So I've decided to do a quick review on the products!
To be honest I didn't know much about this product and I'm not really a primer person.
But after trying this on a few times, i'm kind of liking it!
The texture of it was what caught my eye. Instead of having a silicon texture, this primer was more watery/gel-like.
I read the back of the packaging and it states that it is armed with 'Aloe Vera, Jojoba, Shea, and Vitamin B5', and I'm a sucker for these ingredients.
It also states to be, "Hydrating, Water Based, Weightless, Fragrance Free, Oil Free".
Hydrating? Sure
Water Based? Yep
Weightless? Yep
Fragrance Free? ... Not sure about that. It does have a feint shea/ 'organic' smell.
Oil Free? Cool
As for the staying power, I can never tell.

Zoeva: EN TAUPE eyeshadow palette
First impressions of the product and packaging was good.
The packaging was nice and simple, but unfortunately there's no mirror.The colours inside were a bit surprising. I'm not a big cool-toned person so blues and purples aren't my thing, but I tried it out and I'm happily surprised.
There's a good mixture of mattes, glitters, light and dark colours. So it's definitely a palette that can be used by itself... (except that there's no SUPER dark colour for the outer third or to line the eye).
- made in Italy
- both matte and shimmer shades
- good size
- buildable
- not a lot of fallout
- easy to blend
- "no parabens and no fragrances"
dislikes:
- no mirror

Becca x Jaclyn Hill: Shimmering Skin Perfector - Champagne Pop
I was most excited about this product because I've heard so much about this!
It's true what everyone thinks about this, it's magical!The packaging is lovely, colour is great, and I legitimately wouldn't mind walking around looking like a disco ball with this on my face.

dislikes:
- the box... i think it is designed to look like champagne bubbles, but it just looks like bubbles stuck under contact paper.
