Beauty Favourite - July!!
Hey everyone!!
Hope you're all well!!
Are we all enjoying the sunshine??
I know I am - inside my house
hibernating...
The warm weather and I are not
exactly simpatico!
I did pop out yesterday to have an Ikea breakfast/food shopping!!
I boiled outside and froze in the
freezer sections - doesn't make sense!
Anyway...
I'm here today to introduce a new
monthly post to my (almost) two year old blog.
Now this new post is going to be
about beauty!
I know what you're thinking - beauty
and me don't go! Well you would be right; but I'm trying to make the effort.
I've always been intrigued by beauty, but I never made the effort to actually
explore this unknown world - until now! Thanks to the world of YouTube, my eyes have been opened to a whole
new world that I never knew existed. Due to this new discovery; I have become
more aware of beauty products and what I should/should not use. My beauty
regime is a lot more regimented and I don't use products that I know don't do
me any good. So I thought that I might share my experience with you guys and
see if it helps you out. This month's product is a fairly new one to me, but I
don't know what I would do without it.
I have just recently changed to a
different and lighter foundation, now because of this the redness/bumps (I
don't know what they are) on my skin are more noticeable. Even with a thick
layer of foundation you can see them peeking through, so I decided to look in
to getting a primer. The last primer I used separated my foundation and gave me
a patchy look, so I wasn't thrilled by the idea of looking for a new one. While
in Bluewater the other week Charlie and I were in House of Fraser, as she needed to
update her make up routine (new hair) so I decided to walk around. I was just
wandering around having a look, I did ask one counter but with the £36 price
tag I thought sod off! Eventually I was on my way back to see Charlie and I
walked past BareMinerals. They had
all their products on a little table and I caught sight of their primers. I was
just having a look through, when one of the BareMinerals adviser's came up to me.
I explained my situation that I'm looking for a primer, my skin is quite bad
(again I don't know why - I blame Mervyn) and I don't want one that separates
my foundation. The lady was so nice and she took me through the various primers
and tested them on my hand. I think the neutralizing
one was the third primer she showed me. As soon as she tested it on my hand I
knew I wanted it, the only problem is the price - I honestly thought it would
be expensive. £21! Bargain!! I immediately purchased it and headed back to
Charlie. I started using it the following day and I'm so happy I picked it up.
Because of the yellow tone in the product, it cancels out the redness and
leaves an even skin tone for my foundation. This is definitely a product I will
be repurchasing and I recommend it to anyone who is looking for a quality
primer at an affordable price.
It proves that when you're not looking
for it, you'll find it!!
