Do you know why your cosmetic brush is so expensive?

Makeup brushes are a niche market, and among consumer products, professionally designed niche products are almost always more expensive. On the material, if your makeup brush is a natural bristle brush, it can be very expensive to manufacture. For high-quality makeup brushes, time, craftsmanship, and procurement of exotic materials all drive up the price of makeup brushes.

At present, people are more advocates of environmentalism and cruelty-free, so more and more makeup brush manufacturers are starting to re-purchase product raw materials. More synthetic bristles are used, which not only have the softness of natural bristle brushes, but also are lower in cost.
