. Great descriptions and info. Always love your vids☺️

I always love when you wear your natural curls!! So gorgeous 😍

Omg. 3 seconds into the video and I’m obsessed with your hair & makeup look for today!!!!!!!!!

Wow your makeup and hair look incredible - the highlight is stunning

I would sooooo watch the strictly affordable brush recommendations. ballin on a budget here

Jess your makeup looks ESPECIALLY glowy and gorgeous today. I would love a natural tutorial on this makeup.

Yes can you please do affordable makeup brushes!! Especially because I really want to know what the best affordable eye brushes are. None of us wash our brushes everyday and I need some good eye brushes do do a bunch of different looks with! Much love ❤️

So happy to see this video🙂I have been wanting to see your favorite brushes❤️

I love your look in this video! I love the sweater plus the eye makeup and the lip color, even your hair style. You just look so cute! good job.

Aw Jess, you're so cute, I love watching your videos! Laughed so hard when you were talking about body bronzing and you said "I wish I had the time to, or care to ".

I love my Revlon tweezers!!! They come in a few cute colors, they don’t open super wide but they are kind of sharp-ish so I’ve never had a problem tweezing my brows.

loved how you look in this video!! you always look stunning, but this time’s like wow.

You are so real and honest! You’re wonderful

Thank you for this one, Loved it! Also, your hair, makeup, sweater...so pretty today!!!😊

I love videos like this where your just explaining stuff.I love all your videos but in this type video you can just really see your true personality! Its very refreshing. I don't know if anyone knows what I'm trying to say but I hope you do.🤷🏼 Also your hair is beautiful.😍

You are GLOWING in this video girl!!!!😍

I’m loving your videos recently (though I’ve never NOT loved them). Thanks for the quality content and being so genuine. You’re one of the very few that I will watch ads for to make sure you get some type of kickback! Oh, and you look gorgeous!

You're looking especially gorgeous - LOVE your makeup look! I almost exclusively use shadow to line these days; it is so easy, fast and precise. While I own a number of tightlining brushes, I found one made by Wet n' Wild a few months ago that has become my favorite - it blows my higher end brushes out of the water when I want a thin line. Thanks for the video!

Jess you look GORGEOUS. Loving the hair and glowing skin

I love your hair like this Jessica!! You look absolutely gorgeous 😍

Your skin looks Devine!! So dewy and glowy 💜. Loved this video about brushes and I do hope you do a drug store favs

Love watching your favorites videos. I have similar skin tone and like my make up to be more “natural” and look skin like just like you do. I’ve bought many products based on your favorites and now are my favorite as well 🙂 Also,that sweater looks awesome on you

no judgery doo here either! I love that you own your decisions and how you're doing your own thing 😍

Hey Jess!!! Loved your video!!! Definitely informative and realistic. I am happy to see that whenever you talked about an expensive brush, you gave valid reasons why it’s so good, but also an affordable alternative. I also think I watched the video to validate my expensive/affordable makeup brush collection lol!!! I also enjoy your little rants thrown in 🤣!!! Also....love the hair!!! It slightly reminds me of Jessie Spano from Saved by the Bell...

I’d love to see a video about your favourite affordable brushes! Especially eyeshadow blending brushes that are fluffy but not scratchy. A lot of the affordable brushes i have got are kind of scratchy on my eyelid (one from morphe). Thanks love your channel!

YES PLEASE +Jessica Braun can you please do a video on your top drugstore favorite brushes please!!! I love your videos and have watched you and your beautiful baby and husband on your vlogs too. Gigi is soooooooo adorable!!!

your makeup looks fantastice today!! LOVE the lip color!

I HIGHLY recommend the Anastasia tweezers- so much so that I bought a backup for my travel bag and I bought some for my mom too- she agrees they’re the best tweezers she’s ever used. Well worth the price in my opinion

Your makeup/hair/entire being is extra lovely in this video, Jess! I love make up brush videos... one of my wishes for this year is to save up for a few Smith Cosmetics brushes.

