Real Techniques Bold Metals Collection

I wasn't going to do a review on these brushes this early but I cannot contain my excitement!

I (unfortunately) only have two of the brushes at this moment because they are always gone when I can make it to Ulta. 

First things first:

-This is the second line of brushes for Real Techniques

-The Bold Metals collection is made from the highest grade synthetic bristles

-There are 3 different metals (silver, gold, and rose gold) 

-There are 7 brushes total

-The ferrule is weighted so that the brush sits naturally in your hands

I managed to get my hands on the Oval Shadow brush and Tapered Blush brush.

Oval Shadow

Tapered Blush

I just cannot believe the quality of these brushes. The bristles are incredibly soft and luxurious.

They apply powder and cream products equally well.

I will admit that I have only had these for about two weeks so I haven't applied all of my cream and powder products with these brushes, but so far it has been surprisingly good.

If I had to complain about anything (and this is slight) it is that the Oval Shadow brush is a large eyeshadow brush. So it is either best for a one color all over the lid application OR I used it as a blending brush (like a MAC 217) and it worked quite well for blending! 

I do hope they come out with a smaller shadow brush sometime down the road. 

Overall I am super impressed with these brushes and I hope to get my hands on a few more of them!

Do you think you may pick one of these up?
