I would go for the RT. I have some of their brushes (though not this one) and I have been really impressed with them.

I recently got the real techniques starter set they are really good brushes and quite cheap. The real techniques one is also a lot cheaper than the No.7 one.

Hi there. I am an on/off lurker here for months. I just wonder - if you guys might consider using some of those "off" products as household cleaners? Should work OK right? Like shower gel can be used for scrubbing bath tubs and wash basins or even bathroom floor... I know the ultimate aim is to reduce stash size but pouring things away seems a bit wasteful?

Indeed-- I put the showergel in the cistern so when it flushed it got a bubbly clean. I also have used showergels as a clothes detergent too.

I will have some INs to report later, I stocked up on a HG item that is NEVER on offer, but it was today!!!

Real Techniques every time, I don't have this one but I have the face and eyes starter sets, the expert face brush and the kabuki brush, they are so soft it's incredible!

Had to TA 2 Bayliss and Harding shower gels because they made my skin itch so much!

Now on to a mini S&G shower gel and then that's all the stash built up from Christmas gone.

One UU and an IN to report.

UU: Small tube of LE orange flower hand wash. Used this at work as the handwash there was making my hands so dry. Have had to use some at work today as I forgot to take my replacement tube with me and lo and behold my hands are itchy and dry tonight. Have just put my new tube in my bag and will have to keep an eye on it getting low so i can replace it again.

IN - an order not yet received (only just ordered it). Cheapsmells have a half price Decleor sale on for one week only so I have ordered a replacement Herbal Clay Mask as my tube is now cut in half and I think I may have about 4 or 5 applications in it. I was going to use an elemis mask next and then replace this but I think this offer is too good to pass up. Can't say how impressed I am with this product, not just its performance but the value. The tube has lasted me a year with me using it twice a week.

Todays UU
S&G Flirtago - was part of a gift set (a long time ago) I didnt find it moisturising enough for my skin I have a few remaining in the stash but WNBA.

GA
L'oreal everpure shampoo I bought for my friend to see if it improved her scalp

TA Benefit Eyecon - mini tube from set. Really stung round my eyes so not worth using for such a small amount.

UU Neom Moroccan rose blush hand cream WBA this was a mag freebie got another couple in the stash lovely stuff but wouldn't buy full price!

UU Balance Me face cream 10ml WNBA this was to rich for my face so used it as hand cream. I haven't liked anything in this range as I am not keen on the scents.

Another UU

Dr Hauschka Rose Body Moisturiser 10ml - added this to my maybe list seemed nice but it was a tiny tube. Will be starting my last tin of Steam Cream tomorrow, will have to buy more body lotion at the weekend. May treat myself and try a Lush one.

Is it just me or does anyone else feel like they keep using up products that need replacing, rather than items you have a massive stash of?

Looks like most people are voting for the real techniques brush, so will probably buy that one. Its also quite a bit cheaper than the no.7 one.
