Seventeen form Boots new Primers

 
Floorless Poreless Primer
 
 
 
 
The first of the Primers I'm going to talk about is the Flawless Poreless Primer which is the round compact in the picture above. This is a solid primer in pan form and it is silicone based. Its clear and is very smoothing when applied to your face.  It did help to conceal my very large pores but didn't banish them completely :-(
I haven't yet found a primer that totally conceals my pores but they are quite large, it did however help alot with my fine lines under my eyes which is fab ...... you don't need alot so I think this would last a long time.
 
Stay Time long wear Primer
 
This primer is quite different to any other primer I have tried before, Its the one in the tube pictured above.  It says on the description that it is like a glue for your make up.......well it is true, When you first apply this primer to your face it feels just like that, In fact it feels really strange on the skin for the first minute or so. Then it just feels nice and smooth and ready for your makeup, I have tested this several times, in hot weather, cold weather and just general day to day wear and its fantastic at doing exactly what it says it does.....keeping that makeup on your face lol I'm very impressed with this primer and will defiantly re purchase once this has run out. VERY IMPRESSED 

Beauty UK Lip crayons


 
These are the new Posh Pouts from Beauty UK, they are very simalar to what most makeup companies are bringing out now ever since Revlon launched their Kissable balm Stains way back last year.  These dont claim to stain the lips which is good as they dont, but they are very nice all the same.  They are very pigmented and very moiturising on the lips but they dont last very long so you do have to keep reapliying I think they are around £3 each which is quite a good price point and they would be great for someone starting out with makeup !! I have had them for quite a while and I do use them often, but they are not what I reach for If I want a long lasting lippy. All in all I think they are fab as a lot of the Beauty UK items do x x x 


BYS long lasting lipstick from Store 21

 
BYS Long lasting lipstick
 
 
I came across these lippys when I was in a Store 21 near Croydon, I knew that the range existed but had never really tried it, when I spotted them near the till area, I immediately thought of Wet and Wild as the packaging is quite similar to that.  I swatched a couple on the back of my hand and was very impressed, the pigmentation is amazing and its very creamy even though they are long lasting lipsticks they didn't feel dry. They were retailing at £1 each which is crazy so I bought every colour they had lol. 
I tried one on my lips as soon as I got home and it went on really nice, after about 5 mins it kind of set on my lips but still didn't feel to dry, It lasted on my lips for about 4 hours, and for a £1 lippy I think that's amazing.. It did become more dry over time but still wasn't uncomfortable on the lips at all. If you have a Store 21 near you that stocks the BYS makeup range defiantly go and check it out as the whole of the range is only £1 per item. I love wearing these lippys and I'm loving the autumnal colours, I hope they bring out some more next spring. I also purchased 3 of the eye shadow quads which I will do a separate blog on x x x
