Hi

Has anyone tried these? If so what are your thoughts?

Thinking about getting the expert face brush, setting brush and powder brush as they are 3 or 2 in boots. Any thoughts?

Thanks

I have the expert face brush, the big blush brush, the pixel eye brush and a couple of others. I really like them, the expert face brush makes my foundation look a million times better than it did and means i can apply a much lighter layer so i can wear things like doublewear without looking like a masked clown!

They were on noy one get one half price in superdrug the.other day

I think they are great for the price, they wash well, don't shed hairs and are nice and soft. IMO the face brushes are better than the eye brushes.

I have,

The core collection (I only really use the buffing brush from that, it is v good for buffing in powder foundation though)

Blush brush, one of the eye shadow brushes, the expert face brush (good for liquid foundation)

The stippling brush (good for liquid fdtn, highlighter, cream blusher or any really highly pigmented blusher as it allows much better control of application)

The big powder brush, which is fine, does the job and is nice and soft.

I'm slightly brush obsessed so that's why I have a few in my collection!

I have the expert face brush, the blush brush, the stippling brush and the set with face brushes.

I quite like them, although I do prefer real hair brushes for powders.

I would buy the expert face brush again. It is very good.

The other brushes aren't bad - I just have other brushes that I prefer over the RT ones. As I don't have any eye brushes from RT, I don't know if they are as good or better than the ones I've already got from Mac.
The stippling one is as good as a (slightly smaller) Mac version IMO.

Sorry, rubbish job of splitting that list. I have 8 RT brushes (3 in the core collection, 5 individuals)

Expert face brush is great for compacts and liquid foundation

I bought these recently

Very pleased with them. Good price for a lot of brushes and just as good as expensive brushes.

Thanks everyone I got the expert face brush, stippling brush and powder brush. Tried them today and very happy.

Thanks for your advice.

Oh and if anyone else is thinking about them they are on 3 for 2 and boots have triple points over £30 until Monday
