Today I want to review on the Revlon Photoready Perfecting Primer. I have been using this for the past month and thought it was time to share my experiences with this primer.
Firstly, the Primer comes out is a very pale pink, and is kind of the same consistency of a light moisturiser. When applied it makes my face so incredibly soft and silk like. I love they way it glides over my skin. It also reduces the appearance of my pores and makes my skin tone more even. It creates a matte base for your make-up which is great for those who have trouble with a shiny t-zone. Unfortunately, there is a downfall with this primer. It does make dry skin more prominent. I moisturise before I apply anything to my face, but once I have applied this primer the dryness on my nose seems to reappear, which equals flakey foundation, YUK! So if someone has extremely dry skin then I don't think this product would be suitable. I think this product as a stand alone product is great, alone without make-up it does make my skin look so much better. But the purpose I brought it for to be applied before make-up isn't as good as I would like it to be.
Secondly, we must discuss cost! This product RRP is £11.99, which as primers go its not much different to other similar ones on the market. I don't feel that this primer is worth the full £11.99 though, since showing up my dry skin on my nose does not help with applying my foundation!
Overall I think i would give this primer 5/10. It is a lovely consistency but it is so hit and miss with my skin type its really unfortunate that something that could have been great ends up being mediocre.
I hope that this gives you some insight into this primer.
Keep sparkling xoxo

What I Got For Christmas | '13
Hiy everyone! Here's just a few things I got for Christmas this year :) I have also done a youtube video (which is at the bottom of this post) to go with this so check it out! It lists the things that I had and theres a few things in the video that aren't in the pictures!
Firstly, this is some of the make-up and hair products I had. I got two Revlon Photoready Primers, two Revlon Colourstay Foundations Combination/Oily in Ivory, 2 Maybelline The Falsies Volum' Express Mascara, a free Revlon Nail Polish in Stunning and two Bleach London hair dyes in Blullini and Rose (I highly rate these products, 3 weeks on and my hairs still blue!). I will be rating some of these products in an upcoming blog!
This is something I am super excited to share with you. For a couple years I have wanted Viktor & Rolf's Flowerbomb perfume but unfortunately it has always been outside of my price range. Thanks to my Mom and Dad I know own a bottle! It such a gorgeous smell and for anyone who gets the stingy nose thing when smelling perfume I suggest something like this.
As lucky as I have already been with my Flowerbomb perfume, my Mom and Dad surprised me again with this Oral B Professional Care Toothbrush in Precision Clean. It even comes with a handy travel case which is perfect for someone who loves to travel and is constantly to-ing and fro-ing from university and home. I will be reviewing this on my blog to so look out for it if your interested in getting one yourself!
I also got some jewellery this year, as someone who is a fan of understated pieces I LOVE EVERYTHING I GOT! I had some dangly earrings which look really cute with a monochrome casual outfit as they really add a different dimension to an outfit. These were from my Mom and Dad. My best friend in the whole wide world brought me some lovely pieces from Kukee, if you haven't already go check out their shop! I had a moon necklace, wings necklace, pinkie promise necklace (how adorable!), peace ring, planet ring, midi ring and my favourite an anchor ring.
This pinkie promise necklace is so beautiful and original I love it!
This anchor ring is my favourite as when my best friend Dan gave it to me, he told me he brought it as I am his anchor :') How beautiful my Dan is <3
This is one of my favourite necklaces of all time, so you can probably tell I am a massive Harry Potter fan! This 9 and 3/4 necklace was also given to me by Dan (he knows me 100%!) and is so perfect! It is in antique gold and has a mid length chain which makes it great for dressing up a plain T.
This cute Boofle teddy, was given to me by my Mom and Dad. It has a cute little coat on which says very special daughter and the coat can even be taken off! I love things like this, they are very dear to my heart and Booey has came back with me to my flat at university to keep me company :)
So there we go, just a few thing that I have been really privileged to be given :) Look out for some reviews on the products and I hope to see you back very soon!
Keep Sparkling! xoxo
