Real Techniques launch Christmas 2017 collection
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.At this time of year the beauty aisles of your favourite department store can feel like a treasure trove of limited edition products, but knowing which ones are worth investing in and which are simply covered in Christmas-themed packaging to lure you in can be tricky.
One brand that’s exceeding all expectations on the festive front is Real Techniques, a company founded by Youtube sensations Pixiwoo – aka Sam and Nic Chapman – that has rapidly become every beauty buff’s go-to for affordable brushes.
From the Core Collection to Powder Bleu and the bestselling Miracle Complexion Sponge, it seems that, somehow, each and every launch has outdone the last, and their newest endeavour is no exception.
An often-overlooked part of the day, everyone loves the idea of waking at the crack of dawn eager to unveil an oversized sock bursting with decadent mini treats.
And that’s exactly what the brand has on offer with its trio of sleigh-worthy stocking stuffers including a Mini Medium Sculpting Brush, Mini Expert Face Brush, and the acclaimed Miracle Complexion Sponge. It’s the little things that count, after all.
Alternatively, we love their take on the annual beauty advent calendar with the Ultimate Sponge Set, which means you get to countdown the 12 days of Christmas with a new sponge every morning.
Whether you’re giving the gift of a flawless complexion or looking to update your own stash, Real Techniques has covered all bases with its gift sets for the holiday season.
From limited edition brushes to help create party-ready eyes, to curated collections dedicated solely to colour correcting, draping and even strobing, this year’s festive offering looks set to top the wishlists of beauty lovers everywhere, pro or otherwise.
