Benefit They're real tinted mascara primer

Hey my loves...
I know it has been a while.. I was thinking about changing it up.. Mixing it a bit. But my love of make up has prevailed again and I am back fully in love with some barely written about items. So I will for sure be updating this all again soon..
But for this post I will be speaking about the new Benefit They're real tinted mascara primer. This little innovative product is just amazing.. Let me just put that out there straight away. At first I had seen it in a magazine whilst flicking through a celebrity filled magazine. So I tried to get more information on it, but there wasn't that much. So I knew in my own crazy head that I had to get it and write a little review.


First of all, the primer is brown. How many mascara primers have we seen that are brown. None. Not that I can think of from the top of my head. How many of us have had those bright white primers, that turn mascara grey and not so black anymore. I know I have. No matter what mascara you use on top of this little beauty there is no fading of colour, because of the already richly pigmented brown colour. It also makes it an ideal from desk to party primer/mascara. As it has enough pigment to give off a lovely day look, but it also doesn't crisp up, so you can later in the day add on some more mascara. 

I have tried it with a few different mascaras that are in my collection and it works a treat with all of them even, the drugstore lower end one. For me personally, I find it works amazingly well with my loreal so couture mascara. It fans out my lashes, gives them volume and defines them, more than usual. Which I have fell in love with recently. I love that it works well with lower end mascaras, to make them as amazing as the they're real mascara. Totally worth the money. 

Benefit have it on sale for £18.50 and it is also £18.50 at Boots, where you can get various deals on it and gain those advantage card points. When I bought mine, if I bought two premium make up items, you were getting £5 back in points. Bargain in my eyes and I also got the Benefit they're real remover to try out. Which I will be sure to do a post on. 

Have you tried this out this little hidden gem? What are all your thoughts on it? Please excuse the scary eyes in the pictures below the first one has just the primer on one eye, then the other 2 are with the Loreal mascara on top. 

Thanks for reading ❤️

Saturday Dinner Date FOTN



Hey Guys and Dolls, 

Hope you are all having a fabulous Valentines Weekend. My lovely other half took me out last night for dinner. 

So this is what I done to my face for going out for the dinner. 

This was the final look, I came up with. 

I used my usual face products of Fashionista Vanishing cream primer, Rimmel match perfection foundation and the Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer. I finished my base with a light dusting of MUA pressed powder. I also used Benefit Hoola Bronzer and the glossybox glossy rosewood blusher. 







 


On my eyes I used Urban Decay primer potion to prime my eyes and the patted on Concretes Smut eye mineral shadow and on the outer corner I used Doe-eyed by Concrete too, Review here. I lined my eyes with Be a Bombshell and Soap and Glory smoulder Kohl, then finished with lashings of Maybelline Smokey eyes mascara. My eyebrows I done with the new PS.Love brow pencil in light, I got this in a recent primark trip.







 
 
I finished the look with one of my favourite lipsticks Urban Decay Catfight. I did mix some of a lighter pink lipstick, to give it more of a romantic colour.

Hope you all like this look.
