I know I say this a lot, but my affinity with all things
makeup did not start too long ago – the obsession has overcome me quite
recently. Anyhoo I was the type who never used makeup brushes for any purpose.
I was a ‘apply-foundation-with-the-hand’ kinda gal and loved it this way. Until
I became a bit conscious of hygiene and my lack of any brushes at all! So I invested
and I invested good.
I still remember the look of longing on the sales assistants
face as I bought the Real Techniques Face and Eye Brush collections last year –
bless her!
Anyway this post is all about one brush, one single
beautiful brush! The Chanel No 1 Powder Brush. This brush is the dream *sighs*.
It applies any powder formula evenly and without leaving any
streaks *rolls eyes* or any residue or even (as some Mac brushes have a
penchant of doing) shedding.
Priced at a whopping £44.00 you can buy the entire Real
Techniques range for that much and more! But once in a while you feel like a
splurge…I have often used this to apply my Chanel Universal Bronzer which as
you all know is a cream formula and therefore this is a great all-rounder.
It has a domed shape so great for bronzing, contouring and
blushing hehe… and I know a few people will die of disgust, but you don’t even
need to clean it often…I simply don’t have the time to go around cleaning my
brushes 24/7 but thankfully this doesn't require that much care…*thank god*
It also comes in a velvet sleeve embossed with the Chanel logo to keep it from getting
dirty which is great! Much better than the Tom Ford range of brushes which come
in a box and nothing else and you basically have to re-mortgage your house to
buy…tut tut Tom Ford.
I just felt like raving about these brushes as no one online
ever does!
