Although I can never resist the odd indulgence in high-end cosmetics, at heart, I will always be an advocate for drugstore beauty. There are so many amazing products to be found at a bargain price on your local high street and I love sharing my own discoveries. This post is another instalment of a series sharing my favourite Drugstore Brushes and today I am talking all about EcoTools.
EcoTools is a leading brand in producing eco-conscious cosmetics and is best known for their collection of inexpensive makeup brushes. The brand allows a flawless finish to be achievable for any beauty lover, regardless of budget whilst also being 100% cruelty free and environmentally friendly. The brushes are made from high-quality, ultra soft synthetic bristles with bamboo and recycled aluminium handles. They are also packaged in recyclable materials and accompanied with re-usable pouches.
1. Bamboo Deluxe Concealer Brush - £5.49
The first EcoTools brush that I added to my collection was the Bamboo Deluxe Concealer Brush; I was left impressed and eager to try out more from the brand. This brush is slightly tapered and is perfect for concealing blemishes, scaring, dark circles and pigmentation. The bristles are amazingly soft and perfect for applying extra coverage onto the areas where it is needed. I also find that it works wonders as a blending brush for eyeshadow.
2. Eye Enhancing Duo Brush Set - £6.99
Next is one of my all-time favourite drugstore items; the Eye Enhancing Duo Brush Set. With this duo you essentially receive four brushes; the basic set for any beauty novice experimenting with eyeshadow for the first time. The type of brush is carved into the handle on each end to help anyone who is unsure on what to use wear.

On one you have blend; a fluffy, ultra soft brush for blending shadow and smudge; a short, flat, chubby brush for smoking out shadow along the lash line. The second one has shade on one end; a basic flat shadow brush and define on the other; a thin, slightly slanted brush for applying product with ultimate precision.

The duo is a complete bargain, the brushes are an amazing quality, highly affordable and all you need to get you started off in the world of eye makeup.
3. Fresh & Flawless 5 pc Complexion Set - £11.99
Another EcoTools set that I love and actually bought as a gift is the Fresh & Flawless Five Piece Complexion Set. This is ideal for anyone who isn’t quite a makeup fanatic, but wants to improve the way that they apply their makeup for a smoother finish. The brushes are ideal for travelling as they are miniature but will also look gorgeous on anyone's vanity table. They have the EcoTools signature wooden handle and then the aluminium section is in a different colour on each brush with an intricate leaf patten.
The brushes are numbered and inside there is a brief explanation of each one with the name of the brush and what it is to be used for. This is another reason that this set is the perfect gift for anyone slightly baffled my beauty or just starting to experiment and wishing for a simple way to improve their technique.
I truly do love this brand and think that the quality of brushes you receive for the price make their range one of the biggest bargains to be discovered at the drugstore. I am eager to add to my collection and can not wait to try out their stippling, blush and skin perfecting brushes.
I hope that you enjoyed this and be sure to read all about my previous The Best Drugstore Brushes post where I share my thoughts on the well-known Real Techniques line. I would love to hear your thoughts in the comments down below as well as the cosmetic brushes that you are currently loving.
