Sam Chapman hit the nail on the head! I absolutley love this makeup brush line. I have most of the brushes (even bought doubles of some) in the Real Techniques collection and they are incredibly soft and very affordable. There are only a couple that I don't find very useful to me personally but for the quality and price you just can't beat it. I have tried many different types of brushes as a beginner makeup artist and I turn to these brushes day after day. The only con I can mention is that even though some are designed to stand up on a table, they are a little shaky espcially if you bump your table or tap them accidentaly. But like I said before, that isn't enough of a flaw to not use these brushes. I recommend them to anyone looking for good quality, affordable, travel friendly, practical brushes, from beginner to pro. Fabulous!
I've had my trusty set of Real Techniques brushes for about four years and recently went to finally replace them. I bought this brush first as my old powder brush is (just now) beginning to become a bit rough and scratchy. HOWEVER, I received this and tried it out only to find that it's significantly rougher on my face than my four year old one. It's also about half of the size of the old brush, which means I have to spend twice as long, use twice as much effort, and twice as much product in order to get the same result. I've noticed this trend in Sigma recently too. These bigger brush companies are so hyped up that they can afford to reduce the quality without many customers noticing, but it's truly sad to see it come from a seemingly ethical brand like Real Techniques. At this point, I'm better off using my old powder brush still, and it's good to know I'll have to find a new company to buy my makeup brushes from. Utterly shameful.

I love this brush! It's so soft, and it's large enough to fit in all the right places on your face! It's super affordable, too.
Sheri from Arkansas
Great tool for buffing!!
Lbirmi from Ga
Love it and the least expensive brush I have purchased
Kacey from Portland
Really works with powder, very soft!
IzzyG from Illinois
Love this brush for everyday bronzer!
Kendra from Washington
Only purchased this when I finally bought some nicer setting powder & OMG does it deliver! I like the thicker handle, how soft the bristles are, that it's easy to clean, and that it is durable! This brush also does a fairly good job of applying powder evenly as long as you tap it off so as to not pick up too much product.
Bea from CA
Does exactly what I need it to and provides even coverage. Love it!
Bianca from Charlotte, NC
LOVE this to apply my finishing powder and bronzer. It's so fluffy and none of the hairs fall out.

It's a solid brush. big fluffy and doesn't shed. The only thing is that the handle on the brush is chunky and takes up too much room in my makeup brush holder.
Kass from Texas
I love the bristles, they're super soft! Not to mention the color is very pretty as all RT brushes are. Now for functionality: I use it to dust off after baking. The bristles are light and feathery so they dont mess up your canvas. 10/10
Megan from South Carolina
This brush idea excellent. I've been using it for a couple weeks now with no shedding. It's so soft too.

This is a good powder brush. However, I wish it were a bit more dense. There seems to be a bit extra fallout compared to other brushes in the past. If you like a light and insanely soft brush, then this one is for you. Looking for something dense, maybe try something else.
JJ from WA
Its lighter than the original powder brush but it fits my face perfectly and super soft does the job.
Bailey from Birmingham
I wanted a new bronzer brush because mine was getting old and very rough and bristly. This brush is super soft and I like using it for bronzer because it's just the right over-size for me.
jackie from texas
this brush is SO soft and my skin is pretty sensitive so i need soft brushes so i don't get irritated, so this brush is incredible!!
Liz from Texas
If comparing to Ecotools, this is bigger and more pinched at base. Much softer than Ecotools. Washes clean and no shedding.
Michelle G from San Marcos
It applies nicely and is super soft on the skin. I love how delicate it applies the makeup and helps blend together
rita from michigan
this brush is amazing. inexpensive and still so good. brush hairs don't fall out, it's super fluffy and good for SO MANY USES.
WM from Boston
I bought this brush for body highlight on my shoulders and chest. It's the perfect size for that. It's probably too big for your face, unless you want a brush to sweep all the powder off after application with a sponge. It's big and fluffy (which I love), so you wouldn't have fine control on your face.
Rayna from Florida
Real techniques have the best brushes, they are easy to use and flawless makeup application.......treat yourself to this brand for makeup application.

not as dense as I would like for a brush that size, elf brushes are better in my opinion
Lovin' Life from SC
Love this brush! Beautifully applies translucent powder.
Martha from Florida
I love this brush. I have been searching for something like it for years and this is it. I love it for bronzer. Even with bronzers that aren't that great... this brush just works wonders.
Joy from Florida
Good brush- a little on the big side.
