try oriflame brushes..I recently brought a powder brush, blending brush and both of them were good..used to bleed a little while washing but stoped after a few washes..works fine for me..!they r for around 300-350 rs something..!!
I like Kryolan too but its not available mostly, and for availability and affordability Audrey’s and Vega.

Hi Snehal,
Bourjois – powder brush is nice, I bought this after reading this review here http://www.wiseshe.com/2012/06/bourjois-powder-kabuki-review.html and its my current fav brush
Bharat and Dorris – Most of brushes I have are from B & D. These are affordable and good. But they have limited availability, if u r in Mumbai, they have a store in Infinity mall, Malad west.
If u r indeed in Mumbai and want to see wht they hv u can visit their website to have a pre-look and prices, but I wont suggest to buy online cz I heard the online service is not good.
Body shop – offers good brushes reviewed on wiseshe here: http://www.wiseshe.com/2011/03/body-shop-face-and-body-brush-blush-brush-slanted-brush.html & here http://www.wiseshe.com/2011/03/5-the-body-shop-makeup-brushes.html
Ecotools – I also have Ecotools brushes, the one reviewed here is best http://www.wiseshe.com/2012/02/ecotools-retractable-kabuki-brush-review.html, but availability is an issue.
Hope thats helpful
, its really fun to be able to share this thanks to Wiseshe !
MAC is something I would like to try next but they are really heavy on pocket
i have oriflame n vega brushes..n they r quite affordable and good for 1st time users.
@pia,u can get vega brushes from Urbantouch..n stylecraze.
Are they only available online
, I am not used to ol shopping, the wait time will kill me 
but will still try if thers no option…
Thank you Navneet
pia u can opt for cash on delivery system and pay once ur stuff reaches u
they deliver in around 3-4 days

hey Pia, one of the best places to find Vega brushes is by going to Vega site at http://www.vega.co.in and buying straight from there. better pictures and good offers.

Thank you Poorna, will give this a try for sure
Thank you Upasana
Vega is one brand that is most easily available. Just looks for it in any major supermarkets/bazars/ beaty stores. Ure sure to find a set of vega brushes there Pia
Thank you Nafisa
, yes I got to visit the website, but did not find any in any of the stores around yet. Humm right now, my brush craze is under control cz I have a box full of brushes, still think I need a few.
Today, I got two lipbalms from Maybelline, one from Lakme Lip love range the hottie pink, and plus a Body Shop eye shadow brush 
My current craze like in full to cazy about lippies and lip balms
pia i really like body shop eye shadow brushes..they really do their job well.
i havn;t tried tbs brushes yet

I’d suggest :-
1. If you have a credit card, then shop from coastal scents for their 22 piece brush set, as it has all the basic and specific brushes which are of well quality and worth the price you pay. They normally delivery stuff in max 2 weeks.. but be aware of your postal people. If you don’t trust them then get it delivered somewhere else.
2. IF you dont have a credit card but have net banking, then you can buy brush piece sets from the Global Ebay section, i haven’t bought anything from global ebay, but many have and they trust their service, so you can give this a thought.
3. IF you don’t have a c.c or net banking, then you can go for Vega/Audrey/ELF/NYX brushes from our beauty websites which offer CASH ON DELIVERY and you can pay stuff after it reaches you.
MAC, SIGMA, INGLOT, B&D brushes are all specific brands and are pricey

about two years back i threw away a brush set in garbage. Then i didnt know how to use it, used sponges and fingers for everything…It was some low cost brand but i didnt even try it….
Now i cant believe i did it… 
Similarly i gave away some great blow drying brushes cause didnt know how to use them… hi hi.. It was all before the empire of beauty blogs was established..
you know ife .. i threw away many make-up palettes .. brushes .. beautiful nailart stuff .. I din’t know what they were and how to use them .. now i so regret it ..
.. now those things cost a bomb to buy .. 
..
oh janani were worse than me…. now i feel a bit better. i have also thrown away eyeshadows hi hi
Ife .. you have no idea .. how i feel ..
good .. I am asking all my ppl who ve gone outside India to get me make-up .. its crazy .. but I ve grown to appreciate it a lot ..
its a normal habbit of mine.
Faces and vlcc groome have a nice set of makeup brushes. Vega is a fairly nice brand to start with since they’re the most affordable range around. Audrey’s, basicare and bare essentials are affordable and fall into the same category too.But these 3 brands have for some odd reason not been widely used. The body shop and Sigma have some of the softest brushes but they’re quite pricey and will cost u around 600 to 800 for a single brush. Coastal scents have affordable , high quality brushes but the shipping costs can be high and it would turn out pricey if ure going to order just one or two brushes from them and pay high shipping. Bourjois Paris have some brushes but they do tend to shed when washed frequently.
Basicare has some good bargains.. Love their cute products like shampoo massager n all…
ooh shampoo massager?? Sounds interesting
. Have u used basicare brushes ife?
Coastal scents 22 pcs kit brushes are a great buy
and B & D brushes are FAB!
Hey Erica, I too love B & D brushes, and I have a lot of these. Which one do u have?
i don have B &D Bryshes at all and i want to try them
Do lemme know if u want some..A!
I l get it for U..!
Hey Pia.. currently i have none.. but soon i ‘ll have all of dem !
I have noticed one thing though that their powder and stippling brush shades a bit, but I haven’t washed it yet, so probably this shud stop after the first wash.
But they are worth a try
Get 22 piece set from buyincoins..their quality is same as coastal scents brushes…in india Faces eyeshadow applicator brush (99 INR) and eyeshadow blending brush (250) are best..for face you can go for ecotools brushes again available online or get B&D brushes..i have stippling brush and its quite good.

Pari, i was gonna get some brushes brom buyincoins but i heard the’yre awfully scratchy and the quality is bad
. Was scared to order after that 
Check out ana’s review:
http://www.wiseshe.com/2011/03/24-pcs-makeup-brush-cosmetic-brushes-set-from-buyincoins-com-review.html
n yes i completey forgot ecotools
Thanks pari….they’re of great quality too na?
arre haan! i forgot bout them!!! ecotools is awesome…so soft and gr8 for blending…
pari c.s brushes are far more better than what they sell at buyincoins.. its ok to get e/s palettes from them
but i being a brush-maniac won’t ever get a single piece of brush from them
Upasana recently posted..Vote for me !
i so agree..if u can get ur hands on CS thn dont think twice…just grab it!
I agreeeeeeeee Majorly… CS brushes are very good quality n i dont think buyincoins are better or even equal to it!
I recently got the pink set from Sedona lace…… One word – AWESOME!!!
id def say Vega professional brushes r gud..plus ambika pillai brushes r amazing….
why dont you girls do a post on hairstyles..
i am bored with my old hairstyles..

Can anyone say what is the price range of bharat And dorris?? I need to buy more brushes kyunki wash karna lazy feel hota hai.. toh ek acha substute hona chahiye!!
Hey varna…they range from 300 to 500-600
quality is to die for!
Yes, I agree with you Zee, they are good quality for that range.
Varsha you can check the brushes and their price on their website http://www.bharatdorris.com –> products section.
