I remember the buzz over the Real Techniques brushes launching. I decided to finally get my hands on one, why just the one? Just in case I didn't like it of course & not to mention I have 3 different full sets of brushes so you can imagine I'm brush overhauled but who doesn't need more brushes! Knowing Samantha is all about cruelty-free it's a great thing her brushes are too, made of synthetic taklon bristles and hand cut, it's amazingly soft.
The handle has a nice grip to it. Thicker handle than most the brushes I own, it's nice that it gives control. Due to it being quite smaller than most stippling brushes it can get into curves and more of a controlled finish. I would use this as a multi-purpose brush.
On the first use, yes it did shed, meh a few odd hairs. For £11.99 can it be faulted no it can't it's great value for money. Quite interested in the rest of the range now.
I have the core collection kit & eye kit and theyre the main ones I use now! You cant deny they are a great price for the quality they are :)
ReplyDeleteThe stippling brush is next on my list!
Sam xx
Definitely you can't fault these, for the quality and price it's a very good bargain, for anyone xo
DeleteActually love these brushes. Especially their detailer brush, its just so precise.
ReplyDeletePersonally I hated the finish this brush gave me when used with my foundation but it works well with my cream and powder blushes
I found I had to work so hard with it, but once I got the hang of that, I couldn't complain with my finished look but with liquid the bristles may just be too dense.
Deleteyhhh I think thats probably it.
DeleteIt's too dense to work well with liquid foundations
I have this brush too and it did shed a few bristles I currently use this to apply my maybelline bb cream and for blushes and bronzers. I love this brush as well I have the powder brush and I like that say well.
ReplyDeleteYes, I found this can be a multi-purpose brush. Liquids may be too much for it though, glad you like brushes (:
Deleteit looks like it would be very comfortable to hold and use. Plus it's pink! You can't go wrong with pink!
ReplyDeleteThat's so Fletch
xo, Jay
lol, you can't go wrong with pink. Yeah it has a nice grip and being quite thick is good with the buffering you need to do xo
DeleteI been wanting this stippling brush but they're always out at my Ulta! I have the core collection and of course as many others, i am in love with the buffing brush in that collection for my foundation! you should give that a try! I heard that the stippling is great for blushing so I cant wait to get this and try it out with blushers & foundation to compare (:

Oh no, boo! Yeah I want to try more out of this collection, as I've said liquids might not agree too much with how dense it is. So I would use this for other uses as well, such as highlighter, creams and bronzers etc. (: xo
DeleteBeen meaning to try this one for ages!

Same, I buckled and thought let me try these brushes at long last xo
DeleteI want this!
ReplyDeleteGrab it girl xo
DeleteI really love this brush, I wish the head was a bit bigger, but it is perfect for applying cream blush. xx
ReplyDeleteWho know's Sam may bring out a stippling brush better for liquids. I've tried it using other make-up, which does make it good to detail smaller areas than someone who is wanting a quicker foundation application xo
DeleteI liked this brush but there was something funny about it which I couldn't put my finger one and then Annie suggested that it gives a shiny finish and that was it!
ReplyDeleteGreat for using on cream blush not so much foundation
xx
I must say I didn't notice a shiny finish, I must of buffed my face into oblivion lol, I liked my finish, but with it being quite dense, the bristles and liquid don't get on as much as a lighter product. xo
DeleteI've heard that brushes similar to this one is good for foundation application. Gotta get one someday.
ReplyDeleteFollowing you now.
