Kat Von D Lock-It Color Correcting Eyeshadow Primer & Everlasting Liquid Lipstick in Lovesick

-
Kat Von D Beauty will be available in the UK for the first time at Debenhams on 13th September 2016, so I thought it would be a great time to review the Kat Von D products that I already own.
Kat Von D Lock-It Color Correcting Eyeshadow Primer
One of the products that I purchased on my last visit to America was the Kat Von D Lock-It Color Correcting Eyeshadow Primer in Medium.  It looks like a concealer pen, but it's not as creamy as a concealer.  It’s easy to apply to the eyelids and then pat shadow onto it and it definitely increases the staying power of my eyeshadow and prevents it from creasing.  I have oily eyelids, which added to hooded eyelids, means that if I apply eyeshadow without a primer, it’s guaranteed to make me look like I have panda eyes in a very short period of time and cream eyeshadow inevitably ends up creasing pretty quickly.  The Kat Von D Lock-It Color Correcting Eyeshadow Primer holds the eyeshadow in place, although I haven't tested out it's promise of 24-hour waterproof wear, as lets face it who wants to wear eyeshadow for 24 hours.

I picked the medium shade which is probably a little dark for me, but I have no need of its ability to correct darkness and discolouration on my eyelids.  The eyeshadow covers up the primer, so it doesn’t really matter if you go for the medium or light as far as I am concerned.

The 2nd Kat Von D product that I bought was the Everlasting Liquid Lipstick in Lovesick.  This matte liquid lipstick is the perfect dusky pink colour and even though it's a matte liquid lipstick I found it easy to apply, it doesn't instantly suck all the moisture out of my lips and leave them looking like a wrinkled prune (believe me, some matte liquid lipsticks do have this effect on my lips).  The lipstick stays on my lips for a decent length of time, although it does disappear after I have eaten. Overall, I love the consistency and application and it's a great colour.

Primark Vitamin Enriched Moisturising Primer Review - Bobbi Brown Dupe

**Reposted as the Primark Vitamin Enriched Moisturising Primer is  currently reduced to £2.50 from £4.50. I picked up the Primark Vitamin Enriched Moisturising Primer because it looked like it was a dupe for the Bobbi Brown Vitamin Enriched Face Base. The Primark version costs £4.50 for 45ml and the Bobbi Brown Face Base costs £48.50 for 50ml, so there is quite a price difference.   I had always wanted to try out the Bobbi Brown product, so when I received a mini version in a gift with purchase goody bag I was really excited to try it out, but I have to say I was somewhat underwhelmed.  I have quite dry skin and the face base did not have as much slip as I was expecting, so it didn't feel smooth when I applied my foundation. For the price I was expecting to love it way more than I did. It does have a lovely lemon smell which I really enjoy, where as the Primark version doesn't really have a fragrance.  Overall, I actually preferred the Primark version as it is thicker and it ma

I have wanted to get an LED Mask for ages but with prices for some of them at over £400 I just haven't been able to pull the trigger and buy one yet. So when I saw the LED Light Mask in Primark for £15 I just had to try it out.  The Primark version targets 3 different skin concerns with 3 different types of light sources. Red Light - Use for Anti-Aging benefits by helping to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles Blue Light - Helps to remove acne causing bacteria and reduce skin  inflammation Yellow Light - Helps to improve rough skin, reduces appearance of wrinkles and skin redness To use you cleanse your face and apply soothing and hydrating products.  You can use with face cream, eye cream, facial mask, eye mask, essence, toner etc.  Press the button for 2 seconds to turn on and press again until the LED light that you want to use appears.  You then use it for 10-20 minutes.  It does advise that in case of sensitivity to use with your eyes closed.  After use switch

Aldi Lacura Vitabase Moisturising Primer Review - Bobbi Brown Dupe

-

I managed to get my hands on the newly released Lacura Vitabase Moisturising Primer from Aldi which is supposed to be a dupe of the Bobbi Brown Vitamin Enriched Face Base. It costs £5.99 for 50ml whereas the Bobbi Brown product costs £48.50 for 50ml. That's a big difference especially at times like these when every penny counts. The big question - is it any good? I actually really enjoyed using this primer. I have dry skin and this thick creamy primer really suited my skin. It contains vitamin c, vitamin b, vitamin e, shea butter, sodium hyaluronate & geranium oil and I found it very hydrating on my skin and it provided a great base for my makeup. My makeup stayed on all day and didn't go patchy or dry. It also has a fresh grapefruit and geranium scent which is really refreshing, but don't worry its not an overpowering smell. If you have dry skin I really recommend this product. It looks like its only available in store, so be quick as I'm not sure how long it will
