To help you brush up on your technique, we are going to take you through the must-have products from Real Techniques from best-sellers to new additions.

Real Techniques Miracle Complexion Sponge

Almost everyone that loves beauty owns a Real Techniques Miracle Complexion Sponge. Helping you achieve a naturally flawless base and blend your foundation into your skin effortlessly, it is no wonder it is a best-selling product.

Ideal for liquid, cream and powder products, the ultra-soft sponge can be used to apply product to large areas with its rounded edge or turned upside down to target smaller areas with its pointed edge. Used slightly damp, it will help you achieve a perfect base which looks just like skin.

Real Techniques Miracle Powder Sponge

Designed specifically for powder products, from setting powders to powder foundations, the new Real Techniques Miracle Powder Sponge allows for seamless, lightweight application which allows powders to blend seamlessly rather than sit on top of the skin.

Covered in a velvety material, the sponge can be used wet or dry and works beautifully with both loose and pressed powders. Blend, bake and set your makeup for a long-lasting finish.
