Your synthetic nylon and taklon brushes (Sephora antibacterial and RealTechniques mentioned above) are an excellent choice if you prefer your brushes not to shed or are working with a client who is allergic to things like cashmere (goat hair brushes may react to women with cashmere allergies). However, nylon brushes are not considered the best brushes for application. The bristles are slick and have trouble retaining and depositing pigment the way natural fiber brushes do. However, the trade-off is that the bristles in any natural fiber brush will wear out or shed faster than an equivalent synthetic.
That said, you should be using a synthetic brush in cream or liquid products - not only to prevent the growth of bacteria, but natural fiber brushes deteriorate more rapidly with constant use in liquid and cream products. This may solve your problem:)

All of my brushes shed when used in cream products and all the ones I want to buy like the sigma ones Ive heard shead too! Is there anything out there that doesnt shed when used with foundation or cream blushes/bronzers?

I love my real techniques by samantha chapman. No shedding at all. I've had them since the fall, and I deep cleanse them twice a week. Plus, they're quite inexpensive.

I have a set of the Sephora Antibacterial brushes http://www.sephora.com/browse/produ... they are wonderful! So easy to clean, and do not shed.

Hmmm I think I'm going to go get some real techniques brushes. I looked at the sephora ones and only one of them looked like something I would use.
Thank you all for your help :)
