The new RT are still expensive for synthetic. At that price point I would expect some kind of natural hair. I know they are aimed at pros though. I just couldn't see myself choosing the expensive RT over my Zoeva's though. I don't even use my normal RT brushes anymore.

I love my Zoeva brushes! I would probably buy the RT contour brush because it's very pretty but at the price of two brushes I can get the new rose gold set from zoeva.

I just purchased the two rose golden Zoeva sets along with the 109 and 129 and I have to say i'm a little disappointed! I think after the all rave reviews from everyone and their mother I might have been expecting too much but the rose gold ones feel a little stiff or plastic-y or something to me. The single ones i purchased feel much better and softer. I think the ones with the all white hair (Luxe line?) are better than the others from my initial impressions.

I'm still on the fence about the RT ones but I can't afford any new purchases until the end of the month anyway so plenty of time to decide :)

Oh, I'm sorry to hear you don't like them. I use mine all the time but I still haven't purchased the eye set because I have half of the brushes. I think that the brush handles look better than the ones of the rose gold Sigma brushes but the bristles are not that soft. I haven't used anything from the luxe line.


I just bought the Guerlain meteorites perles base from feelunique for 21 pounds, there are a few Guerlain products at 50% off, if anyone is interested.

Hey ladies, I'm off to Paris in three weeks and was wondering if any of you swear by any French skincare or makeup? I know you can get a lot of pharmacie stuff online here now but I've never tried much myself. Or if theyres anyway specific you think would be nice to go, like I want to give the Chanel on rue cambon and guerlian a looksie. I know they have sephoras but does France have like a super drug or boots equivalent? As that'd be cheaper and more fun discovering new things haha :)

Personally I love La Roche Posay Serozinc. Escentual have just started selling it in the UK (or are just about to) but it's something I've stocked up on on previous trips to France. Never used a spray toner before I tried it, wouldn't be without one now. Lasts for ages too.

Ah good good, that was one of the things I had my eye on! I've tried the efflacar range a few years back but it just burnt my skin it was so harsh, but I think the simple three ingredients in the serozinc should be fine, especially as my skin seems to mattify well with zinc :) I know you can get most of it over here now but it's just not the same as the shopping experience is it! :p

Debenhams now has the Guerlain spring collection up and it's 1000 bonus points for orders over £35. I've just ordered one of the pressed Meteorites powders. Also ordered the pearls and one of the other pressed Meteorites from HoF as I had £30 vouchers, thank you very much! :)

Since I'm a collector as well as a user, I'm buying all 3 compacts, but i think the medium one will be the most suitable for me, or maybe even the lightest one. I don't know what I am according to Mac, but I wear Guerlain 02 foundation in the winter and 03 in the summer if that's any help.
