Beauty, Bargains and Beyond

I am a big fan of Primark Beauty as its very reasonably priced and they do have a tendency to bring out products that are similar to more high end brands. I recently picked up the 3 shades of Primark Tinted Lip Oil which were very reasonably priced at £3 each. I got the shades Berry, Berry Brown & Blush. Berry is a lovely pink shade, Berry Brown a gorgeous nude shade and weirdly Blush is a slightly darker pink than Berry which I wasn't expecting, but is very nice none the less.  They each give a sheer wash of colour, whilst hydrating my lips. They are not oily or sticky and feel very comfortable on my lips. L to R: Berry, Berry Brown, Blush, Lip Glaze I think that the packaging and product is very similar to Rare Beauty Tinted Lip Oil which is more costly at £20. I own 2 Rare Beauty lip oils and I think they are very good, but it never hurts to have a more affordable option. The Rare Beauty product is slightly wetter and leaves a stain once it wears off. I also bought a Glossy

I have been going through all my foundations and tinted moisturisers to work out if they still suit me and I have to say that I have found a few that were totally wrong for me, in both colour and for my skin type (Hourglass Immaculate Liquid Powder foundation cost me £55 and even though I was colour matched in store it ended up being way too dark for me and also not really suitable for my dry skin). Buying the wrong foundation can be costly, so I definitely need to be more careful going forward when I purchase this kind of product. One of the products that was suitable for my skin was the Fenty Beauty Eaze Drop Blurring Skin Tint. This product is more like a hydrating tinted moisturiser which gives a blurring effect to the skin. It does state that it is a light to medium coverage, but I didn't try to build it up to medium coverage as I prefer a light coverage that just evens out my skin tone. This product comes in 25 shades and my shade is 5 - Light Medium with Warm Yellow Underton
