No. 10: Smashbox Arced Eyeliner Brush #21, $20
TotalBeauty.com average reader rating: 9.3*
Why: Readers say this brush "makes putting on eyeliner a breeze." With its "pointy" tip, there "isn't much smudging." "It allows you to be so precise!" one reader exclaims. "The angle is perfect," another reader explains, because "your lashes don't get in the way, and it's easy to keep a steady hand." The brush's design "allows you better control for how thin or thick you want to apply the liner," a third reader says. Another reader says this brush allows her to get that perfect line "without climbing up on [the] countertop to steady [her] hand." Readers agree: "You can look as glam as a Hollywood starlet with this spectacular eyeliner brush."

I have the Shisedo lash curler, too faced brush, tweezers, both MAC brushes & love them all. Does this make me a hoarder?

In Canada Shoppers Drug Mart carrys a line called Quo (their own store). Brushes are available individually or in sets. They are very good quality and comparable to high end brushes but are in a moderate price range and there are a huge number to chooses from. At certain times they have sets and I have ben able to aquire a large collection, have had many for years and use them regularly. I once had a problem and they exchanged the brush, no questions even though it was several yrs old, in part because if it is from their store line they will do this.

I really don't like the Smashbox eyeliner brush. It was not easy to use.
