    I have used Touche Eclat for years - the only time I had trouble with the brush smelling was when I bought it from an online trader (not a chemist btw).

    I sent it back to YSL and was told that only the products sold from an authorsied dealer are guaranteed as those sold by anyone other than YSL are usually returned or out of date stock which is probably why mine was off. I also bought a MAC lipstick from the same online retailer and the shape of the lipstick was one that MAC stopped using years ago.

    While I love a bargain as much (if not more!) as everyone else just beware when you are using something on sensitive skin!

    Thanks for the info. I have only ever bought online, so have nothing to compare with.

    Oh right, so I have an 'off' touche eclat! :o:o I might have known £14.50 was too good to be true! I'm wondering now that if I get a total original from Mr Laurent himself, it'll do an even better job? wow.. :cool:

    Diamonds I am not sure if your TE is off but none of the brushes I had used had ever had any scent at all - then I bought one that smelled so bad I couldn't use it, it was putrid! That was bought from a web based cosmetics retailer who didn't want to know when I complained.

    I am sure there are online traders who have current merchandise but it's just advice for those who may be extra sensitive like I am...

    Now anyone know of cheap Botox LOL

    Sam26 - I was trying to be really clear when I said I bought mine from a cosmetics warehouse who clearly were selling old stock...I don't want to name one place over another but I certainly didn't buy my stuff from yours...unfortunately I used a company with no customer care whatsoever!

    Now I must go as it is way past Cinderella time and tomorrow I will need a full vat of concealer let alone a wand :O)

    Can a guy wear this without it being at all noticeable that you are wearing make-up? I have darkish circles under my eyes and I've read that make-up artists use this on actors to hide things like this. Too scared to ask at a make-up counter so thought I'd ask my MSE friends.......

    After seeing how wonderful it is on me my brother in law now uses it all the time. It's wonderful.
