Real Techniques Core Collection / Review


I give this product ****

I have heard a lot about Real Tecniques make-up brushes before I purchased them. I honestly could not wait to try them.

I'm sure you can find a lot of reviews on these brushes, however I still wanted to put them tot he test myself.

I am doing my review on the Real Techniques Core Collection. These brushes were made by Sam and Nic Chapman. In 2011 the Real Techniques brush set was released.

Real Techniques brushes are Synthetic and cruelty free. They have a aluminum handle that are light and easy for use.

In the Real Techniques Core collection you receive FOUR brushes and one Panaoramic case.

I purchased my Real Techniques Core collection brush set from Priceline. When I purchsed them I paid $38 AUD.

I have noticed the pricing varies, depending where you purchase them.

I think the Real Techniques brushes are great. Every time I use these brushes I end up with a smooth flawless appearnce.

To have a great application you need the right tools. A lot of women have no idea where to start when it comes to strating their brush collection. Well this a great choice.

Obviously for make-up artists we need a lot brushes but these are great for personal use.

The bristles are really soft and they are very easy to clean. I have also noticed the bristles do not damage easily as some other brushes do that I hace tried.

If you are after a flawless base I recommend trying these Real Techniques brushes core collection brushes.

In the Core collection as I said before you recieve four brushes.

These bushes are a Buffing brush, a contour brush, a pointed foundation brush and one detailer brush. I have placed a labelled image below so you can clearly see each brush and their use.

The Buffing brush is great for mineral foundations, blending foundations, applying translucent powder, applying blush, bronzing, applying and blending liquid foundation.

You could use this brush to apply nearly any form of foundtilon or powder to your face and neck,

Contour Brush is obviously really good for contouring and highlighting,bronzing, applying blush and illuminators.

Pointed Foundation Brush Can be used to apply foundation , although this brush is rather small.

It is great for applying concealer, especially because of the pointed tip. the pointed tip is great for getting right in under the eyes.

This brush could also be used for applying eyeshadow.

Detail Brush can be used to add detail, you could use it with eyeshadow in the crease and or outer corners of the eye.

This brush could also be used for highlighting under the brow bone. You could use a eyeshadow as a eyeliner and use the detail brush to go along the lash line. this brush could also be used to apply lip products.

It would also be great to use cleaning up around the lip area; applya little conceler, that matches your foundation and natural skintone to the tip then swipe around the edges of your lips gently to clean edges.

There is no rule when it come sto make-up brushes. Just because a brush is called a foundation brush does not mean you can't find other uses for it.

What I really like is the Panoramic case, is you can also fold it the case to form a stand .

This can be handy and can be easily accessible to brushes.

Real Techniques make-up brushes are also available for single purchase.

There is also other sets available other than the Core Collection such as; eye linning set, Starter set, duo file collection. travel essentials,

They also have a new Bold metals collection now available.

The bold metals collection look so nice I would really like to purchase some.

Real Techniques also have a miracle complexion sponge.

This is another one of Real Techniques products I would like to try.

I have a couple oth the original authentic beauty blenders so I would like to compare the two.

Where to Purchase?

Real Techniques brushes are available at Priceline, Walmart, Traget, Amazon, ebay. Wish app.
