Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Flawless Filter Review

-
I have to admit that I am not a big fan of highlighters as I think they can look too in your face for my taste, so when I am going for a full on glam look (which isn't often I might add), then I just want a lit from within subtle glow.  I think that I have found the perfect product from Charlotte Tilbury  the Hollywood Flawless Filter which promises a superstar youth glow.  
Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Flawless Filter Review
Charlotte Tilbury is one of my favourite makeup and beauty brands, so I always take advantage of goody bag offers from Cult Beauty to stock up on CTs latest products.  The Hollywood Flawless Filter is £30 for 30ml and comes in 7 shades.  It has a doe-foot applicator which makes it easy to dot the product onto your skin and I find it blends just as well with fingers as with a beauty blender.  I picked shade 3 Light/Medium and although it looks a bit dark and orange in the bottle, it doesn't come out that way and it is the perfect shade for me.
Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Flawless Filter Review
You can apply it all over the face as a flawless filer, or on top of foundation for extra coverage and I would also use it just to highlight cheeks and nose and top of the lip if I just wanted a hint of a subtle sheen to brighten up my complexion. Hopefully you can see from the photo below the glow the product leaves on your skin (bear in mind that the skin on my arm in the photo is paler than the skin on my face, so it's more subtle that it looks in the photo).
Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Flawless Filter Review
I prefer to wear it under my foundation or cc cream as it makes a great primer and instantly diminishes pores.  Once I apply foundation my skin is left with a subtle glow which is perfect.  There's no sparkle or glimmer just a dewiness that makes your skin look the best it can be.  I am totally in love with this product and will be using it a lot during the summer.  If you are looking for a complexion booster then give this product a try.

As always CTs packaging is spot on from the classy glass bottle with the rose gold lid to the beautiful pale pink and gold box  I will hopefully do a full brand review on all the CT products that I own, so look out for that soon.

I buy my CT products from Cult Beauty, in store at Harvey Nichols or on the Charlotte Tilbury website. What Charlotte Tilbury products do you recommend?

Primark Vitamin Enriched Moisturising Primer Review - Bobbi Brown Dupe

-

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 made for a better base for my foundation. It also seemed to be more hydrating. I have definitely reached mor

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
