I've got the eye blending brush (not studio) and it's brilliant!

I have the kabuki face brush, stipple brush, both from the studio line & the eye shadow brush from the essential line. I love love love love love the kabuki & eye shadow brush. The stipple brush is alright for blending in foundation (if you use a full coverage one) after it has already been applied. I would really recommend trying the eye shadow brush, it's the best ! (:

I believe the powder brush is pretty good. The stipple brush in my opinion sucks its not dense and it doesn't help at picking up product or applying foundation. lol I hope this helped a bit. :)

Hm, definitely completely depends on the person. I dislike the 1$ brushes that I've tried and stick with the 3$ studio line. I really like the powder brush, angled brush, smudge brush, and those other itty bitty brushes. I don't care for their bent eyeliner brush though. I think it makes application too uneven.

I agree with Rikki. Go with the Studio line of brushes. I recommend the flat-top Powder Brush.

I love love love $1 blending blush. I use the $1 foundation brush to apply my under eye highlight because it would be useless as an actual foundation brush.

The studio brushes are the best!

I suggest the $30 11-piece set! =)

I bought one Kabuki Brush (I believe it's the one with the chestnut colored bristles), completely hated it. The bristles were really rough on my face and the hairs fell out (a majority) when I barely used it. I have some other brushes and I haven't had any problems with them.

studio brushes are amazing
as for the old $1 brushes i recommend the flat eyeshadow brush and the bending brush

I LOVE their Flat Top Powder brush for putting on Foundation. It is my go-to foundation brush and I have three of them! For the price, you can't beat it. I also love their $1 Flat Shadow brushes. They used to be short and dingy but they changed the look of them recently. However, if you got an old one it's really good for smudging liner. ;)

I love the Studio Line brushes, all except the stippling brush. It's too flimsy in my opinion. Out of the $1 Line, I like the regular eyeshadow, blending, crease & angled eye brushes. I'm not a fan of the face brushes from the $1 line at all.

Definitely stick to the studio line. & i cant remember if the mineral brushes are a part of the studio line or not but they were having a sale one day & i got 10 for free i think & those brushes are awesome! Theyre sooo soft and light. A few stray hairs have come out the brush but again they are $5 brushes.

I like the essential brushes but they fall apart terribly quickly lol. I'd suggest going with the studio line. I have a few of their brushes that I absolutely love! I see a lot of people don't like the stippling brush but I love it! Like others have mentioned it's not dense enough for foundation but I swear by it for blush! It applies my super pigmented blushes like a dream!

the flat top powder brush, stuido blush brush, mineral powder brush from stuido line, eyeshadow brush from $1 line, crease brush, almost any brushes from the stuido line are great and most of the eye brushes from the $1 line

Hey lovelies, I just got my first ELF brushes last week & I love them! (Large Angle brush & Crease brush), was wanting to invest in some more, but I've heard that some of the brushes are either hit or miss. Could yous let me know what ones are worth it AND which are NOT worth it.

the hit and misses are mostly with the $1 line but the studio line is awesome, i love the flat top powder brush (own 2 of them one for foundation and one for powder) the complectin brush, as well as the blush brush :)

I would say the studio brushes, but mostly the flat topped powder brush because it spreads a little powder pretty far over your face :)

I stumbled upon better brushes while I was at Kmart that are still "cheap" in my book! I paid 10$ for these amazing double sided brushes by Posh ( That's the name of the brand not sure if it has any relation with posh spice? ha) It came with a foundation brush/concealer brush, angled blush brush/powder brush, fluffy eye shadow brush/angled eye liner brush and they have lasted me MONTHS! My biggest problem with the Elf brushes is that after a while of use, they start to lose their "bristles' on my face and basically fall apart really fast! I have bad experience with them even if I clean them often =[
