A Little Real Techniques Haul

After recently testing the Real Techniques Miracle Complexion Sponge (read the full review here) I couldn't resist treating myself to a few more items from the collection. So - after spending at least half an hour browsing - I finally decided on three more brushes to test for myself.



The first brush I chose comes from the collections Flawless/Base collection. Thanks to its soft & light bristles the angled Foundation Brush claims to slowly build coverage to create a high definition & "pixel perfect" effect. If there's one thing I struggle with when applying foundation, it's covering the small & hard-to-reach areas.. So I'm very excited to see if this helps & allows me to finally achieve that perfect base.

Next is a brush that comes from the Finish/Perfected collection.. the Retractable Lip Brush. Described as a brush that "applies colour smoothly & expertly" around the contours & lines of the lip, this is a brush for perfect lipstick application. With an "ultra-firm" & "tapered tip" I'm hoping this will help create that gorgeous highly-defined lip that I often find myself lusting after.. Bonus - the retractable feature makes this perfect for travel.

The third & final brush is another from the Base/Flawless collection - the Real Techniques Powder Brush. According to the website, this brush is perfect for an even application of both mineral foundations & powder. The thing that really stands out to me about this brush is the size of the bristles themselves - something that should allow for applying powders without leaving skin feeling "cakey".

Like all Real Techniques brushes - each of the above is coloured a metallic shade which looks stunning sat on my dressing table. I'll be testing these for myself over the next few weeks - so watch this space for a review or two.

Have you tried any of the above brushes?
If so, what are your thoughts?
