Max Factor All Day Primer

Yaz June 18, 2014     5 Comments     Beauty, Makeup

Primer is something I try to remember to include in my makeup routine but usually forget, oooops, or am just not bothered being honest lol. I’ve bought them, loved them and then forget about them. I really do love primers as I always notice how much easier my make up glides on and it definitely helps it to stay in place all day especially under BB/CC creams which I’m slowly loving more and more!
Max Factor All Day Primer Review

So Max Factor is the latest one I’ve been using and loving! I’ve been very good at remembering to use this actually. I think because it’s the first one that I’ve had that has an SPF in it, SPF 20. Some of my foundations don’t always have an SPF so this is a good way to include it if I’m in a hurry and don’t have as much time to wait for my usual face SPF to soak in. It has also made me use some of my more of my creamey BB and CC creams that were just not good with my oily skin.

Max Factor makeup artist Mel Arter says ‘All Day Primer is a skin preparation essential which creates a matte base with an all day hold’

I definitely find it soaks up excess sebum and oil straight away and throughout the day makes my skin feel less oily so my makeup doesn’t feel like its sliding off after a few hours, esp around the t-zone area it works brill. This really helps create a matte and smooth base for even foundation coverage.

It feels lovely and silky when applied to the skin. It soaks in fast too so there’s no need to wait around ages before applying your foundation. 1-2 mins tops.

This costs a very reasonable €13.99, worth every penny to make your foundation last longer and look better throughout the day. I love this primer and think it is a must have especially with summer coming in. I will say though taht I think it’s best suited for oily skin tones,  I can see it being drying and possibly flaky on all ready dry skin.

So, do you always use a primer before applying foundation? Or what is your favourite one at the moment? Yaz x

Instagram post 2191762419487808903_229265379 Absolute imposter syndrome being at the @primark Christmas event this evening, not gonna lie 🙈, coz I know I’m a small fish with a small following (but may I say very awesome supportive followers and not “hate following”!!! 🙌🏽💕) compared to the big bloggers at these events and also I’m not very naturally glam like the big fashion bloggers....nor am I really a fashion blogger 🙈😂 I’m a just a ma who likes to shop in Penneys like the rest of us😄 And look I do know it’s not all about followers, it’s about engagement and real followers who trust you. I’ve been blogging 9 years now and have people following me that whole time since 2010 which is amazing! Ok off on a tangent now! Goodnight! 🌑 . .

And yes, I’m covering my butt cheek practically hanging out here with a strategically placed hashtag ok?! 🤣 📸 @thebargainbuyer

Instagram post 2189567205180430490_229265379 Found this swivel fridge container yoke (honestly dunno what it’s called but that sounds accurate enough right?!) in @tkmaxxie the other day for €9.99.
.

Isn’t it deadly? I was all excited filling it up and swivelling it today in the kitchen going “wheeeee” so the kids and himself came in to see what I was ooooh and aahhing about. They looked at me like I had 10 heads and said I was a weirdo being so excited about it 🤷🏽‍♀️😂 genuinely think its so handy though, love it! .. Edit: someone on my fb page told me it actually called a “lazy susan” 🙌🏽😂

Picked up this hand and lip care set yesterday at @lloydspharmirl for €12! 
If you have very dry skin the CICAPLAST range by La Roch Posay is so good. My hands and lips get extra dry in winter but this stuff is amazing for healing cracked skin and is so soothing! Deffo pick this up, would even be a lovely stocking filler!
