Hi,
I need contouring brushes, to be specific.
I usually buy MAC brushes but would like to know of cheaper yet good quality brushes please.
TIA

Real Techniques.

They're as good as if not better than MAC brushes. They do a specific contour brush. And their expert face brush is amazing for applying foundation.

Thanks for the quick reply.
Are they sold online? Do Boots do them?

Yes I think Boots and Superdrug

I use Superdrug rather than Boots and they definitely stock them.

Amazon also do them. You can buy individually or as sets.

They're designed by MUA Sam Chapman (Pixiwoo on YouTube along with her sister). She does amazing tutorials including ones on using their brushes Smile .

I have always bought MAC brushes, I have been very impressed the real techniques brushes - particularly the foundation brushes.

I do think a good brush kit needs a few MAC 217s, if you watch pixiwoo videos they still use MAC 217s even though Samantha Chapman is behind the RT brushes.

Real techniques are fab, the expert face brush and blusher brush in particular

Philoslothy · 02/01/2014 00:45

Eco tools are also good,I bought a set for my daughter. This blusher brush is great

You can often get RT and Eco tools on 3 for 2 in boots.

Thank you all - especially so late at night!
Have the RT core set in my amazon basket ??

Definitely real techniques, much better than Mac etc they apply make up well and are so easy to clean, they dry quick too.
