Real Techniques Setting Brush

Brilliant foundation brush. Easily one of the best I’ve used. I bought it to replace another brand, I’m not going to name it, but it was dearer than this and it was desperate. It took a lot of work on my part to avoid streaking.This one - an absolute breeze. Not a single streak, and I can put my foundation on in less than two minutes.The quality is excellent for the price, the brush is pretty thick (at least, thick enough to be useful!) and very soft. It was an absolute steal for the price. I also liked the fact that the brush handle isn’t too long. My makeup bag is on the small side, and this fits in perfectly.All in all, I’m very happy with my purchase. 100% would buy again.

Fantastic brush just as described. Perfect for powder application. Have used these brushes for years and always great quality.

I was excited to try the Real Techniques Brightening Concealer Brush, but unfortunately, I’m a bit disappointed. While it does apply concealer well, I found it didn’t blend as seamlessly as I hoped, especially in the under-eye area. It’s still a decent brush, but it didn’t quite live up to my expectations for flawless application.

Amazon yet again have delivered, I received these on the same day as I ordered, delivery was by prime and as always very efficient.To the product:-Reason for purchase - As a guy late to the party, I've entered a new world of wearing makeup to go out if i've had a hard week in the office. Rather than using my fingers to apply makeup the time has come to buy some brushes.The product comes in a retail box, meaning it would be ideal as a gift. It comes in a hassle free packaging.I bought the following:-1 x Real Techniques Concealer Brush1 x Real Techniques Expert Face Brush1 x Real Techniques Powder BrushWhen I went to the YSL shop, instead of paying £40 per brush I was advised that these Real Techniques brushes were as good as the YSL ones. Big praise for these 'cheap' brushes. As I had no bushes I was advised to buy the above as my 'core' set.The brushes feel and look great. The metal banding across the middle screams quality. The bristles are fine but strong.I'm not an expert at these things but having tried a friends and then the ones at YSL these are really up there with the best. My friends cheap ones smudged the foundation onto my face and the concealer brush left lines. These brushes however were faultless. Even for a someone with no experience with these things, I made it look easy!To all the haters out there who are screaming that the product is fake. Please check who is selling the product. The main seller is Amazon themselves. If you buy from another seller then I'd agree that they could be fakes however could you imagine what negative press would come from Amazon direct selling counterfeit products? I think Real Techniques would be instantly on the phone to trading standards and proceeding with their legal teams!All in all a great product.* If you have any questions then click my profile and drop me an Message and I will be happy to help you.[...]

I am awarding this brush five stars. Purely based on value for money. A good brush is imperative in the finish and application of make up. I texted it on a liquid foundation and found that it left tram lines accross the skin. The only answer to that, is to use a feather like touch to smooth it out. However, l tested it on moisturiser application and it preformed well. I prefer my finger tips for that though. The next thing that l tried it on, was a solid pressed mineral powder. The results were excellent. I have a very soft kabuki brush, that cost a lot more and yes, it does apply powders beautifully but sometimes you need that extra firm application. Downside....you waste a lot of product using liquid foundation with this brush as it does soak it into the bristles. So it is not cost effective. A sponge wastes foundation as well. Overall it is a good brush for the money, l think best for applying solid powders or solid cream foundations. It would be excellent for face sculpture products! It has the right shape and firmness.

Good quality brush, great size for concealer.

Great quality brush. I live this brand. Good value for money. Highly recommend

Arrived in broken packaging and already fraying. Soft and good when working with powder.
