Real techniques-a-like brush set

Okay so I'm such a bargain hunter whenever I can be, and I've been after a new set of brushes for a while now ! I was looking at real techniques but couldn't justify the heavy price tag really ! 

My first port of call was eBay, where I came across this set of brushes by journsa ! You can get in gold, pink and blue (I opted for the pink ) a set of 5 full size brushes for £12.99 ! Bargain ! 

I only use 4 of the brushes. Contour, blush, blending and powder. I don't use the middle one !

I've been using these for a few months now and to be honest I can't say anything bad about them ! They do the job I bought them for and they look pretty and girly ! 

I would definitely recommend these for people who want budget real techniques brushes ! 

Have you tried these ?

Benefit stay flawless 15 hour primer

I love the fact that benefit have brought out a new quirky primer ! It lasts for 15 hours (even on my horrid oily skin) , I do still have to touch up with my mally face defender (not all the time) still but overall it is a brilliant primer ! It glides on smoothly and when i put my foundation on with my fingers it blends really nicely ! I like the fact it is in a stick as it isn't messy and you can put it straight on. Its quite a silky feel and It's colourless too which is perfect for any skin tone to use ! I would repurchase this definitely but I have a feeling it's gonna last a while anyway !! Have any of you tried this primer ? Did you like it ?
