Real Techniques by Sam chapman and now also her sis Nic chapman.
Hi everyone :) for my first blog post I wanted to talk a little about the Real Techniques makeup brushes by Samantha Chapman who is one half of the amazing Pixiwoo on youtube and now her sis who is her youtube partner the other half of the amazing Pixiwoo Nic chapman is now on board. I know they have been probably talked about and reviewed like a million times but none the less I still feel the need to talk about them even though everyone has been able to purchase them a good while.They were first available in boots in Ireland here a little over 2 years now and I own all the brushes and some of them I have extras of that is how much I love them.
All the brushes have pacific names such as expert face brush and the blush brush and the setting brush and so on. Even though the brushes have names for pacific uses they are actually versatile which I love. I use the stippling brush for blush instead of foundation and I use the crease brush to put on concealer for example so these brushes are amazing because they have so many uses for different application of makeup. The brushes are so soft and lovely to use on the skin and just really create flawless makeup. They are brushes that are comparable to big high end brands like Mac, Bobbi Brown and some what even better as they stand out more with their cool funky colored handles and their price point. They also stand up which they can be displayed easy on desktops and makeup vanities Some of the brushes are available individual and the others come in sets. They have the core collection set which comes with four brushes these are the pointed foundation brush the buffing brush the contour brush and the detailer brush. The price for this set is roughly 25.99 euros and the other set available to buy here in Ireland is the starter set which consists of the base shadow brush the deluxe crease brush the pixel point eyeliner brush the brow brush and the accent brush and this set is also roughly 25.99 euros.The both of these sets come in cool cases which the brushes can be displayed in standing up or packed away to be brought when traveling which is amazing.The rest of the brushes are available separate to buy which are the expert face brush,blush brush,stippling brush,powder brush,setting brush,fine liner brush,foundation brush,shading brush and last but not least available here in Ireland the kabuki brush and the separate brushes all range in price from 10.99 to 18 euros which is brillant because they are so comparable to amazing high end brushes. The brushes are available to buy here in Ireland in boots and also on line on the cloud 10 beauty site but I cannot talk enough good things about these brushes they are amazing I will continue to use these as they are my favorite brush brand ever.
Also there is now a set availible called sams pics which is a limited addition set and there basically sam chapmans favorite brushes from the line.The set includes the multi task brush the buffing brush the setting brush the pointed foundation brush the fine liner brush and last but not least a new and exclusive brush the essential crease brush. So this set is definitely worth a look at and I will blog about it soon in more detail.
There is also the duo fiber set which is also limited edition which has been out a while now but its still available. I will also blog about this in more depth soon :)
Her sis nic is now on bored with the real techniques line which is exciting and hopefully means some new and upcoming stuff. On that note there bringing out some new retractable brushes which I can not wait to get my hands on so stay tuned :)
