Real Techniques Setting Brush is a small, dense, dome-shaped powder brush from the celebrated UK makeup brush brand co-founded by makeup artist sisters Sam and Nic Chapman. Engineered for precision, this compact brush is the ideal tool for setting concealer under the eyes, locking in eye-makeup primers, and adding targeted touches of setting powder to small areas like the bridge of the nose, the inner corners and around the lips. About Real Techniques Real Techniques is a brush and makeup tools brand co-founded by Sam and Nic Chapman — the British makeup artist sisters behind the cult Pixiwoo YouTube channel. The brand became famous for taking studio-grade brush quality to a high-street price point. Real Techniques brushes are designed for everyday users, with colour-coded handles and clear "use this for that" guidance. Key features Ultra-soft synthetic bristles: cruelty-free and vegan; smooth, gentle and non-shedding. Small, compact dome shape: built for precision — sets exactly where you place it. Densely-packed head: picks up just the right amount of powder for targeted setting. Aluminium ferrule + ergonomic handle: stable, weighted and comfortable to hold. Machine-washable: built to last across hundreds of cleans. Key benefits The perfect tool for "baking" — pressing concealer/setting powder under the eyes for a brighter, longer-lasting finish. Precision-friendly: targets exact areas (T-zone, between brows, sides of the nose) without dusting powder all over the face. Soft on delicate under-eye skin — feels gentle even with repeated use. Picks up loose, pressed and setting powders evenly without "kicking up" excess product. Cruelty-free and vegan — synthetic bristles only. Who it's for The Setting Brush is for anyone who wants a more polished, longer-lasting makeup finish — particularly those who use concealer under the eyes or want to "bake" their highlight areas with setting powder. Beginners will appreciate the obvious "where to apply" cue from the brush head; experienced makeup users will appreciate the precision and the quality-to-price ratio. How to use Apply concealer and any cream products to the face first. Dip the brush head lightly into your setting powder (loose or pressed). Tap off excess powder by tapping the handle gently against the back of your hand. Press the brush onto the skin — under the eyes, around the nose, in the centre of the forehead, or anywhere you want a longer-lasting matte finish. Don't sweep; press and roll. To "bake": apply a more generous layer of powder, leave for 5–10 minutes, then dust away the excess with a fluffier powder brush. Care Wash regularly with a brush cleanser or gentle shampoo. Rinse with the bristles facing downwards (never let water run into the ferrule). Reshape and lay flat to dry.
