Real Techniques Cheek Brush!

Im going to show you a few ways in which you can use the Real Techniques Cheek Brush and multitask it! I love brushes that can be used for many different things and it also saves you a budget! This brush is domed shaped and its not too dense but not too fluffy so it's a good all rounder, it does only come in the nics picks set but if you can get hold of it then do! 

1. First off, you can use this brush for foundation. When you apply foundation with this, it just gives a flawless finish because sometimes you don't want to use a super dense brush to pack on the coverage, so on them days were you want to apply your foundation very lightly, this is perfect!

2. Blush is the obvious one as it is called a Cheek Brush. This does apply a good amount of blush to your cheeks as it has that ever so slight dense feel to it but it also blends everything out as you apply from the fluffy part of it. You can go as light or as heavy as you want with this just with the amount of pressure you apply.

3. You can also use it for contouring. Normally you would imagine a contour Brush to be very thin and precise but this is completey the opposite. I use this whenever I feel like I want a slight thicker contour on a day to day basis, it does work really well for that so give it a go! 

4. I use this Brush for an all over glow as well, especially in the summer. I like to take a highlighter on this and dust it all over the high points of the face, it applies the product really beautifully and the amount is just perfect!

So that's all I like to use this Brush for! What's your favourite multitask brush?

Real Techniques Nic's Picks Collection!

I only recently got my hands on the Real Techniques Nic's Picks Collection and I have been using them every single day constantly since I got it - as you can see they are a bit dirty but I put it back into the packaging to show you ;-) -! I know this collection came out a while ago but it is still available on allbeauty.com .

These brushes are exactly the same quality as the rest of the Real Techniques brushes, they are super soft and they do not shed. With this collection I mainly had my eye on the first brush which is the Duo-Fibre Face Brush and it didn't let me down, it is by far my favourite brush out of all of them! I use it for a light application of powder, bronzer and blush and it is also great for cream products, I absolutely love it!

The second brush is the Cheek Brush and after playing around with it, I prefer to use this as a contour brush. I'm not a big fan of it for blush but I really like it to apply a thick but still defined contour although it is also great for cream products too!

The third brush is the Angled Shadow Brush and I really do like this brush. It is perfect to apply that crease colour and whilst applying it, it blends out the edges beautifully too so the brush does all the work for you so it is a crease brush and a blending brush in one!

The fourth brush along is the Base Shadow Brush, I already own this brush from the Starter Kit but I am happy that I have another one so I can use one to apply and the other one to blend. This brush is stiff enough to apply a wash of colour to the lid but still fluffy enough to blend out the shadow nicely.

The last brush is the Eyeliner Brush, I was really looking forward to using this brush because I needed a new eyeliner brush for gel eyeliner but for me it is just too thick. It is good for applying a thin line across the lash line but it is too thick to do a wing so you don't get that nice sharp flick.

So that is my overall review on this set! What do you think?
