A couple of weeks ago a customer alerted me to a problem with her brushes after running an update to Lightroom CC. I did the update myself, and experienced the exact same problem.
Before the update, the brushes stayed together alphabetically. After the update, they were listed in no specific order. So when your Perfect Portrait or Enchanted Garden brushes used to be together, they were not mixed in amongst other brushes.
There is actually a very easy fix for this - go into the Local Adjustments Folder, where they were copied when you installed them and put them into folders. You'll need to create a folder, then move the brushes into them. Below are screenshots to illustrate.
The brushes will still look "in order" in the Local Adjustment Presets folder, which makes putting them in folders easier. You can either make the folder and drag each grouping to the particular folder. Or, you can highlight the groupings, then make the folder, choosing to "include selected items."
To help a bit further I created a short, and SILENT, video tutorial. It shows the unordered brushes. Then you will see me making folders for the brushes, and the result after restarting Lightroom.
