Ere Perez Vegan Makeup Brush Shopping Guide - the best 4 brushes to cover all your needs

The Ere Perez Multipurpose brush covers the use of multiple brushes. If you're travelling, you can leave your larger kabuki brush at home and just take this. The mulitpurpose brush is suitable to use with liquid and cream products. It has a flat top head with soft vegan bristles and is perfect for blending your liquid and powder foundations perfectly. You will get a silky smooth finish every time.

Use me not only for liquid and powder foundations and natural BB cream but also for cheek colour pots, highlighters and the corn setting powder.

This double ended brush allows you to create harsh lines with one end and then blend them with the other. The harsh line end has a thin row of bristles with an angled head that are tightly packed. The other end is soft and fluffy to blend out harsh transitions where you don't want them.

Anything you need to do around the eyes can be done with this brush. Whether it's an eye shadow palette or a carrot colour pot, any precision work needed with your eye makeup will be covered with this double ended defining brush.

This is a second brush for the eyes. The smaller end is your smudge end which is perfect for blurring and blending eye liners and dark eye shadows for a smokey look. The larger end, the shade end is for your eye shadows. You can use to pick up your powered colour from eye shadows and blend.

It is very similar to the lip & conceal brush, and in a pinch you will also get your precise lip line application and soft concealer application from the same brush without having to have both.

The Ere Perez Kabuki Brush fits perfectly in the palm of your hand and is easy to travel with and keep in your handbag. With soft and fluffy bristles, it has a flat head and can be used for complexion coverage. It's the same style and shape of head as the Multipurpose brush but larger.

Ere Perez are making major steps forward in sustainability by swapping lipsticks in plastic packaging for lip crayons and replacing plastic compacts with their shiny aluminium pin refillable pin wheel. In their makeup brush range, the handles are made from biodegradable corn resin. We expect you to have these high quality brushes in your makeup bag for years to come, but if something happens to yours, the handles do not need to go to landfill.

The bristles in the Ere Perez Vegan Makeup Brush range are not a natural fibre, they are made from nylon. Natural bristles that are harvested from animals are a poor choice for 2 reasons, which is why it's not done with these brushes. Firstly, they would not be a vegan brush (and almost all the Ere Perez range is vegan, with the exception of a small amount of beeswax). Secondly, animal bristles have cracks in the surface and are harder to clean. The nylon bristles are softer on the skin, last longer and are easier to clean, making them a more hygienic alternative.

You just need to make one small investment in good quality makeup brushes, and as long as you take good care of them, they'll last you years. When you have finished using your brushes, gently wash them either with the same natural shampoo or a liquid castile soap if you already have in the shower, reshaped them and then and allow them to completely dry before putting them away.
