بريمر إنفيلبلي فاونديشن (glowizard 05)

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love to use primers, those clever products play extremely important part in my daily make-up routine. If I do not have time to use foundation I just put on some Anti Fatigue Infallible Primer. It contains apricot pigments to hide dullness and fatigue. The colour of my face livens up and I look like somebody, who got 9 hours good night’s sleep. Anti Fatigue Infallible Primer has a light colour so I do not need to use any extra foundation, but of course, I can, if I want.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I loved this primer. It doesn’t have a typical silicone texture and it’s more like a fine, light cream. This means that it can be worn mixed with foundation and on top of foundation. It’s incredibly luminising, almost like a highlighter. The only con is that it’s a small tube and you must be careful not to press the pump the whole way down otherwise a lot of product comes out.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Mattify is L’Oreal’s best Infallible Primer to wear underneath my foundation. It looks like a light cream and I have to use it in very thin layer with my fingertips. It absorbs excess oil and hides enlarged pores. Brilliant product. With Mattifying Infallible Primer my foundation holds longer and do not become shiny.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Although I have really oily skin I wanted to try this primer as I have enjoyed using similar products from high end brands and wanted to see how it compared. Packaging: Compact 20ml pump in a statement holographic silver tube which is small enough to carry on the go. Texture: Runny product easy to blend over face with fingers, the product is less viscous than similar products so be careful to pump sparingly. The product isn’t as greasy as I expected and leaves only a very slight film making foundation apply smoothly on top but it can make skin appear more oily so be sure to lower skin if you have oily skin. Fragrance: Chemical smell not overly pleasant. Moisture benefits: Skin feels softer but not overly moisturising. The colour of this primer is a cool silvery pink and on first application I used too much and resembled an alien - the colour is far too articifial to use alone and I had hoped it was a more natural luminizing primer but the packaging should have given me a clue. This can be used over foundation as a highlighter and it works well for this purpose for glam night out makeup. It also looks nice on the lips (noticed when applying to whole face accidentally). It provides a nice glow under my foundation that is very subtle and looked good as the light hit my cheekbones. It wasn’t as dramatic as first expected when I applied it to the skin as I wear medium to full coverage and works well with the infallible sticks. Makeup routine was cut drastically using these products.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So this arrived just before I left for a holiday to Mexico, thought I’d take it along and try it out in the evenings. Now I don’t wear foundation at all on holiday as my skin goes brown quickly but I decided to try the primer on its own and I was very impressed with the glow it gave my skin, not over the top glittery glow but a subtle healthy sheen! Great primer that melted very quickly into my skin, no sticky residue and no sickly smell. I tried this under my usual foundation when I got home and it held the makeup very well all night, no patchy skin at all! I have recommended this to my sister as she suffers from dull skin. Lovely range from L’Oreal and I will definitely buy this again.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was really disappointed in this primer, I've been looking for a good quality mattifying primer for some time and I had high hopes for this one. I dispensed two pumps from the bottle and was surprised at how thin it was, like milk! After applying it to my face I couldn't really tell it was there. The texture was maybe a little smoother but it didn't look matte at all. I put foundation over the top and oil absorbing setting powder but after about two hours my face was shiny with oil. I had to liberally apply powder throughout the day. Honestly I think my skin was worse with this, it certainly didn't mattify or have any staying power. Weirdly for a primer it also didn't improve my skin for foundation.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This primer made my skin glow. I wore it under my foundation to a very busy New Year's Eve party. It was very hot which would usually result in my make-up sliding off but the primer held it all night long! Pristine from start to finish with a nice luminescent glow.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Primers do for your skin what lingerie does for your figure - they smooth, flatter, conceal and hold things in place, so that everything you put on top of them looks immediately better. Whether you want to blur wrinkles, mattify, minimise the appearance of pores or even out skin tone, primers do this whilst creating a perfect base for make-up and helping it to stay put for longer. Yes, it might take a minute longer to apply another layer every morning as part of your beauty routine, but it's the difference between your make-up sliding off by noon and it staying put until the end of the day. And wouldn't you consider that a minute well spent? Once you start using it you'll wonder how you ever lived without it.
