Real Techniques Makeup Brush Haul
So the other day I was in Boots and noticed that the Real Techniques Makeup brushes were on offer – buy one get one half price. Soo you can imagine what happened next.
In my defence….. they were on offer. Well I had been wanting to get some more makeup brushes for a while, and knew I liked the Real Techniques ones as I already owned a few – but seeing them on offer sealed the deal for me.
In case you don’t know, the Real Techniques range was created by Sam Chapman who is a pro makeup artist, and also has a YouTube channel with her sister (also a pro makeup artist) -username Pixiwoo. You can really tell a lot of time and effort has been put into these makeup brushes, as they are incredibly soft, colour coordinated, they have a lovely feel to them and so far no shedding!!
So… I ended up getting two sets, three face ones and an eye one (already own the eye set…)
I had to take the plastic box packaging off as it was acting like a mirror as I was trying to take photos and wasn’t being overly cooperative in the photo taking process.
On the left we have the core collection, which contains a contour brush, a pointed foundation brush, a detailer brush and the buffing brush.
The collection on the right is a limited edition duo-fiber collection containing a face brush, a contour brush and an eye brush.
Starting from the back of the ones lying down going forward, we have the perfect finish blush brush, stippling brush, setting brush and then a shading brush.
I will be doing a full review of these brushes once I have used them all for a while and washed them etc etc, but from the couple I already had before this haul I can tell you as a quick note that so far, I love them. Hence buying all these!
Keep an eye out for my review of these! 😀
Do you own any of these brushes? Which is your favourite one?

September 1, 2013 at 4:26 pmI love the core collection! I also have the collection with all the eye brushes! They’re all fantastic, although I haven’t seen good reviews on the duo fibre ones.

September 1, 2013 at 9:28 pmI so need some of these make up brushes in my life!

September 1, 2013 at 9:36 pmThey are so good! I love higher end brushes, but these don’t even really seem it as they are such a good price! The fact they don’t shed (so far) is a BIG thing for me! xx

September 2, 2013 at 12:43 pmI have heard so much about the Real Techniques brushes but have yet to try them. I usually pick up the Ecotools ones when I am in Boots, but I desperately need to invest in some new brushes especially after some fell apart yesterday when I was washing them! Looking forward to reading your full review on them before I splurge!

September 2, 2013 at 2:40 pmI have their ‘concealer’ brush which I use as an eye shadow brush and works really well! So far I am still totally in love with these though! 🙂 xx

September 4, 2013 at 12:08 pmI’ve seen so much about the Real Techniques brushes but haven’t tried them yet myself – but I’ve never had a nice set of makeup brushes (newbie over here..) so maybe these could be just what I’ve been waiting for! I look forward to the full reviews.

January 8, 2014 at 3:25 pmI love my Sigma brushes too, but on the whole I would say I prefer the Real Techniques ones. I just hope that they bring out more into the range 🙂
