Real Techniques

Yes. I've finally caved in and bought my first Real Techniques brushes after a routine browse of the Feel Unique website. "Why did you wait so long to buy them?" I can hear you say. Well, I'll be honest with you, I didn't really believe the hype. Oh, how wrong I was. They are the best makeup brush related purchase I've ever made and you can be sure that I'll be expanding my collection very soon. As I'm not really sure where this post fits in, consider it a haul/first impressions/review.

Blush Brush

Probably my favourite out of this little haul. This is the softest brush ever. As soon it was out of the packaging I couldn't stop stroking my face with it - yes a little bit weird, but it tells you just how soft this brush is. Because this brush is tapered it holds the colour well and distributes an even amount of colour across your cheeks.

Expert Face Brush

When I first got this I was surprised at how small it was. "This is supposed to blend foundation over my entire face?" was my reaction. But because it's so dense it is great at applying liquid foundation if you're willing to put a bit of work into it. I like to use this aswell as a larger foundation brush to create a flawless finish and ensure that everything's blended in perfectly.

Shading Brush

This little brush packs so much colour onto the eyelid it's unbelievable. This is, again, a very dense brush that works so well at applying a base colour to your eyelid and is also brilliant at blending out a smoky eye look.

What are your favourite Real Techniques brushes?
