Since last months version of this feature went down really well I thought why not try it again this month! So if you're on a budget, these are the five products that are worth the splurge this month.
First up, the priciest of the bunch, I've been testing out the Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua Foundation since February and I'm obsessed with it. As far as lightweight, dewy, medium coverage foundations go, this is the cream of the crop. I honestly haven't tried a better foundation than this and if you want to splurge, this is the one to go for.
I fell in love with the L'Oreal Lumi Magique Pure Light Primer this month. This applied to the skin pre-foundation just adds a gorgeous glow to the skin, that makes you look healthier than you actually are! This is a real multipurpose one too, I've used it as a primer, a highlighter, and mixed with concealer to brighten up the undereyes. Three in one? Definitely makes it worth picking up.
A couple of weeks ago I repurchased the Smashbox Photo Finish Lid Primer and I can't remember why I didn't do it earlier. I was given one of these at the Smashbox UK launch nearly two years ago and it's honestly the best eyeshadow primer I've ever used. It really creates a velvet texture to the lid that eyeshadow just clings to, and it lasts so well.
Another L'Oreal product but the brand has really impressed me recently. The L'Oreal Collection Privee Cheryl's Nude Lipstick is a gorgeous nude that just really suits my skin tone, and goes with everything so well. The quality of L'Oreal lipsticks has really impressed me, they aren't the cheapest in the drugstore, but they're definitely some of the best!
And lastly a nail polish that I'm obsessed with, the Maybelline Super Stay Gel Polish in Berry Stain. A gorgeous bright purple shade that really just sums up my mood right now, is that a strange way to describe a nail polish? Anyway, it's got an amazing formula, and comes in under £5, definitely one to pick up on a lunchbreak!
What's on your wishlist for the month?

ReplyDeleteI've been wanting to try that primer for a while now, I love the concealer in that range so I don't really know why I haven't tried it yet. I'll definitely be picking it up next time.Tiny Alis
