Does anyone else use "Beauty Without Cruelty" makeup?

[Critters2]

I used to buy it from my food co-op, but I've quit my co-op (new leadership couldn't or wouldn't accommodate those of us with day jobs), and now order a lot of things online. I just got my new order of BWC makeup--blush, pressed powder and loose powder. I don't use a lot of makeup, so it lasts a long time around here. The last stuff I got from the co-op came with a small brush for the blush, and a sponge in the pressed powder compact. The new stuff doesn't have any way to apply it. I'll probably just keep using the sponge from my old powder, but I'll need a new blush brush.

So, my questions are these...Was I supposed to have gotten a brush with this? And if I need to buy a brush, can anyone recommend the best vegan makeup brush (cheap would be nice, too, but vegan is most important)? I've just e-mailed BWC, too.

I really like their stuff, but I need some way to get it from the container to my face :)

Thanks for any recommendations!

1. No help here, regarding BWC.

However, there are vegan brushes out there. Origins & Ecco Bella offer synthetic & I think some of Bare Escentuals are synthetic, but not all. As for cheap, they are not!

Good luck.

2. Thanks for your help. I checked PETA's shopping site and found that the

Body Shop brushes are synthetic. I was about to give up on finding a retractable sunthetic brush to carry in my purse, until I looked at The Body Shop.

Found what I needed. Also wrote BWC, and asked 'em to add brushes to their product line--or go back to providing them with the makeup.

Again, thanks!
