Review on 🌸 Real Techniques Cruelty Free Foundation Brush: Uniquely shaped, color coded, and with synthetic custom cut bristles for even & streak free makeup application by Christina Xiong

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Best for contouring

I recently bought this brush as I'm a fan of the starter kit (eye brush). I mainly used it for contouring but I decided to give foundation a try. This brush is a bit unsuitable for foundation (I use liquid). The bristles are too soft to blend, especially on flat areas of the face. Due to its shape, it is very suitable for applying makeup around the nose, eyes and chin, basically anywhere that is not flat. I still prefer my Shany flat brush for foundation. (UPDATE: The Foundation Brush in the Real Techniques Travel Essentials Set works much better, and the Expert Face Brush works even better!) The width and angle of the brush make it perfect for contouring, which is why I'm giving it 3 stars. but this isn't a brush I'll be using very often because I don't contour much. The size is perfect for shading under the cheekbones or shading around the hair and jawline. It's also well made and a good size. It's easy to clean. I plan to purchase more brushes from Real Techniques in the future and hope to get a full set. UPDATE: Now that RT has an actual Sculpt brush, I'm planning to buy one. I assume this brush will be obsolete once I get another one.
