I feel inclined to pay a small hommage to one of the best (if not the best) make-up brushes out there – the Real Techniques Buffing Brush! It's the epitome of multitasking miracle as it does everything you would ever want as far as your base is in question. From Liquid foundations (e.g.YSL Le Teint Touche Eclat, Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum..), BB creams (L'Occitane Sublime Beauty Cream), CC creams (LRP Rosaliac CC cream), concealers (Bourjois Happy Light, Collistar Lifting Effect, Revelique Touch Up concealer, L'Occitane Immortelle Brightening…) to setting powders (Revelique Soft Compact Powder) and blending out blushes and bronzers (Sleek Blush by 3, Deborah Milano Hi Tech, Bourjois Delice de Poudre…) etc. It works with all those products flawlessly. It has been almost a year of every day use, constant sudsing and rinsing and not a single synthetic hair has shed. Not even one! It's still unbelievably soft and good as new. The only thing that had come off are the letters on the side of its handle but I don't mind as this brush has got some sass and character on its own. I think that this is the only brush I need + one or two for eye shadow and I'm done (perhaps I'll throw in the Blush Brush as well, you know). The only sneaky thing is that it comes as a part of the Core Collection set. I'd prefer if it could be purchased as an individual piece. This way, we're all forced to buy the set. Not the most preferred thing in this world but the Buffing Brush is such a good investment on its own that I don't hold any grudges. I hope you have your own Buffing Brush but if you don't – it's never late to work on that. I know you'll love it because I still am in love with it.
Osjecam potrebu da napravim mali hommage u cast jednog od najboljih (ako ne i najboljeg) make-up kista – velicanstvenog Real Techniques Buffing Brush! Ovaj kist je sve ono na sto se misli kada spominjemo multiprakticnost u najboljem izdanju. Cini sve sto bi pozeljele kada je u pitanju baza. Od nanosenja i besprijekornog blendanja tecnih podloga (npr.YSL Le Teint Touche Eclat, Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum..), BB krema (L'Occitane Sublime Beauty BB krema), CC krema (LRP Rosaliac CC krema), korektora (Bourjois Happy Light, Collistar Lifting Effect, Revelique Touch Up korektor, L'Occitane Immortelle Brightening…) pa do pudera u kamenu te onih za fiksiranje (Revelique Soft Compact Powder) i ublazavanje ostrih prelaza rumenila i bronzera (Sleek Blush by 3, Deborah Milano Hi Tech, Bourjois Delice de Poudre…) itd. Funkcionise sa svim tim proizvodima bez greske. Prosla je gotovo jedna godina od kupovine ovog kista i on je sam samcat uspjesno izvrsavao sve navedene zadatke. Da ne spominjem beskonacno mnogo pranja kroz koja je prosao a da niti jedna sinteticka vlas nije ispala. Niti jedna! Jos uvijek je nevjerovatno mekan te izgleda potpuno novo. Jedino sto se promijenilo je glede slova sa strane drske koja su se izlizala no ne smeta mi posto je nemoguce zamijeniti ovaj kist za neki drugi. Mislim da mi je jedino on potreban u zivotu + jedan do dva kista za nanosenje sjena za oci (mozda bih ubacila i Blush Brush, cisto da ostanem realisticnih ocekivanja). Jedina stvar za koju smatram da je ‘podlo‘ uradjena jeste cinjenica da se ovaj kist moze nabaviti samo u sklopu Core Collection seta. Licno bih mnogo vise voljela da se Buffing Brush moze nabaviti pojedinacno. Na ovaj nacin smo donekle prisiljeni da kupujemo cijeli Core Collection kako bi dosli do ovog kista. Istinu govoreci, nisam previse sretna zbog toga no on je toliko dobar i toliko je dobra investicija da cu zaboraviti na sve zamjerke. Nadam se da imate vlastiti primjerak Buffing Brush kista no ukoliko nemate – nikada nije kasno poraditi na tome. Apsolutno sam sigurna da ce vam se dopasti jer ja sam jos uvijek zaljubljena u njega.
