Real Techniques Starter Set by Samantha Chapman: Review & Photos

Hey Sweeties :) 
When Blanaid from Cloud 10 Beauty offered to send me the Real Techniques Starter Set, I got beyond excited. I have heard so many wonderful things about the Real Techniques brushes and they didn't disappoint me at all. I have played around with all the brushes and now I'm ready to tell you what I think about them :)

The Starter Set from Real Techniques takes eye definition to high definition. The brushes are designed by Pro Makeup artist and You Tube beauty guru Samantha Chapman, and they are going to help you create a look that is pixel perfect even in harsh light. The ultra plush, synthetic bristles are hand cut and 100% cruelty free. The extended aluminum handles are light and easy to use.

 ♥ Deluxe Crease Brush. 

The Deluxe Crease Brush is a soft and oversized brush, that is perfect for effortless contouring. I have been using this brush to apply eye shadow to my crease area, as well as applying highlighter on my cheekbones. I love the size of this brush. I have heard many say that they don't like this brush, because its too big but I really like it and I think it works great.

♥ Base Shadow Brush. 

The Base Shadow Brush is a brush that applies smooth, flawless foundation of color. I love using this brush to apply eye shadow all over my eyelid. I love how soft it is, it is also perfect for blending out eye shadow as well because it is very fluffy and soft.

 ♥ Accent Brush.

The Accent Brush is designed for precision detailing, spotlighting, highlighting and smudging. This brush is perfect for applying eye shadow on your lower lash line as well as applying dark eye shadow in the crease, it is very small and that let's you have more control with it. 

♥ Pixel-Point Eyeliner Brush. 

The Pixel-Point Eyeliner Brush has a tapered cut which is perfect for dense or fine eyeliner application. I like using this brush to apply my gel eyeliners and also to apply eyeshadow in the inner corner of my eyes to highlight them and make me look more awake. 

 ♥ Brow Brush. 

The Brow Brush is a brush that distinctive shape and easily defines eyebrows. Filling in my eyebrows is something that I almost never do, because I get them done by a professional. My next appointment isn't until July 17, which means that I have to fill in my eyebrows until then. I did play around with this brush in conjunction with this review and I have to say that I really like it. It is a very soft brush that is easy to work with. 

I definitely need a little more practice when it comes to filling in my eyebrows, because it isn't something that I'm used to doing. But practice makes perfect, right? :)

My Opinion:
I absolutely love the Real Techniques Starter Set. The brushes are extremely soft and easy to work with. They come in a black Panoramic Case which will keep your brushes organized and safe at the same time. The case is really handy and perfect if you are planning on taking your brushes with you on vacation. I highly recommend that you check out the Real Techniques Starter Set, the quality is wonderful and the price isn't that bad either :)

The Real Techniques Starter Set by Samantha Chapman is available on Cloud 10 Beauty for €24.99. You can find the Starter Set here.
