Real Techniques: Expert Face Brush Review!

Hello Bumblebeas!

I have been so excited to review this! This is the Expert Face Brush by Real Techniques (Pixiewoo)
It cost me £9.99 in Boots and it was 100% worth it!

I have only started using make up brushes very recently, but they were standard ones from make up gift sets. I had been looking at the Real Techniques ones for a while wondering if I should go for it and finally I bit the bullet and did it!

First of all, the brush looks fantastic! It is designed very nicely and I actually keep it on display rather than in a pot with the rest of my brushes as it looks way too nice to hide. It feels nice in the hands and it stands up really well by itself.

I use this brush to apply my foundation. I simply squirt a bit of foundation on the back of my hand, dip this brush in to it and apply away!

What is fantastic about this brush is that it is super easy to use and is AMAZING at blending! Not once have I got streaks through my make up or made myself orange.

Furthermore the brush feels great and is easy to clean with no hairs coming out of it.

It makes me like doing my make up a bit more and I find it absolutely fantastic. I am overall very glad I bought it and will definitely be investigating the rest of the collection. I have already recommended it to my sister and Mum!

PROS:
  • Easy to use
  • Looks fantastic!
  • Soft and sturdy brushes
  • Really good at blending
  • Doesn't leave streaks
  • Stands up by itself


CONS:
  • £9.99 can be a bit much to spend if you're not entirely sure you want it/will use it


10/10!

What do you think? Do you use any of the Real Techniques brushes? What do you like about them? Let me know!

Boots Haul!

Hey BumbleBeas!

The other day I decided to treat myself to some new stuff from Boots. You've got to treat yourself once in a while, right?

  1. Real Techniques- Expert Face Brush I have been wanting one of these brushes for a long while! I finally bit the bullet and chose to get the 'expert face' one for my foundation. I love it!
  2. Collection- Lasting Perfection Foundation I have been using the concealer for years and I never realises there was a foundation until recently. I never wear foundation so this was a step up for me!
  3. Collection- Lasting Perfection Concealer I have been using this concealer religiously for years and it is the best concealer ever. However, they recently altered the name, shades and packaging and this is the first time I have bought the new edition! 
  4. Natural Collection- Green Correction Stick This is the second time I have bought this as my first one ran out. I used to use the most perfect green corrector stick from No 7/17 but it got discontinued so I had to find a new one!
  5. L'oreal- Super Liner Gelmatic L'oreal recently either discontinued my usual eyeliner which I had been using every day for years or Boots just don't sell it any longer. Either way I had to find a new eyeliner and this is what I found!
A review for ALL of these products will be coming soon, so look out for those! 
Have you used any of these or want any of it? What do you think of them? Let me know!
