It seems to me like the hauls just won't end :P I need to stop but ahh well! YOLO as they say :P
So I was recently in Superdrug and I FINALLY found some Real Techniques Sculpting Set brushes (£20.99) that I was after. I also got a highlighter (Opalescent Amber £3.00) and lip liner (Caramel Noughat £1.00) from MUA. I do love that brand - its cheap and the products are awesome.
I must admit - I was a bit late to the real techniques band wagon...I only purchased the travel set around October last year and full size brushes this year. They are pretty good to be fair - I guess I just never got around to buying them. This particular brush set was always sold out in my local Superdrug so I managed to find them after a while! I have been excited to use this set though. It is aimed to contour and enhance. The set contains the following:
"Each brush is a special design: a sleek, high-shine pink instead of the classic matte.
- sculpting brush: features a wide, angled head specially designed to help create defined contours
- fan brush (set exclusive): softly sweeps on powders + whisks away any excess makeup for an even finish
- setting brush: the key to completing any look with a controlled dusting of powder or highlighter
I actually already own a setting brush - but it is always nice to have an extra one - I also recommend this brush highly because you can use it for so many things!
Have you tried these brushes yet? Do you think that these brushes are worth the price?
Anyway do excuse the pictures the best light I had was in my bathroom. Oh in case you were wondering my nail colour is Tart Deco from Essie and the ring is from Next. :)
I find that the highlighter can also be used as a blush or blush enhancing powder but is is really pretty for something so cheap! I love the colour pay off. The lipliner is a perfect nude and for £1 it really is worth it!
Have you tried any of the highlighters from MUA yet? What do you think of the quality and price of these items? :)
Like I mentioned before - I really do love both brands and I look forward to seeing what comes out next. For Real Techniques I really want to try the Bold Metals brushes next they are a bit more pricey but from what I have heard certain brushes are worth having. As for MUA I still want to try some of their new face products this includes their setting powders in the lilac, green, peach and yellow. (I did pick it up but I left it again whoops!)
I hope you are all well! Have a fantastic day!
