Best brush for full coverage?

I always go for a full coverage when applying my foundation. I am currently using an Estèe Lauder flat foundation brush but no matter how much foundation I apply I am left with an uneven and streaky coverage and the brush seems to absorb a lot of the foundation which is not ideal especially if I am working with a more expensive foundation which I can't afford to waste. What sort of brush would be most suitable for a clean, even finish with full coverage?

I think maybe a beauty blender is what you need, I don't use brushes for a couple reasons, they get very dirty fast, and they create streaky patterns on your face. Beauty blenders make it look like you have airbrushed skin.

I just use a beauty blender or my fingers. I don't like the results with a brush.

I use the small stifling brush from Mac, but I saw on tyme the infamous channel that a Marc Jacobs brush that is slanted covers wonderfully, I believe the sculpt in foundation brush is what it's called! (A little pricey)

Either a stippling brush or a beauty blender. With a stippling brush most people make the mistake of stippling and then buffing in. You're suppose to just keep stippling
