Weekly makeup additions #7

Another week brings another set of weekly additions and this week I've pulled together some golden oldies with a new purchase, which I'm hoping will wow to the high hills with Mary and her little lambs!

L'Oreal Skin Perfection Magic Touch Instant Blur

+L'Oreal Paris UK & Ireland always try and blow all other drugstore brands out of the water with their skincare, but has their Skin Perfection Magic Touch Instant Blur, taken from their Skin Perfection line been one of the latest revelations?

Whilst L'Oreal basically advertise this product as being one which banishes unwanted pores, shine and 'irregularities' by 'blurring' them out, insert Blurred Lines by Robin Thicke.  Could this also be a good dupe for Benefit Porefessional (£24.50)?

Get illuminated - L'Oreal Lumi Magique Base, Pure Light Primer

If I'm completely honest, it was 3 for 2 in Boots and I was running out of time to look for a primer to fit the bill for Affordable April, so reached for the +L'Oreal Paris UK & Ireland Lumi Magique and finally headed to the till.  Not the proper way to do this I know but time was against me and the hairdressers was calling!

What pulled me to this primer in particular at a first glance, simple, the bottle.  Being a pearlescent white I was under the impression that it would act as an illuminator, giving me that dewy complexion, but is that exactly what happened?

Laura Mercier : Foundation Primer \ Review

A primer is something I've never really used in the world of makeup, that is until now.  After carrying out a bit of research I concluded that Laura Mercier's, Foundation Primer would be the one to put on trial.

Providing a smooth, non-greasy base for your makeup, promoting that extra longiviety, this certainly lives up to the internet rumours!
