Brushes Collection Update


Hi, humans!
I've finally updated my brushes collection and got some new ones. I don't have many brushes because I started getting into makeup like a year ago and I'm still learning something new about everything including brushes. I've read and watched tones of reviews on different brushes brands and picked up some very highly reviewed. So this is what I got.

I'm sure you all heard about Real Technique Brushes. I picked the "Sam's Picks" set cause I thought it would be the best option to get to know this brand. And I'm a little bit disappointed. They are not that soft as I thought... And I don't think I'll use at least two of them: the first one, multi task brush, and the third one, buffing brush. I don't know, I don't like them that much as I thought I would. Weird size, rather hard for applying powder or foundation. But the others are good, I like them. The second one is setting brush and I like it for powder, I don't apply it all over my face, only the T-zone and this brush is good for that, especially under eye area. The fourth one, pointed foundation brush, is my favourite, I use it for consealer and it's perfect. The next one is essential crease brush, very nice, good size, good application, just what you need for crease brush. The last one is fine liner brush. I like to apply a little bit of water on it and line my eyes with some brown eyeshadow. It looks so nice and natural, the line is thin as I like. Mush better than using an angled brush.

I heard my favourite youtuber Zoella talked about it a loooong time ago and I've finally found those brushes, I ordered only one just to check it out. This one is a basic eyeshadow brush. I love the colour, I like the quality and I like the fact that it's organic. I'm a little bit crazy about organic products so I fell in love with it instantly. It's very soft and so pleasant. My previous eyeshadow brush was a little bit prickly(is it a right word?). So now I have a good one :)

My first ever mac purchase. I think it's overprised but I like it very much. I knew I'd like mac and I did. Really hope I'll buy something else there very soon. This one I bought for eyebrows and I like the way it works. I'm pretty bad with eyebrows but I hope to improve my technique :)

I know that's a little update but it's quite big for me.
Make sure to let me know what you think about those brushes if you use them. I'd love to know your opinions.

That's all for this time.
Have a nice day :)
Ciao!
