FAQs
Are these brushes cruelty-free?
Yes, all Real Techniques brushes are 100% synthetic and cruelty-free.
Can I use the sponge dry?
While it can be used dry, the sponge is specifically designed to work best when damp to provide a seamless, skin-like finish.
Can I use these brushes with powder products?
These brushes are optimized for liquid and cream formulas, though the Blonzing Brush can be used for light applications of powder bronzer.
How often should I clean the brushes?
For best performance and hygiene, we recommend cleaning your brushes once a week.
What is the best way to clean the makeup sponge?
Use a specialized sponge cleanser or mild soap, rinse with lukewarm water, and gently squeeze until the water runs clear.
Troubleshooting
Brush bristles are losing their shape
Clean the brush thoroughly, reshape while damp, and allow to air dry completely laying flat on a towel.
Sponge is absorbing too much product
Ensure the sponge is thoroughly saturated with water and squeezed out until damp before use to minimize product absorption.
Streaky application when using liquid products
Ensure you are using a light tapping or stippling motion rather than dragging the brush across the skin.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep these tools in top condition, ensure brushes are cleaned weekly using a gentle brush cleanser or mild soap and warm water. When washing the brushes, avoid soaking the ferrule to prevent the glue from loosening. After cleaning, reshape the bristles and lay them flat to dry. The makeup sponge should be rinsed thoroughly after every use and replaced every 1-3 months, depending on frequency of use. This set is fully compatible with all liquid, cream, and gel-based makeup formulations.
