These brushes are great for beginners! Real Techniques has created a fantastic line of brushes that I would recommend to anyone just learning about makeup. Sam and Nic Chapman are what I would consider the first Beauty YouTubers. They first started posting makeup tutorials in June of 2007!! Here is a link to their coveted channel.
The two brushes that I recently picked up (the expert face and sculpting brushes) would be perfect for someone just starting with makeup or someone who has never used makeup brushes before. I was able to score these two in a buy one get one free deal at Ulta. I highly suggest waiting for this sale to come around before picking yours up!
The Expert Face Brush
The expert face brush is used to apply foundation, either powder or liquid. The rounded top allows you to really blend and buffer your foundation to create a flawless look.
The Sculpting Brush
The sculpting brush is used to contour your face and apply bronzer, this could also be used to apply blush. The dense, narrow, and slanted shape of this brush allows you to really sculpt out your cheekbones and contour your face. Because the brush is dense it also allows you to blend it out. Again, creating that flawless look.
As I had said previously, I would highly recommend these brushes to any beginner! Sam & Nic have created a fabulous line and actually have YouTube videos teaching you how to use each brush. It’s fantastic!
