The Real Techniques Au Naturel Complete Brush Kit is engineered for seamless makeup application, from base to intricate details. Each brush is designed to work effectively with various makeup formulations, including liquids, creams, and powders.
Complexion Brushes (RT 219, RT 220, RT 250): The RT 219 ultimate powder brush is excellent for evenly dispersing setting powders or bronzers for an airbrushed finish. The RT 220 light layers complexion brush and RT 250 perfecting prime brush are ideal for applying liquid foundations or primers, ensuring a smooth, streak-free base. Their soft bristles allow for buildable coverage without caking.
Concealer & Blending (RT 223): The RT 223 blurring concealer brush effectively applies and blends concealer into the skin, minimizing imperfections without tugging or creasing.
Eye Brushes (RT 307, RT 321, RT 304, RT 326): For eye makeup, the RT 307 shading brush is perfect for packing color onto the lid or defining the crease. The RT 321 full coverage brush can be used for broader shadow application, while the RT 304 defining crease brush helps create depth and dimension in the eye contour. The RT 326 flat liner brush allows for precise application of gel or liquid eyeliner, or for defining the lash line with shadow.
Highlighting (RT 428): The RT 428 precision fan brush is versatile for applying highlighter to cheekbones, brow bones, or the bridge of the nose for a subtle glow.
Pro Tip for Eye Application: For a seamless eye look, dip the point of one of the eye brushes (like the RT 304) into an eyeshadow shade and sweep the brush back and forth across the crease until the color is beautifully blended.
Your Real Techniques Au Naturel brushes come ready to use right out of the package. No assembly is required. It is recommended to gently wash new brushes before their first use to remove any manufacturing residue and soften the bristles further. Use a mild brush cleanser or baby shampoo and warm water.
These brushes are designed to be highly versatile and compatible with a wide range of makeup formulations, including:
Liquid Foundations and Primers
Cream Blushes and Concealers
Powder Foundations, Blushes, Bronzers, and Highlighters
Pressed and Loose Eyeshadows
Gel and Liquid Eyeliners
Proper care will extend the life and performance of your brushes:
Regular Cleaning: Clean your brushes weekly, or more frequently if used daily or with different product types. This prevents product buildup and bacterial growth.
Wet the bristles with lukewarm water.
Apply a small amount of brush cleanser or mild soap (like baby shampoo) to the bristles.
Gently swirl the brush on a cleaning mat or in the palm of your hand until clean.
Rinse thoroughly under lukewarm running water until the water runs clear.
Reshaping: Gently squeeze out excess water and reshape the brush head to its original form.
Drying: Lay brushes flat on a clean towel or hang them upside down (if you have a brush drying rack) to air dry completely. Avoid drying them upright, as water can seep into the ferrule and loosen the glue over time.
Storage: Store brushes in a dry, clean place, away from direct sunlight or excessive humidity. Consider a brush holder or roll to protect the bristles from damage and dust. (Note: Kit does not include storage.)
