Laura Mercier Silk Creme Foundation Review!!!

Hey Beauties,


At the start of the year I had been hearing many great things about the LM Foundations and even there Tinted Moisturisers. So I held out and waited till I was in America. So I picked up the Primer and Silk Creme Foundation. I never got the Tinted Moisturiser only because I grabbed the Benefit One (Wish I didn't)


The Silk Creme Foundation has become my favourite Foundation I have ever used. They Hype and expectations lived up to what i had read and saw on blogs and youtube. 


PROS

  • Medium-Full converge. The Foundation is very build able if your looking for a full coverage and blends extremely well.
  • Last all day long with a primer.
  • Only need a small amount of product. A little goes a long way. 
  • Comes in a 35ml Tube. I had a look at all my Foundations and they are all 30ml so 5ml extra.
  • Great for photography as it does not contain SPF. Any SPF in foundation will make you look white like a ghost in any photo even with medium-full coverage and bronzer.
CONS
To tell you the truth I can't think of any but...........
  • Price here is Australia :( You'r looking at RRP $82.00


With out Flash.

With Flash

  • Please excuse the brows. They need to be done ASAP. lol

Laura Mercier Foundation Primer.

Hello Beauties,


My good friend Jo http://little-jo-its-all-about-me.blogspot.com sent me a mini size Laura Mercier primer. I fell in love. A few months back Strawberrynet had a unboxed sale on the primer for $11 at the time I did not have much money. So wish I picked up a million (over exaggeration)


I have tried many primers but I always keep coming back to my Laura Mercier Primer. With other primer I find this one to make my skin much smoother. I also find my foundation last all day until I have to take it off at night.

The only downside to this product is the price tag. A full size 50ml will cost $47. If you’re able to pick it up cheaper form any other websites or America.

Laura Mercier primers come in Oil free, Hydrating, Mineral and Mineral primer powder. My next primer ill pick up is the Hydrating Primer.

My rating:

4 out of 5




What is a primer?

Ill break it down so I don’t ramble on and on lol.
A primer is used to prep the skin before you apply foundation to smoothes and even outs your skins surface. Also makes the foundation last longer.
