Product Information
Full details
The Real Techniques Highlight & Detail Brush is designed for makeup enthusiasts and professionals seeking a versatile, dual-sided tool to achieve precise contouring and radiant highlighting. Its primary benefit lies in the ability to handle both liquid base formulas and powder highlighters within a single tool, streamlining your makeup kit. However, users should note that because it is a double-ended brush, it requires specific storage considerations to avoid crushing the bristles on either side.

FAQs
Is this brush safe for sensitive skin?
Yes, the brush is dermatologically tested and uses ultra-soft synthetic bristles suitable for sensitive skin.
Can I use the fluffy side for liquid products?
While technically possible, the fluffy side is optimized for powders; you will get the best, streak-free results using the dense sloped side for liquids.
How do I store a double-ended brush?
It is best stored laying flat in a makeup tray or a protective brush sleeve to keep both ends in good condition.
Does this brush shed bristles?
With proper care and gentle washing, this brush is designed to be highly durable and resistant to shedding.
Are the materials used for this brush synthetic?
Yes, all Real Techniques brushes are 100% synthetic, vegan, and cruelty-free.
Troubleshooting
Bristles are losing shape
Wash the brush and reshape the bristles while damp, then lay it flat to dry completely.
Product is streaky after application
Ensure you are using a stippling (dabbing) motion rather than dragging the brush across the skin.
Cross-contamination of products between sides
Use a quick-dry brush spray and a microfiber towel to wipe the bristles between switching product types.
Pros and Cons
Pros

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This brush does not require any specific setup; it is ready to use immediately. For compatibility, it works seamlessly with all liquid, cream, and powder formulas. To maintain the longevity of the tool:
- Cleaning: Wash the bristles weekly using a gentle brush cleanser or mild soap and warm water.
- Drying: Never leave the brush standing upright while wet, as water can seep into the ferrule and loosen the adhesive. Lay it flat on a clean towel or use a brush drying rack to allow bristles to dry in their original shape.
- Storage: Avoid placing it in a cup holder where one side is pressed against the bottom, as this will deform the bristles. Store it horizontally in a drawer or a designated brush roll.
