Real Techniques Brush Cleansing Palette

Such a simple thing, right? And yet, it makes a world of difference to brush washing. When I’m doing a lot of swatches, I invariably use a lot of brushes, and kind of groan when I realise that the situation needs taking in hand if I’m to swatch anything else in the week. The Real Techniques Brush Cleansing Palette slips on to your hand and you can work your brushes against the nubs to get them really clean.

You get a free trial of the Real Techniques Brush Cleansing Gel, but for preference I use a solid brush cleansing bar. If you’re using the gel, you’d add a bit to the bottom of the palette, dampen your brush and then work it around a bit to loosen up all the old make up. If you use a solid bar, then after dampening, sweep it around the bar and then work it.

It’s a very simple concept that has made brush washing much easier, and it’s £12.99. I know that some readers have already spotted this on shelf in branches of Superdrug but it hasn’t quite made it on line yet apart from the US based RealTechniques site. You can easily order the Real Techniques Brush Cleansing Palette from HERE and postage is reasonable.

    I love this, and like you say so simple yet…so genius, I never feel just squishing the brush bristles with my fingers gets my brushes really clean! I expect to see quite a few copy cats ahem…variants of this appear pretty quickly too.

  2. I have been wanting something like this for ages but didn’t want to spend a fortune, this looks perfect!

    You can also get gloves with similar nubbly bits, some aimed at washing brushes, some aimed at cellulite but that will do the same job! I don’t know how they compare in price/performace but it’s another option to avoid a wrinkly soap-soaked hand 🙂

    I recently got the opportunity to use this handy tool whilst attending the Pixiwoo makeup course. Delighted to see it’s now available to purchase.

    Im so excited for this! I bought the Sigma mat thinking it would change my life but it has suckers on the bottom which stick very well to the sink but the inevitable dips mean water collects so you are constantly soaking yourself trying to prise it off. A hand held solution is much better 🙂

  7. Just ordered it from the US site. It was £11.79 incl. p&p!!

  9. brush cleaning can be such a bore sometimes! I think I would like this and it looks very similar to the Sigma one but for a fraction of the price!

  10. I’ve heard that it’s coming soon. Can’t wait to try it. It’s such a job sometimes to clean brushes properly, especially from some long lasting foundations.

  11. I love that it has a handle for you to hold on to it! I use a little face scrubber from Soap & GLory but this looks great 🙂

  12. Even though I only use a lip brush, and a powder brush, I do need this in my life! 😛

    Hi Jane! I love the look of this, but couldn’t help but notice the real techniques website says it’s 55% more effective to use their cleansing palette with brush cleanser vs. cleansing with water alone! I never wash my brushes using just water- do you think the palette cleans your brushes better than with your normal brush cleanser? Or is it simply a product that takes some of the dreariness out of washing brushes? Thank you x

      I think it moves the pigments stuck at the bottom of the brush better than normal washing can – but a claim of 55% better than water is nonsense.. I have never cleaned my brushes with just water either – it wouldn’t cut through the oil of foundation for a start. I think it’s a nicer way to clean because of the hand held aspect.. just more convenient I guess.

    I need this in my life asap! I am terrible at cleaning my brushes! It’s one of my New Year Resolutions!

  15. I was excited for this product but I have been left really quite disappointed by the price tag 🙁 I don’t get how they can charge more for a piece of plastic than they can for some of their brushes. I’ll stick with my brush egg for now.
