I've been on the hunt for some new make up brushes for quite some time but looking for some that are going to do a good job but aren't going to bankrupt me was quite difficult. I've read a lot about the Real Techniques brushes on various blogs and websites so this weekend I decided to buy the Real Techniques Core Collection which includes a contouring brush, a pointed foundation brush, a detailer brush and a buffer brush. Getting all four brushes for £21.99 seems like too good to be true but I was confident in all the positive reviews I've read.

Having had a little play with them already, I'm really impressed! They leave a fantastic, flawless finish and the taklon bristles are extremely soft. As taklon bristles are synthetic, the beauty is that they are cruelty free and less prone to shedding. They can also be used for all types of make up, including liquid, cream, powder and mineral. And as they are designed by Sam Chapman, a professional make-up artist famous for her YouTube tutorials, you know that you're going to be using a high quality tool that gives you the results you're looking for.
For me, the best thing about Real Techniques is their website. I'm certainly no expert when it comes to make up and I really do need all the help I can get. Sam Chapman shares all her make up wisdom online, and there are a number of video tutorials, giving a step-by-step guide on how to use each brush and how to create different looks.
I can't wait to experiment more with these brushes and hopefully build up my collection. There is, after all, room for a few more brushes in the handy case that comes with this collection!
Have you tried any of the Real Techniques brushes? What did you think?
