DIORSKIN FOREVER REVIEW

All I have ever heard about Christian Dior products is how amazing they are, how long they last, and the quality that you are investing in. As everyone knows, they are definitely on the luxury side of beauty, but i think they are 100% worth it. I wanted to try a primer and a foundation as my first Dior products, firstly because I needed a new foundation, and secondly because I was dying to try Dior’s new collection. So I was really excited when I walked into Sephora, to see the Dior Forever Foundation and Concealer. I decided to pick up the lightest shade of the foundation, just to stay on the safe side, and thank goodness I did, as I find that it’s on the limit of being too dark for me. As that day I was wearing no makeup, I went home and tried out my new products straight away. The primer is light on the skin and is very hydrating. My makeup lasted perfectly till the end of the day, so I was very impressed. The foundation was creamy and easy to blend. It has amazing coverage, but it can also be built up to be super high coverage, without looking fake and caky at all. This might sound silly, but it absorbs concealer extremely well, and the Maybelline Anti-Age concealer is a perfect ‘match’ for it. I am very impressed and happy with these two products, and I highly recommend them. I was so pleased that i went to pick up some more Dior products to try them out, so make sure to look out for some blog posts soon.

 Have you ever tried any Dior products?

MAKEUP FOREVER HD FOUNDATION PRO REVIEW

Lately I have been looking for a new foundation, and I really wanted to try out a Make Up Forever one. So, when I found out that a new product had just been launched, and the reviews were really good, I decided to go for it, and I bought it the next day. As the name implies, it is very high definition, meaning it looks amazing close up and from far away. The colour blends in perfectly to my skin, and the finish is a lively matte. I used a brush to blend it, but I also found that using a beauty blender really helped, as it’s quite a liquid foundation. It gives really good coverage, that can obviously be built up if more is needed. I normally go for quite a light coat, as I’m using it for everyday. I’m not quite sure what my shade is, as I don’t seem to be able to find the box, but they have a variety of about 40 shades. It’s not the cheapest of foundations, but you can be sure it is worth every single penny! 

What’s your favourite foundation?

DOUBLE UP-ESTEE LAUDER DOUBLE WEAR

When I find new foundation-concealer duos, I always get very excited, as I think that makeup that is put together in a set is obviously a perfect match. So when I discovered the Estee Lauder Double Wear Stay in Place duo, I got very very happy. As soon as I had a chance I went to Sephora and bought them. 

As soon as I tried the foundation my first reaction was “Wow this is very high coverage!” and it’s true: this is a very high coverage foundation, that is perfect if you’re having a bad skin day, or you just feel really yucky and want something to cover you up nicely. The only negative comment I have about this foundation is that it doesn’t have a pump, so too much comes out each time you put it on. But other than that, it’s really one of the best foundations I own. 

 Now let’s talk about the concealer. I am completely and utterly in love with this product. It’s perfect for every day, and not only it works beautifully as a concealer, but also as a highlighter. I use it as both almost every day, and the result is a light and alive look even when it’s 6.30 and I feel dead. 

If you’ve never tried eny of these products I really think you should venture out to buy them, really. Or you can just buy them here: Foundation, Concealer.
