A couple of months ago I was on a mission to find the
perfect brushes, I browsed the MAC counter, the Sephora collection and I
finally found my answer on You Tube.
I found the best - quality brushes - and with an even
better price that won’t break the bank, the Real Techniques brushes by Samantha
Chapman.
Samantha Chapman is actually a makeup artist that has a
channel on You Tube named Pixiwoo where she teaches different makeup tutorials.
She teamed up with the Real Techniques company to offer the ladies affordable and good
quality brushes that give a high-definition effect. The Real Techniques brushes
range from foundation brushes to blush brush to eye precision brushes.
My first thought was : Are these made with synthetic hair ?
As many of you don’t know, synthetic hair does not shed, or barely sheds
compared to natural hair brushes such as the ones sold at MAC cosmetics. It’s kind of
ironic because you pay an arm and a leg for a MAC brush and you end up finding
parts of it on your makeup or on your face. Then and there, Real Techniques was
an obvious choice for me.
The first pack of Real Techniques brushes that I ordered is
the Core Collection. The Core Collection consists of 4 brushes : the buffing
brush, the foundation brush, the contour brush and the detailer brush.
To be honest I ordered this collection for the buffing
brush only. This brush is pure gold, it blends everything perfectly from your tinted
moisturizer to your foundation to your mineral powder, and it’s a must for your
collection. You may find this funny but it certainly also minimizes the time
you allow to fixing your face in the morning, which means, you can hit the
snooze button more often !!!
These brushes are not available in Canada just yet, but you
can always place an order on Amazon.com or on Ebay, The price differs from the sellers on Amazon
and on Ebay but the Core Collection retails between 17.99$ to 19.99$ US
dollars.
A bargain for what you get !
