April Favourites 2016 + Memorable Moments


Hey ya'll! This is going to be a quick post where I will be sharing my April favourites with my lovely readers. 
April has been a great month which I spent most of my time on my blog, hanging out with my close friends and looking for a job.
So before I share these moments with you, I shall first talk about the makeup and skincare must haves for this month!

Here is a flat lay of all the products I have been loving!


Click on the picture or item to read my in depth review on it!

Nyx Dark Circle Concealer Corrector
"My first orange corrector concealer and I am absolutely in love with how it hides my dark under eye better than a normal concealer."

"A BB cream that provides high coverage and gives a dewy finish! It retains your natural looking skin while covering imperfections."


"This is magic in a bottle. It moisturizes the face so well and minimizes oil production through the day. I love to layer it under my makeup to give my skin a slightly dewy finish."

Benefit Porefessional Primer
"This primer hides my pores well, blurs out imperfections and allow makeup to go on smoother. However it is important that your face is well hydrated prior to using this product."

"An affordable everyday highlight which is able to give a subtle glow to the cheeks or be built up to achieve an intense glam look."

"A great eye shadow blending brush, but definitely on the pricey end. I recommend this if you have cash to spare, or else there are many affordable dupes out there in the market." 

Real Technique Setting Brush
"My current favourite brush for highlight! It is small and tapered making it easy to define a specific area to highlight. Hence, allowing that shine to pop even more!"

"A must have for all warm tone lovers out there! This is a fabulous palette which includes all your favourite warm neutrals, warm browns, oranges, reds and more warm delights. This 35 colour palette allows an endless creation of looks, from everyday makeup to full smoked out glam."


So into some of the pictures I took this April.
This month I tried to include more exercising into my lifestyle, so I visited a few nature reserves and parks.

Do ya'll enjoy this blogging style? 
It has been around 1 month since I started blogging and I really enjoy blogging. But for the Month of May, I see myself bringing better quality posts for my readers.
I will also be taking an examination in May so I will be working hard on that as well! Hwaiting! 
I hope you all had a great April and have a great May ahead!

Benefit Porefessional Primer Review



Hey ya'll! Today's review will be on the Benefit Porefessional Primer. This is one of the first mattifiying/ pore filling primer which was out there in the market. There were many who loved it and many who hated it. So today will be my take on this old school primer.

Selling in Sephora at $54, 22ml
$91, 44ml





It has a beige tint and a paste like consistency.


-Minimize the appearance of pores and fine lines effectively
-Silky light weight formula
-Comfortable on Skin
-Helps makeup stay put
-Reduce shine
-Invisible on all skin tones
-Oil free texture
-Contains vitamin E to protect skin from free radicals



To be used under or over makeup after moisturizing.
-Under Makeup: Pat on problem areas (pores, fine lines) and blend with finger tips.
-Over Makeup: Pat lightly over makeup and blend
-For touch up: If pores reappears through the day, pat delicately over makeup and blend


Here is how it looks before and after application.






So I will be putting it through a test to see which claims it manages to meet!

As you can see, upon initial application, the primer has successfully blurred out he huge pores on my face and the overall face looks smooth and matte.






9 hours passed and I have to say I am actually very satisfied with the state of my makeup. 
My pores are still in check and although I may e sinner then when I first started, the oil is still at a controlled level which has not broken down my foundation. Impressed.

This is indeed a hyped up primer for a really good reason. I love the overall texture and consistency of this primer. A little bit will go a very long way so do not squeeze out too much product. I just have to ensure that my face is well moisturized before using this as primer may clump if skin is too dry. 
I think that it extends the wear of my makeup slightly and hold my makeup in place well (pore areas where it is applied).



Pros
-Light and smooth consistency
-Blurs out pores successfully 
-A little bit goes a long way (do not over load)
-Slightly extends wear of makeup
-Reduce shine


Cons
-May clump easily if does not match with skincare applied.
-Expensive



All Skin Types: -Recommended-
*It is important that your face is well moisturized before usage. And use very little at a time as using too much will cause product to clump and roll up.
Also only apply to areas where you have larger pores and not entire face.



Would I Repurchase
Already got myself a back up!

Rate
4/5

"A great pore blurring primer that hold up to its holy grail status."
