Real Techniques Bold Metal brushes

Real Techniques Bold Metals

Like the rest of the beauty community, I absolutely love the original Real Techniques brushes.  Affordable, good quality and with a really good range of shapes, some of them quite unique to the cheaper end of brushes.  From the Buffing brush to the Setting brush to the Accent brush, they are great staples to my own collection and to my kit.  I was very interested to see that Real Techniques were bringing out a more premium range, the Bold Metals.  These feature slimline metal-effect handles and are meant to be a lot softer.

Real Techniques - Nic's Picks Set

Real Techniques Nic's Picks

I was supposed to be on a spending ban (self-imposed, again) for September but admittedly broke it for the Chapman sisters' latest offering to the beauty world.  The new Real Techniques set, Nic's Picks, is officially released on the 1st of October but some online retailers had it to sell early.  I got mine from Escentual.  I couldn't resist when I saw it was available early and was included in their sale.

(Don't worry mum/dad/husband, the spending ban has otherwise been maintained).
