I do not own them but I have been thinking of getting new brushes and have heard nothing but good things. I want to hear your honest opinion pros and con's before making my purchase. :) Not that they're to expensive, but I can also get more value for my money IF they aren't living up to the hype. (which seems like they are) so lmk! thanks lovelies!!

I just got some real technique brushes and I love them! They're very nice quality and very soft. I don't really like the base shadow brush but all the other brushes I've tried are fantastic and defiantly worth the buy

The stippling brush is just amazing! All my friends use it and the expert face brush :)

I'm kind of on the fence about them. They are hit or miss for me. I love the stippling face brush and the tiny eyeshadow brush (and the other small shadow) that that comes in the starter kit. The brushes aren't soft and are a bit too densely packed to really blend out things. I don't think the starter kit is worth it. You can get MUCH better brushes even at that price. I recommend coastal scent brushes. I got 12 brushes for $17. They are so soft and lovely to use

Thank you! love these mini reviews so far! keep them coming!
@jaclyn I own SK brushes and I love them! thanks for your review!

@Symone: I do own CS brushes and I love them! I just wanted to add to my collection a little something different but I want something that blends, so I'm not too sure about investing on them. thanks for your review!

SOME of the brushes are worth the hype,I lovee the Buffing brush,Contour brush and Stippling brush.I don't own the eyeshadow brushes and the blush brush tho,bcz I wasnt much interested in them and the blush brush just looked to big to apply blush,lol.
What I like about those 3 brushes are that
-They're synthetic,so they don't absorb the product I'm working with.
-They're not dense at all,which is why the washing process is much easier.
-The bristles are not harsh,they're soft yet gives me the coverage I like.The buffing brush is not for full coverage btw!
-The contour brush is perfect for contouring.
I can't seem to use the foundation brush from the core collection in any way since its too small for actually applying foundation,thats the only one thing I regret! Becz I don't like spending money on something and not use it.You can look up reviews and if you like it then get the Core collection to start with or just try out only one brush.Maybe the Stippling brush,Expert face brush or the Contour brush.But again,they are synthetic,if your into natural fibre ones then don't get these!
Hope I helped :)

You definitely have Sabera thanks! ;)

I have all of the eye brushes, the powder brush, setting brush and the sponge, I have yet to be disappointed with any of them. Like the other ladies I too love the coastal scents and Sonia kashuk. But these are so so soft and versatile. I have never had an issue with them taking long to dry even though they are dense. I'd say they are worth the buy especially if you buy them at ultas bogo sales they have on them, and you can use the 3.50 off coupon!

I don't like them that much. I got the core collection with the face brushes... the buffing brush sucks up ALOT of product and is streaky. The large powder brush is nice and soft. I like the contour brush for setting my under eye concealer, don't use/like the pointed foundation brush or the detailed brush. I'd try something else...

I love them. I don't always use all of them in the way they are intended for but I find uses for all of them. I use one of the flat foundation brushes for applying face masks evenly. I hate that type of brush for foundation anyway. I have had a couple of my sets for almost 2 years now and they have held up beautifully. I have heard stories of them doing strange things and shedding or breaking but I have never experienced that with any of mine. There isn't a single one I can I absolutely dislike.

Love them. It's not a brush but try their version of the beauty blender… I feel unlike it better than the original. And it's cheaper!
