I remember the days when I did not use makeup brushes at all. I used the little sponge applicators that came with every makeup set. Now I look back at those and gag. I can't believe I used those for so many years when there were brushes made specifically FOR everything I was using those darn sponge applicators for! I would use them for blending, eyeliner, and everything else in the book. The day that I began using makeup brushes was the day that I fell in love with makeup. With makeup brushes the possibilities are endless! The more I use them, the more I learn about what brands are good and which ones aren't so good. That's where EcoTools and Real Techniques comes into the picture.
So when you hear the name EcoTools what do you think of? I immediately think of green tools, do you? (Green as in environmental friendly). EcoTools does indeed pride themselves on their environmental friendly products!

Let me tell you, I know a good brush when I use one and EcoTools has some of the softest brushes around! The wooden handles definitely make you confident in the durability of the brushes too!
