I am OBSESSED with the brushes from Real Techniques and own most of them. For the price point you are definitely getting a great quality multi purpose brush. I've seen the limited edition duo-fiber collection brushes on iHerb for quite some time and finally picked them up for $19.99. These brushes also retail in Australia for $49.95
What Real Techniques has to say...
Includes 3 limited edition brushes:
• duo-fiber face brush: for lightweight application
• duo-fiber contour brush: for controlled contouring & sculpting
• duo-fiber eye brush: for finishing touches to the eye
• a true multi-tasker – duo-fiber bristles work with cream, liquid or powder for an unbelievably air-brushed finish
• ultra-plush, synthetic bristles are hand-cut and 100% cruelty-free
• extended aluminum handles are light and easy to use
The duo-fiber face brush is my least favourite of the three. It's not dense enough to perform well with liquid or cream products. I also don't particularly care for it with powder. This brush is best used for highly pigmented products that you just want a sheer application of.
The duo-fibre contour brush is absolutely perfect for sculpting the cheek bones with blush, bronzer and highlighters. I prefer to use this brush with powder than cream products. This brush also performs better with foundation than the face brush.
The duo-fiber eye brush has become one of my favourites for precise eyeshadow application in the crease. It comes to a nice point that can actually make quite am effective cut crease. This brush has actually encouraged me to buy the MAC 286 Duo Fibre Blending Brush as I am in love with this kind of style brush for eye work.
Whilst the face brush isn't really worth it the other two brushes in the set really make for the $20 price tag. If I had to repurchase I would for the sake of the contour & eye brushes. If you are Australian make sure you don't buy Real Techniques brushes from Priceline - it's SO expensive! Instead buy from iHerb. I have bought so many beauty and skincare items from them and would really recommend for their cheap and fast shipping.
