    Hi. My mac brushes which have served me so well are finally falling apart. So I was thinking of trying real techniques (are they in boots liffey v?) Or the sigma ones? Any recommendations appreciated. As budget friendly as possible, thanks :)

    If i were you i'd order off iHerb.com. I got the two sets eyes and face, blush brush and powder brush for €36 delivered. I priced in boots and it was €87 for the brushes I got. Crazy!
    I herb takes a while to deliver but worth it for the saving.
    Before you place the order make sure you google for discount codes!

    I would also recommend ELF studio line brushes. In particular the powder brush and Kabuki. Fantastic

    I have the Sigma Mrs. Bunny kit and think it's amazing, it has every brush you really need (apart from the kabuki brushes which are an absolute must buy) and I love the holder to keep the brushes in! It's €120 for the whole kit but I think it's a very fair price for the set!

    Just ordered my first Real Techniques brush so really looking forward to trying it!

    I 100% agree here. Have the same set and I just love. The only thing I would add is I have the real techniques stippling brush and I wouldnt be without it, it's the only brush Iuse for foundation and in the future I'm hoping to add the roundy detailer real techniques brush (sorry cant think of the name will check it out later) the one the pixiwoos use for under eye concealer as I find the concealer brush in the Mrs. Bunny set is a little flat for what I want. can I ask also what exactly you use kabuki brushes for? What makes them so good and which would be best to try?

    It's the real techniques deluxe crease brush I want.

    I have most of the RT make up brushes and I love them. I'd highly recommend them. Great finish and budget friendly!

    There's also the mrs bunny travel edition for 60, available on cloud10 beauty. It's a great set for eye brushes. It comes With a lovely eye shader brush thats more Densely packed than most so it applies colour and slso blends. It also has a fluffy blending brush, a pencil brush which is not too big, an angled brush, a powder brush, flat foundation brush and an angled blush brush. Only thing youd be missing would be a buffer style brush for foundation and concealer brush.
    I've used the rt eye set and I feel some of the brushes are s little big for my eye shape. I find that the rt sets are a little over priced and there'd be brushes in them you'd never reach for. With the sigma one on the other hand I'd used every one. That's not to say I don't like rt. there are certain brushes in each set that work great- just don't think it's worth buying a set for one brush.
