Real Techniques Brushes & Bloom Remedies purchases


I received some Amazon vouchers for my birthday. I was keen to try Real Techniques brushes as I've heard so many rave reviews.  I picked up the Core Collection for a flawless base (£14.66) and the Stippling Brush (£7.99).

The Core Collection contains:

Detailer Brush: can be used for concealer or as a lip brush.
Pointed Foundation Brush: use with liquid foundation/build custom coverage.
Buffing Brush - for mineral foundation or powder
Contour Brush - for highlighter

Stippling Brush - for foundation for an airbrushed look.

So far I've tried the buffing brush & the Stippling brush and I'm in love! - don't know what too me so long to try them.  Do you use these brushes?  What are your favourites?

My second purchase was some more Bloom Remedies body oils - hugely into body oils at the moment.  See my recent review here.


I picked:

Easy-Love Organic Body Oil (50ml - £8.99) - this is scented with essential oils of Ylang Ylang, Jasmine, Neroli, Sandalwood and Patchouli.  

Sleep-Easy Organic Body Oil (50ml - £6.99) - I already own the bath oil in this scent - so looking forward to using them together for a restful night's sleep.

Marie sent me a sample of Organic Eye Make Up Remover* which is scented with rose - I've only used this a couple of times so far and I am totally in love with it.  Removes all eye make up, leaving the eye area clean.  It is non sting and no greasy film is left over the eyes.  A best seller - I can see why!  Full review will follow.

note: these purchase were made before the Spending Ban kicked in!
