Real Techniques Travel Set Review

Beauty 16:00

I am pretty sure Real Techniques Brushes are one of the most popular and affordable makeup brushes. Even though they are completely ancient now, I only got my hands on a few sets for the first time a couple of months ago. I have always been a MASSIVE lover of the Miracle Complexion Sponge, which is also by Real Techniques. It has been an amazing part of my every day make up routine for over a year now but, I thought it was about time to purchase some actual brushes. I chose Real Techniques as they're both cruelty free and vegan, I have also heard amazing things about them and I'm so glad I've finally purchased them, they have made an amazing difference to my every day make up routine and as lame as it sounds, I can't imagine my life without them. Even though I purchased three different sets, the travel set is by far my favourite. It is perfect for travelling but also ideal for everyday use.

The Real Techniques Travel Set includes:

The Essential foundation brush: This brush is perfect for both concealer and foundation, it makes application so effortless whilst also leaving you with a flawless finish. I use this brush on a day-to-day basis to apply my foundation and I am always happy with the final result. Although, I do like to blend out any harsh lines with a Real Techniques buffing brush.

Domed shadow brush: I love using this brush to blend out both powder and cream shadows, which it does a fantastic job at! But I personally think it is too big for shadow application and I end up making a bit of a mess.

Multi task brush: Lastly, but certainty not least is my favourite brush in the set. It definitely lives up to its name and works wonders as a multi task brush. I use this to apply powder AND bronzer! However, I think it is slightly too big for applying blush and I'd suggest using the Real Techniques blush brush. I mainly use this brush for powder and I am always happy with the result, I find that it distributes my powder very well and I'm never left with a cakey finish.

Overall, I LOVE this set and if you are looking for a new set of brushes, I'd highly recommend you look into purchasing these. It makes it so much easier to only have to take three make up brushes on a trip away without having to worry about not being able to create your favourite make up look. Although, if I had to change anything about this set, I would add the buffing brush and the deluxe crease brush to make life a little easier.

Twitter Q&A

Lifestyle 13:00

Since I never properly introduced myself to you guys, I thought I'd do a little Q&A and answer any questions that you may have. Of course I headed over to Twitter and asked my followers to ask me any questions they had in mind and this is what I got:

1. What are your two favourite songs at the moment? Major Lazer feat. Justin Bieber - Cold Water and M.O - Who Do You Think Of?

2. What is your favourite colour? -Turquoise

3. If you could move to anywhere in the world, where would it be? If I could move to anywhere in the world, I would choose Brighton. It is such a beautiful city and everyone there seems so friendly. I am also a big lover of the rain so I wouldn't ever be able to move to a hot country permanently.

4. What inspired you to start blogging? I got inspired by so many people irl and on Twitter but mainly by Zoe Sugg. I've read her blog for nearly 6 years now and I have always loved the idea of starting up my own blog. For years, I have been too worried to start my own blog but after finally plucking up enough courage, here I am!

5. Any good internet friend experiences? Wow where to start?! I have been in so many different group chats and made so many amazing friends because of twitter, including my best friend! That in itself is an amazing internet friend experience. There is a lot of mixed views on having friends online but I think as long as you are safe, it is completely fine!

6. How old are you? I am 17.

7. What is your dream job? I'd love to work with animals and maybe one day have my own animal rescue centre.

8. Do you want to travel the world? YES!! As soon as I leave college, I am travelling to lots of amazing places.

9. If you had 1 hour left to live, what would you do in that time? Since this isn't enough time to travel to any of my favourite places, I'd invite my whole family and my closest friends to a big park near mine. Sounds pretty boring haha but I would just want to say goodbye to people that mean a lot to me.

10. What is your favourite memory? My favourite memory is probably eating at a vegan restaurant for the first time.

11. Who do you look up to the most? My older sister, she is just so strong and has done so much with her life in such a short amount of time. I am so proud of her and she inspires me to work hard for what I want.

Thanks for reading
