Are Urban Decay brushes worth the price? Anyone uses them???

I just got eccotools brushes, as well have brushes in my makeup kit, so I'm in no need of brushes yet. But because Urban Decay sales are so rare I'm debating if I should buy them too.

Thanks!

PS, What is your favorite vegan Urban Decay product? I love their heavy metal glitter

I like the 24/7 Concealer,black eyeliner pencil and all the glittery stuff. Really want to try the Ink for eyes :D

The ink for eyes looks good.

I've only used the two brushes that came in the makeup palette however the quality seems to be okay but nothing to really brag about. Nothing special especially for the price. If you are looking for good vegan brushes in the future Coastal Scents makes some really nice synthetic ones for a great price.

I love Urban Decay's shadows. Baked is my all time favourite eye shadow of any brand.

Their makeup palette brushes are not the same as regular ones. Thanks for the brush suggestion though! I just wish every brush came in synthetic, such as the fan brush.
I've orded some eyeshadows :)

I could never live without the crease brush and the wonder brush. I only have those two from them...and they make up for the crap-ness of my other brushes. Pretty much the rule of thumb is a good crease brush and good liner. The wonder brush is a great liner and also doubles as a good precision blender...I love those two brushes so much.
I want to finish out my collection but there's no money for anything other than bills and food right now so sad day.

They're sold out of the wonder brush. If they approve my order, I'm getting the crease, blush, eye, and and blender.
I'm pretty broke myself too which is why I was debating the brush purchase since the sale started. Most likely I won't be buying any UD makeup until next year's sale.

24/7 liners and their lipstick.

I'm so happy they don't add caramine to every lip color!

I'm not a big fan of their brushes. I like my Ecco Bella and Garden Botanika brushes better. And so far, a couple of Eco-Tools I have are better that UD. I've had my Ecco Bellas for 8 years...they've really held up.

I like their lipstick, lip plumper, Firecracker gloss, and 24/7 liners.

toxicdoll August 20 2009, 05:05:33 UTC

I've never seen Ecco Bella brushes anywhere. But the EB stuff I've used always been good!
I haven't started using the EcoTools brushes yet, but they do slightly shed.

dakotaluna August 20 2009, 05:36:37 UTC

Hm...I've had them so long. I wonder if they still make them? I haven't washed my EcoTools yet. I guess that'll be the test...to see if they hold up and if they stay soft.

Choice Brush sells a Teklon fan brush, but I don't know if they would ship outside the US.

They also have nice kabuki brushes.

They are not on the ecco bella website.
Brushes shouldn't loose their softness. They can shed and the hairs can loose their shape.

Thanks for the link! I will keep it for future, when more burshes are needed.
