EcoTools, really great and retain shape after a wash too

You can't beat Real Techniques. Had mine for years, no shedding and great quality

Zoeva. Very affordable and in my opinion just as good as MAC brushes but cheaper.

My DD has RT and Masqd (both from Boots)

There's a BOGOHP on Nyx and Masqd at Boots now (though usually RT has an offer on somewhere )

Are you looking for a set or single brushes to make your own set?

I had some Barbra Daly ones (bought years ago in Tesco) but the handles went all sticky after a while , couldn't save them.

BodyShop are good too.

I really like body shop brushes. 70s if the handles get sticky you can use surgical spirit to clean it . I use on nars cases which get very sticky !

Hourglass do amazing brushes. They beat my Real Techniques/Ecotools etc

They're really expensive though

*sorry, just read your "on a budget bit'

I actually have a couple of Primark 'PS' brushes that I still use and can't complain about them. They're just not as dense as others

Or Makeup Revolution in Superdrug seem to be extremely popular at the moment.

Pea , I tred everything with them, cleaned with detergent , spirit, Astonish paste the lot !
Even painted with clear nail varnish .

It was like the handles just perished and went bleutgh. (They were old and I did get them at a really low price so maybe there were issues with them ? )