You look particularly STUNNING in this video! 💜 and thanks for the video. And yes I'd love an all drugstore version!

Your hair looks so beautiful in this video! I'd love to see a video of you trying the Curly Girl method - I also have curly hair and just started trying it.

I recently started applying foundation with a powder brush and it looks phenomenal, it makes my skin look so natural!

Whatever you are wearing is totally working for you!! You look extra beautiful in this video!

Your videos always crack me up! YES I BLOW ON MY BRUSHES ! Hahahah you do YOU GIRL ❤️ Love you videos and Tyler’s travel ones 🥰 you guys rock ❤️

Jessica, thank you for this video!!! I also recently discovered the air pro brushes from Sephora! My absolute favorite to be honest. For the eyes I cannot stop using #38 which is a fluffy crease brush and #31 which is for the crease and a bit denser and I use it to blend

I love so many of these! My all-time favorite is the tarte paddle brush for foundation (an artis knockoff)... the finish it gives me is amazing! fav. drugstore brand is ecotools - they're so fantastic and inexpensive!

So glad to see an imformative favorites video on makeup brushes.

Yes, please do favourite drugstore brushes, that would be awesome!!!

I like the peachy eye look on you today! It’s a slight departure from your norm and I like it!

Love that sweater on you, Jess! And the outro is so relaxing 💙😊🎶

Jess you look absolutely STUNNING in this video!!!!

I love this eye shadow color on you!

Yes i blow on my brushes 😂😂 you're the greatest! I love how real you are. Please never loose that! You are great. And i love how long and detailed your videos are btw

I’m quickly becoming a brush nerd, so I absolutely enjoyed this video!

I love Sephora Collection brushes. They were some of my first brushes that I bought years ago and they are still like new 10+ years later. Two of my favorites are #15 and #18 eyeshadow brushes. They are smaller and work really well for my eye shape.

your foundation looks sooo beautiful!

So glad you did this video! Going this weekend to Walmart to buy Powder Brush, Foundation Brush and a Sponge. Love the Loreal pink sponge like you do! Definitely will look at the brushes in Flower and Real Techniques. Also going to buy the Covergirl Ultra Fine brow pencil that you mentioned!

You look so pretty with your natural hair./Your natural hair is so gorgeous!

I’m really loving your makeup today. Not sure what’s different (I always think you look great but today I’m just yes Jess, this look is perfection)

Wow, so many great recommendations! I love the ELF powder brush and so many of the others too! 💜

Hi Jessica! Love your videos! I'm glad you mentioned Sephora Pro brushes, no one else seems to talk about them. I think they are really good brushes. I have the #90 Pro Featherweight Complexion brush. Its a denser slightly smaller powder brush. I use it to set powder underneath my eyes. I also use #56 for bronzer or blush, medium domed brush that's still soft and blends well. I was just watching Mel Thompson's makeup brush video that she uploaded today, take a look. She is awesome too !

I just bought that 3 pack of velour puffs!!! It got delivered a couple days ago but I haven't had time to do my makeup. They're fantastic quality! Also if one side gets dirty, you can kinda flip the handle/ribbon-y part thing to the other side and use the other side of it! I saw someone in the reviews on Amazon say that.

Thank you Jessica!! I got a set for Christmas and I wasnt sure what to use most of them for.

wow! your hair and makeup are stunning

I have a beautiful set of Sephora brushes and they look almost exactly like the ones you're mentioning, I'm gonna have to go look to see, but I LOOOOOOOOOOVE them

Pro highlight #98 is my favorite highlight brush hands down. Never thought I needed a special brush for that but it’s awesome!

Be been waiting for someone to do this type of video! Thanks for your input!

love IT brushes, especially the #77! Totally worth the price. ULTA often has sets, particularly during the holidays. also, QVC often includes a brush with IT products-- basically getting the brush for free or a few dollars. Quickly expanded my collection via these methods.

YESSSSSS 40 minutes of brushes is my heaven

You look extra pretty today, Jessica❣️ I’m so glad you will be listing what you’re wearing 💕
