real Techniques Starter Set

  • Eye definition goes high definition with our revised starter set.
  • Base shadow brush: applies a smooth, flawless foundation of color.
  • Deluxe crease brush: soft, oversized design for effortless contouring.
  • Accent brush: for precision detailing, highlighting and smudging.
  • Fine liner brush: for precision application of liquid of cream eyeliner.
  • Brow brush: distinctive shape easily defines eyebrows.

Designed with pro makeup artist Samantha Chapman, Real Techniques brushes combine high-tech materials with innovative design to make creating a pixel-perfect look easier than ever: Taklon bristles are ultra plush and smoother than the hair you’ll find in other brushes. Since taklon is synthetic, it’s 100% cruelty-free. The soft fibers help create a flawless, high-definition finish in any type of light, from sunlight to harsh indoor lighting. The color-coded system corresponds to the key steps of makeup application so you can create a flawless base (copper), enhanced eyes (purple), and the perfect finish like a pro (pink). Each brush head is hand-cut to the perfect shape, allowing for precise application from dense coverage to a soft, delicate finish. The collection is suitable for a wide range of products and every makeup need – from powders, creams, and liquids to mineral makeup, highlighter, and shimmer. Brush names on the handles make for easy reference when creating your favorite look.

    Incredibly versatile brush set at a great price, February 5, 2012

    I purchased this brush set at Ulta probably six months ago and in all honesty, I use at least one of these brushes every single time I put on makeup (5-6 times per week). The brushes are great quality. The bristles are super soft and they’re synthetic so they don’t soak up products and are especially great at applying any creamy products (cream eye shadows, concealer, etc). I wash mine 2-3 times per week and they don’t shed at all and have kept their shapes beautifully.

    I find the base shadow and the crease brushes to be absolutely essential to my cosmetics routine. The base shadow brush is similar to the MAC 217, but slightly smaller, which I love. It is so useful! And while I rarely use the crease brush on my crease, I use it all the time as well. I use the crease brush to apply/blend cream products. I use it on cream eyeshadows, cream eye bases, eye primers, concealers, etc. I use the accent brush less often, but it is great for any type of detailed application. When I do need and angled brush, I prefer the Real Techniques brush to far more expensive brushes from MAC and Sephora. The pixel point brush is one that I use very rarely only because I use eye liners with built in applicators, but again, if you needed a precision brush, it would do nicely.

    All in all, these brushes are a GREAT deal. A single MAC brush would cost more than all 5 of these brushes and in my experience, not hold up as well. I love these brushes and I really wish Amazon would restock this line so I could purchase some more brushes.

    I thought brushes of this quality were way beyond my budget. Even when I saw that Samantha and Nicola Chapman (makeup artists known as Pixiwoo on YouTube) had produced and were using their own line of brushes I didn’t think I’d be able to afford them….then I researched the price her on Amazon….and now they’re mine!
    These are well constructed brushes, all synthetic and vegan friendly. They come in a wonderful holder that serves as a stand, and quite simply I couldn’t be without them.
    Give yourself a treat and get these.and your makeup application will improve beyond imagination. A bargain at twice the price so my fave buy of this year.

    I could not, for the love of all good things, do a good job applying eye shadow. I had no idea what to do. Even after watching tutorials on YouTube, my work did not look as good, at all. That was until I got these brushes!!! I went to watch the video on how to use the brushes (I was scared because they look too big) and it was easy, fast and look so professional. I was really pleased. The crease brush looks very big but if you use it as intended it works wonderfully. I recommend to watch the video on how to use the brushes. It seems like some people did not know what to do with them (the bad reviews), neither did I when I first got them. Now I am being asked by my friends to do their makeup on special events because they want that professional finish look. With these brushes I can do my eyes in like 5 minutes, and they look fantastic and natural. (You must do the eyes first, like with any set of brushes, and then the foundation, in case you have to clean excess off your cheeks) I did not have any of the problems other people mentioned, except for the old eyeliner which was indeed too thick, unless you are going for a dramatic look, but it looks like they change it for the fine eyeliner to please the customers. Nice! 🙂
    Overall I do recommend these brushes even for beginners (just like me), but make sure you watch the instructional video. The video is quick and easy to understand, and it is easy to find on YouTube too. The price is very good for what you can accomplish with these brushes.
