Best Makeup Brushes, Expert Advice

[timba11]

I have researched about the best makeup brushes for the past few days because I’m trying to upgrade my current set for better blending, coverage, and precision. I went through reviews on Allure, Byrdie, and Harper’s Bazaar, and they consistently mention these two as the top picks:

Jessup Makeup Brushes 14Pcs Makeup Brush

DUcare Professional Makeup Brushes Set 27Pcs

However, I’m still a bit confused about which one would best suit my needs. I do everyday makeup — foundation, contour, blush, eye shadow — and I’m looking for something that’s durable, soft on the skin, doesn’t shed, and easy to clean. I also want good control and precision, especially for eye looks.

So which one should I go for? Or if you have any better recommendations, I’d love to hear!
Thanks in advance!

@timba11 I'm not familiar with either of these brands and it's hard to know without feeling the bristles in person what the quality is like. 

This is more of a know brush brand so I trust them more

I've also had good experience with Spectrum Brushes

This brand, Rephr, has more affordable natural eye brushes, which are nice but not a must.

The Jessup you mentioned seems to be duping the Morphe x Ariel Collab. Idk what the difference in quality might be, but the jessup seems to have really solid reviews. 

The DUcare seems a little redundant when it comes to brush shapes but that might work out for the best if you like and use those shapes often (less washing).
