Tried & Tested: Episode 1
Welcome to the Top-5 series!
So I will be taking you through five of my favourite
products, ranging from primers, foundations, ‘lippies’, powders and mascaras [the
list goes on].
I will add a link at the bottom of each product and places
you can buy yours if you are interested.
You can also request what Top-5 products you would want me
to share, I am ‘down’ with that!👍
‘Okey-dokey’, today it is all about my Top-5 Face-Primers.
I have written an article on primers before, the link below.👇
From that post, you would realise the ‘struggle’ for a good
primer is super real, especially when
it comes to us oily, large pore’ gals’; the struggle
is real ‘man’!
Alright, I have got quite a few primers I like, but these are my top 5!
Make-Up For-ever Step
1 Mattifying Primer:
This primer has been amazing on my skin😊. Although I must
confess it does not keep me ‘matte’ all day. At the end of a day of its use, I
would be slightly ‘dewy’ [which I honestly do not mind]. These days I have been
really liking the ‘dewy’ look. :)
I like the fact I do not get a white-cast or ‘chalky feel’,
and my foundation applies seamlessly [and a plus, no break-outs].
Would I recommend? Yes, I will.
Sacha Mattifier Face
Primer:
I saw Omabelle on YouTube use this product a lot, and she
has got oily and acne-prone skin; this made me want to try this product. It
reminds me of Becca Ever Matte Poreless Primer except this blends better. I
apply this only on my ‘T-zone’ [nose, cheeks and fore-head…]. It has a sort of satin
texture and it dries-down instantly; plus, a little goes a long way.
If you have got oily-skin like’ moi’, then this is ‘B.A.E.’
Recommend? Yes! Repurchase? For sheeze!
Mac Prep + Prime Skin Base Visage:
This is a good product_ it makes my skin look silky, soft
and smooth. This is my fourth bottle, to tell you how ‘gooooood’ this is. It
makes my makeup go-on flawlessly, and it makes it last longer. It has got a bit
of shimmer in it but, when you apply it, it is not obvious at all. Works well
for oily and ‘combination’ skin
Recommend? Yep!
No. 7 Airbrush Away
Primer:
After my favourite brand of primer [of-all-time]_ No. 7
Beautifully Matte, was discontinued L,
I was on a hunt for a new primer to replace this, and this led to trying-out a
few other primers from ‘No. 7’. Honestly, I am pleased I did. This product is very
‘light-weight’_ once I apply it, my skin instantly feels smooth and my make-up
applies pertly; my pores and fine-lines instantly disappear! I am really impressed
with this primer.
Definitely repurchasing, and I do highly recommend.
Benefit PoreFessional
Pro Balm:
I had seen a lot of reviews on this primer; decided to test-it-out
and, oh my! My pores said their ‘last-words and skedaddled’ Lol.
I like the tinted look, and the fact that it hides my pores quite
well. It makes my make-up glide-on easily... It really is a good primer.
So there we go, my Top-5 Face Primers!
Sometimes, when applying my primer I make a concoction, I
can come-up using 3 or 4 primers [they all have their different purposes]: there
is the mattifying one; the one to reduce pores and lines; the one to help the
foundation glide-on smoothly, and so on.
Which are your favourite primers? And what Top-5 beauty
products would you want me to take-on next?
Thanks for stopping by!🙌
