If you say you don't care about Kylie Jenner, you're a liar and can't be trusted.
I'm not as interested with her as other, lip-filling, Kardashian-obsessed tween followers, but that girl has her make-up on point.
And lucky for us, she's posted a private video to her Youtube Channel, with her Make-Up Artist Hrush Achemyan detailing the look.
I even learned a few things from the tutorial, like applying highlighter under your foundation and using a darker colour foundation for contouring!

For my Birthday wish this year, there was only one thing that reeeaaallly sprung to my mind. I needed to update my brush collection. After strongly considering what I needed in a core set, I purchased:
Real Techniques by Samantha Chapman Base Flawless Core Collection
- Detailer Brush
- Pointed Foundation Brush
- Buffing Brush
- Contour Brush
Real Techniques by Samantha Chapman Eyes Enhanced Starter Kit
- Base Shadow Brush
- Deluxe Crease Brush
- Accent Brush
- Fine Liner Brush
- Brow Brush
Real Techniques by Samantha Chapman Collector's Edition Sculpting Set
- Sculpting Brush
- Fan Brush
- Setting Brush
Real Techniques by Samantha Chapman Stippling Brush
Real Techniques by Samantha Chapman Real Complexion Sponge x2
The first thing I noticed when I purchased them, is how much I personally love their presentation. Beautifully coloured handles, along with Panoramic Cases for the sets and a Brand Exclusive attribute of flat brush ends, meaning you can stand them up on their own if need be.
The Panoramic Case
I've have a few different brands of brushes in the past, from Napoleon Perdis and MAC, to basic sets to fill brush spaces from SAVVY by DB. The biggest difference from RT to any of these past brushes is the full, soft bristles. I honestly have had a few gripes with my MAC stippling brush,
- Firstly, it was expensive for me, but at the time I was willing to spend (In hindsight, $85 fucking dollars! WAS I HIGH???)
- Secondly, I noticed from the second I bought it, the brush would shed its bristles, but being, again, obviously high, I assumed it was because it was new. 10 months later and I have to go to my face with tweezers after every application to grab the long black dual fibre bristles that have shed onto my face (Crazy making).
- And lastly, it was picking up a hell of a lot more product than I was used to, every day I was using twice the amount just to try and load the brush up enough to apply, (But again, in my high state, I blamed the foundation). As well as the application being streaky and visible.
Well it looks like whatever in the Kool-Aid as worn off courtesy of Real Techniques, because I see things more clearly now than ever. The first time using the RT Stippling Brush I saw it picked up and distributed the foundation beautifully. The brush used what was put on there, a first for someone who is so used to loading up my brushes and hoping for the best. RT's helped me become more accurate and precise with my application.
My absolute favourite thing about the Real Techniques range, are the How-To videos available on their website.
For my every day look, I've already used the Buffing Brush for translucent powder, the Detailer Brush for concealer, the Base Shadow Brush, the Deluxe Crease Brush, the Fine Liner with gel liner, the Brow Brush, the Sculpting Brush for contouring, the Stippling and the Sponge for blending.
The Favourites:
The Stippling - for it's great use of product, smooth application flawless finish.
The Deluxe Crease - Perfect size for crease work. Guides itself directly into the crease and applies perfectly.
The Sculpting - The shape allows for great contour work with either powder or cream.
The Disappointments:
The Fine Liner - This brush size is not as fine as what is needed for a gel liner.
The Pointed Foundation - Even though I haven't used it yet, I haven't used a foundation brush besides Stippling for a long time, for me personally, it's unneeded.
Over all I am amazed with the brushes and they have exceeded my expectations of the range. The brushes have really opened my eyes to the beauty of application, I had to use a lot of skill with my older brushes to achieve what was desired, now I am amazed at how the brushes do the work for me. My absolute favourite attribute is of Real Techniques are that they are a 100% Cruelty Free Product aka Vegan!
These brushes are known to be the Make-Up Lover's Best Friend, and I would recommend you seriously consider Real Techniques when adding to your brush collection.
