Boots Haul and First Impressions of Products

So i took a trip to town the other day and picked up a few things from boots as there was a 3 for 2 offer on. I thought instead of doing the normal haul so actually give you my first impression of all the products i brought.

Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum - I found the colour that suits my skin perfectly which is very hard to find cause i have fair skin so i was very happy about that . This is renown for being a dupe of the Chanel vitalumiere aqua , this is looks very smooth on the skin and gives a beautiful glow without being too cakey.

Bourjois Colour Boost Lipstick in Peach on the beach- I love the colour on my fair skin , goes on so smooth onto my lips and its got a beautiful glossy sheen on my lips. Zoella recommended this lipstick so i had to pick it up in the offer.

Bourjois Bronzing Powder - It renown for its luscious smell of chocolate , i must say that the product is very lovely its easy to use for a beginner you can build the colour up for a contour.

Maybelline Fit Me Powder - My very first impression was how soft to touch and takes away the shine , i had run out of my Maybelline dream matte powder so i thought i should try a different powder. So far i like my fit me powder more as it is more smooth and less cakey.

Maybelline Dream Pure BB Cream (2% Salicylic acid for oily skin) - I picked up this BB cream instead of the normal BB cream because i have been breaking out lately and thought it might treat my spots will giving a bit of coverage. Its a perfect light colour for my skin and gives a very smooth finish.

Maybelline The Eraser Concealer - Its a nice concealer for the under eyes , although it is a anti age concealer i heard it was great for the under eyes , so i have been using it in my daily routine . I am not liking the sponge applicator because i think it is very unhygienic so i completely torn it off.

I hope you liked my post , please comment so i can talk.

First Impression of Maybelline Dream Fresh BB Cream

I got this product a few days a go and I wanted to write my first impression of the product. The product says it has 8 benefits in 1; Creates a natural glow, compliments skin tone, SPF 30, Hydrates all day, Blurs imperfections, oil free, looks visibly smooth and feels fresh. When applying the BB cream it felt very smooth to put on, I would recommend that when applying you use your fingers but the brush would pick up a lot of the product. After applying I did see that the BB cream looked very greasy on my skin, so I used a powder to take down the shine. I think the great thing about this product is that it was the same colour as my skin and complimented it very well, which is pretty hard because I have quite fair skin so I find most foundations and BB creams can be too orange for my skin.

I would say that it makes my skin look smooth and as I have some acne its nice for it to make that look smooth, but however it did not really blur my imperfections so if wearing this in the day I would wear concealer with it. I believe that the product only provides 4 out of the 8 benefits it promises which are that it creates a natural glow, compliments skin tone, SPF 30 and looks visibly smooth.

Overall 

Brand: Maybelline

Price: £7.99

Amount of product: 30ml

Pro's: This product just suit the colour of my skin very well instead of being too orange like other drugstore brands, it just give me a natural glow and smooths out my skin nicely. The product is very cheap considering the amount you get.

Con's: It does not blur imperfections as my acne was still showing and as soon as I put the product on it looked very greasy so you would have to wear a powder with the product. Another con would be that the product doesn't sell a wide range of colours, although my colour suited me, there aren't many darker shades.

Overall rating : 3.5*

I hope you enjoyed my review
