Real Techniques Brushes & Dove Hand Wash
I have never been big on make-up brushes (usually just buying the cheap Boots own brand) but being a part of the blogging community I thought I should at least give the Real Techniques brushes a go since everyone is raving about them. During my most recent trip to Boots (on payday, which is always a bad idea....) I noticed that they were doing a 3 for 2 deal on almost everything and the RT brushes were included. So I decided to get; the powder brush, the retractable bronzed brush, the blush brush, the foundation brush, the expert face brush & the setting brush. I don't normally use eyeshadow but I want to start so they will hopefully be my next purchase.
My inspiration for buying the Dove hand wash is Zoella's post about how she deep cleans her make-up brushes. It actually works really well and they are lovely & soft afterwards.
Since I haven't had the time, or the money honestly, I have just been using an old candle jar to hold my brushes in. It's only for the time being until I style my room and do it all up but I think it's actually quite cute.

DeleteChecked out your blog, love it so far!! I'll be looking out for new posts :) love S xoxo
I love real techniques brushes, they're like a breath of fresh air; best part about them is that they don't cost an arm & leg like most brush companies. I have their foundation brush, when i wash it. it bounces right back to its full fluffy nature :) i'll have to take you up on that hand wash though :)

You'll love the RT Brushes! :D Its of really good quality, and affordable too. The only thing i didn't like is that it sheds. :(

I haven't noticed them shedding just yet so hopefully they don't too badly, no one likes to try and wipe hair off their face when they've just spent a while doing their makeup :) love S xoxo
