Laura Mercier Foundation Primer Mineral| Review


Hi beautiful, welcome to my page! Today I'm going to review Laura Mercier Foundation Primer which I received from Amabie as my
giveaway prize. This is one of the goodies that makes me feel excited to try, but does it satisfies my expectations as a primer? Let's see.


This primer claims that it creates a smooth, invisible surface for mineral powders. This oil-free, skin- nourishing formula dries soft to the touch while minimizing the appearance of pores. Laura Mercier mineral powder applies evenly and last longer for a naturally flawless look.
Packaging:in a sleek, pearly grey tube packaging
Amount:1.70fl.oz/50ml
Texture: light watery lotion
Color: off-white
Scent: it smells like plastic


I tried this primer twice,first with CC cream and second with Mineral Powder Foundation.It's light, watery texture turns into a powdery finish once it dries. It feels so smooth,light and looks matte which I really love 'coz I have an oily skin. However,it gives a bit of flakey patches on my cheeks and nose when I wear it with my mineral powder foundation and it's more noticeable when I wear it with my CC Cream.My mineral powder foundation never gives me a flakey patches before when I used it with other primer. I will understand if my CC cream will look patchy with this primer, but with my mineral foundation powder?I think its a nay cause this primer should be great with mineral powder as what it claims to be. I personally don't like its scent too, it smell like a plastic doll for me. As for its staying power,it really did a good job as a primer. It's sunny when I used this primer,my whole face got so sweaty and oily but my foundation didn't melt.


Maybe this primer is best to use with Laura Mercier Mineral Foundation,which I haven't tried to do. Also,it contains Retinyl Palmitate an antioxidant which upon reading and researching, is not good on skin when exposed under the sun.

Cosrx Real Fit Vitamin Serums Review

  Hey guys! I'm back with a review about Cosrx Real Fit Vitamin Serum. I received this products from the brand when I applied for the review program. What I have here are the Retinol (.5 Retinyl Palmitate) Serum, Vitamin C (23%) Serum and Vitamin E (20%) Serum. These serums are concentrated that's why its 20ml amount will goes a long way. The Vitamin C serum should be consume 2months after you open it while the Retinol and Vitamin E has 3months shelf life after opening. Thoughts: Retinol Serum Contains .05% Retinyl Palmitate and 72.5% Calendula Officinalis Extract, these are skin soothing,refining brightening and firming ingredients. It has a milky texture that slightly viscous, it absorbs quickly and feels good on skin. It has a faint scent that I think comes from the sunflower seed oil which is also one of its ingredient. It's my first time to try Retinol and I really feel a bit nervous and also excited about it. I use this serum for 2 weeks already at night time, I apply...
