instead of paying £40 per brush I was advised that these Real Techniques brushes were as good as the YSL ones
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.[...]

Does the job perfectly
I am very pleased with this brush. I bought it after seeing various makeup artists on YouTube using these brushes to apply foundation, including Pixiwoo. One of the Pixiwoo ladies is behind this range of brushes. The bristles are very dense and quite soft, so it is comfortable to use. It is absolutely brilliant for applying liquid foundation for a natural finish with no harsh line along the jaw line. If you use it with a light touch around the forehead and eye brow area and edges of the face, there are no tell tale thick patches of foundation.It blends very nicely around the eye area with the concealer I use for my dark eye circles. Also if you happen to apply a bit too much blusher you can gently buff over it with this brush and it will soften it a bit.The price is very good for the quality of the product and I would definitely recommend it over the flat style foundation brushes or sponges. Sponges absorb way too much of your expensive foundation, whereas this seems very economical. It also cleans easily with warm water and shampoo.

Soft, absolutely no hair loss
I've been using this to apply both heavy foundations and lighter blur creams. It's great at spreading evenly and doesn't absorb too much product. Great value for money too.Pros: good even distribution with no bristle lossCons: the brush head could be larger.

Does what I need it to.
I use this brush to apply L'Oreal Age Perfect Makeup balm foundation. For the price, it does a surprisingly good job. No streaks, good distribution, and buffs well on my sensitive skin. The bristles have some density, and handle is nice in your hand. I think it's a reasonable price for what you get. (In the 8 pound range). In fairness, I didn't purchase it to be a workhorse brush. It fits my needs.

Real techniques face brush.
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.
