”My favorite ever brush for applying liquid foundation, I use mac studio sculpt which has quite a thick consistency and I have struggled to blend it in the past with other brushes however this brush makes the process quick and easy. I have the majority of real techniques brushes in my collection and this one is my favorite along with their stippling brush. Big thanks to Sam and Nic chapman and the company behind these brushes for making great products and selling them at an affordable price.”

”I didn’t expect to like this brush but I do. I like it a lot! It´s soft, but not too soft, and it applies mineral makeup really well. It doesn’t shed and is easy to clean as it’s not too dense. Awesome makeup brush!”

Great for applying liquid foundation
I used to use a flat foundation brush for my liquid foundation but I found it hard because it would leave some streaks behind and I found it hard to blend the foundation using the flat brush alone (still had to use a sponge afterwards). After some googling, a lot were recommending this Real Techniques Expert Face Brush and it was on BeautyMNL so I decided to try it out. Applying my liquid foundation is now a breeze thanks to this brush. It's short and densely packed bristles make blending a breeze and it leaves no streaks. Bristles are very soft as well and I like that they're cruelty free. I also like how natural looking the finish is when I apply my liquid foundation with this brush. At first, I was kind of hesitant to get this because it was quite pricey for me but now I can say that this investment was worth it :)

Great on your first use only :(
Save your money and get the Sigma 3DHD® Kabuki Brush instead, it's double the price but waaaay way much better than this. The first time I tried the Expert Face Brush, I was impressed because it applies liquid foundations seamlessly and beautifully. After each use, as foundation dries up on its bristles, the effectiveness of this brush just goes downhill. You have to wash and clean it after each use for it to work, ain't nobody got time for that. I wash my brushes on a weekly basis only, so the Expert Face Brush is a big no-no for me.

Sheds A LOT
I really wanted to love this brush so bad. The hairs are so soft and are densely packed, which makes it perfect for foundation application. However, after a few washes, it started to shed so much! I barely had the brush for 2 months and I wash my brushes only once a week but the structure of the hairs have completely changed. It's so uneven and not even in a way that works. In short, this would've been promising if it didn't shed too much!

Worth the Investment!
This Expert Face Brush by Real Techniques is a staple in many people's makeup tool collection, and for good reason! This definitely blends foundation/concealer beautifully! This is one of those brushes that I often grab when doing my foundation. I really love how soft and compact the bristles all, but they're not stiff or pokey at all. Definitely a good investment!

A Good Tool for Liquid Foundation
What I like about this product is it's compact bristles, it picks up the right amount of product and when I do a stippling motion to put my liquid foundation, it does evenly spreads it. What I don't like about it initially was it feels a bit itchy/prickly on my skin. I've been using this for two months now and I get the hang of how I can make it work for my liquid foundation. A combination of stippling motion to put the foundation and small circular motion to buff and even it out is the best way to apply the makeup. Overall it's a good tool for liquid foundation, but compared to a similar compact mushroom brush, the Expert Face Brush works the same. I tried using this for countour powders and it also works as it has a small bristle-head that gets into the smaller areas of the face.

My one and only
If you get asked to just have one brush for the rest of your life, choose this. You can use it for so many different formulations and purposes. From creams to powder, you can use it as for applying your base, cheek color, bronzer, contour, highlight, powder!! It applies product seamlessly onto the skin
