Maybelline Baby Skin Instant Pore Eraser

Hi! Today I will be reviewing Maybelline Baby Skin Instant Pore Eraser. It's a translucent gel primer that claims to erase pores. You apply this before your foundation or you can wear it alone.

I had high expectation for this. I love Baby Lips, so I was happy that Maybelline was adding a primer to their collection. Not alot of drugstore brands has primers. I tought: a pore eraser? that sounds cool, maybe it'd could replace my Benefit POREfessional primer. Not really...

I didn't feel like it did anything for my pores. It made my face oily. The texture isn't the best, it's way too thin. So if you have oily/combination skin, I would not suggest this... On a positive note, it might help applying/the look of your makeup.

So, I'd suggest that you skip the cute packaging and invest in a high-end primer.

REVIEW | Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion

If you're reading this, it's probably because you're apart of the beauty community... you probably: have a blog, read blogs, watch YouTube videos and have a big collection of makeup! So it's obvious that you already know all about this product, know how great it is and probably own it too! The product that I'm talking about is obviously the Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion which I will be reviewing and rave about it like everybody in the beauty world! Haha!

To start off, what do you guys think of my creative photos? Ahaha, I'm so proud of them-- I adore how it's all light purple. So pretty! Need to start getting more creative with my pictures!

Okay, now on to the review. This product is wonderful. It's one of my must-have. This is my second one. I've had a small one with the classic packaging with original Naked Palette. Which I must admit that the classic packaging looked much cooler, but at the end it'd be harder to take out the product and you'd end losing some. So for this part, this packaging is way better; since you don't end up losing any product. But the application with the classic one was way better since it had a wand.

Without this product, my eyeshadow WILL crease during the day. This primer will make your eyeshadow more pigmented/vibrant and stay on all day without creasing at all. It will smoothly glide on your eyelid. Yes, it can be quite expensive (24$), but you only need a really small quantity so the tube will last a really long time!

Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion in ''Original'':

Urban Decay has four Primer Potion to their collection. I have the original one. As you can see on the picture, it kinda looks nude when you swatch it but, it dries down invisible.

Overall, this is one of my must-have. It's great also if you have an event/prom/wedding/night out to attend. But for me, I use it on a daily basis and I couldn't live without it. Primer is essential for me and it makes all the difference!

Review: Benefit the POREfessional primer

Hi beauties! Sorry for the lack of post lately! I'm at the camping for two weeks and at our campground, for some reason, we can't seem to have the wifi. But sometimes I will go on my cellular data on my iPhone, so in the meantime, you can follow me on twitter: www.twitter.com/sparklethiscity for updates.

I really wanted to do a June favorites but most of my stuff is at the campground and the few hours trip to home was short noticed so I didn't get the change to grab my stuff! But the other day I took pictures of many products that I want to review and Benefit the POREfessional primer is one of them so, let's get started!

I'm sure everyone in the beauty community knows about this primer. Benefit the POREfessional primer is one of the beauty product everyone seems to rave about. This lovely primer claims to  minimizes pores quicky, and it does that! I feel like it actually helped my pores in general also, so I could consider this a skincare product I believe. My skin has been acting better since I've started using this lovely primer.

When I don't use my primer, I notice a huge difference, my face isn't as smooth, poreless, soft as it is when I use this product. My skin looks better in general. As I said, I don't believe this is just a primer, it's also a miracle skincare product.

It has a nice smell, feels good on the skin: it has a silky feel to it. I have acne-prone skin and it doesn't break me out as other primers do. So as you can guess it's not an oily primer but a matte one. Doesn't feel greasy at all nor cakey. Plus if you have oily skin, it will help with that also. Another good thing is that it doesn't take time to dry; you can basically put your foundation on right after. It looks colored but it's transparent on the skin.

As all the other Benefit's product the packaging is super cute! Also, the name is super clever aha! Benefit has the best marketing!! :)

On another note, I feel like it's too expensive for the little amount that you get. I've had it for like 1 or 2 months and I've already used half of it. That's the only complaint I have about this primer.

Other than that, it's a wonderful product and I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a great primer that will minimize pores, make your makeup stay on longer, reduce shine all of that without having a cakey makeup!
