Brush Recommendations

My makeup brushes were old and I had a bad allergic reaction when I last washed them since the metal leached and I’m allergic to nickel. So now I’m in a place I really need to start from scratch to get new ones. I think 20 years was probably a good run for most of them! I’m in the USA, Virginia to be more specific. Budget is midrange ($20-50/brush but not all brushes at $50 but for a special one sure!) I don’t mind spending a bit on something like this that lasts as I get anxious about the purchase and they last longer typically! I’m starting with the face ones as I do have some cheap ways to do things like my eyes. I’m by NO means good at makeup, but if it’s anything like my art the right tools make it SO much easier. Brushes I definitely need immediately: -Foundation -Concealer -Bronzer -Blush But if you have any others or sets I’d love to know those too! I’m going to be keeping my eyes open during the holiday sales and I am a Sephora member so I’m debating any I can get discounted there. I know not every brand is great for every brush, so I’m good doing just select brushes that are best as well, instead of sets. Thank you all for your ideas, suggestions and expertise!
