Bourjois Healthy Mix

Bourjois Healthy Mix in Light Vanilla £9.99
This foundation is the only product that suits my awkward skin tone! It has a velvet texture, is dewy on the face which makes you look full of life and has a gorgeous fruity scent. It doesn't look cakey on my face at all and blends with ease using my Real Techniques Expert Face Brush. It has medium coverage on me but can be built up to a higher coverage if neccessary. I've been using this with the benefit porefessional and they work together seamlessly! This foundation does cover up my blemishes but doesn't conceal them. I think that if you had flawless skin to begin with, this serum would further enhance that and your skin would look glowy and youthful.

The finish of the foundation is slightly dewy which means you get a healthy glow. If you don't like the dewy look, this can easily be removed by adding a matte powder over the top. Personally, I powder my forehead, chin and nose and leave my cheeks naturally glowy so I don't have to use as much highlighter. All in all- I love this product and I am amazed that I hadn't picked it up yet!

Boots Haul

Bourjois Healthy Mix in Light Vanilla £9.99
Soap and Glory Supercat Eyeliner £6
Revlon Colour Burst Matte Balm in Elusive £7.99
Ordinarily, the combination of these products (all recommended to me by youtubers) would total £23.98, but thankfully Boots had a 3 for 2 sale on, and I had a £5 off voucher! So I only paid £12.98 for these 'more on the expensive side' drugstore products which I feel I will fall in love with!

Bourjois Happy Light Matte Primer

Bourjois Happy Light Matte Primer - £10.99
I've been using this primer for around 3 weeks now and it's the first primer I have ever used. Personally I haven't really realised that this product has made my makeup stay on longer, yet it mattifies my complexion very quickly. I use this product on my nose, chin, forehead and under my eyes as these are the more oilier areas and I want my makeup to stay in place in these areas. I have found that this serum dries very quickly so you have to work efficiently with it. I use around 1 and a half pumps to cover the areas I want to. The consistency of the serum is very smooth and doesn't get stuck in the pump- although, after every week of usage, a clog of product appears in the pump yet this is easily blendable into the original product. I also agree that it minimises pores yet I think that there are better products on the highstreet that are cheaper and worth the money.

I don't love this primer as much as I think I would have. However, I will finish the bottle and it is an addition to my makeup collection which has some benefits to mattifiying my complexion.
