I’ve featured this in a lot of my posts recently but I feel that a full review is necessary because it really is that good and a lot of people tend to ask me which primer they should buy. I’ve never used a primer before which acts as three things in one, and multitasks so well. This primer is the perfect skin care solution for you, I'm a little bit obsessed...
Firstly, the packaging. It’s so simple. I
usually have products which are black, but the white and red works really well
here. I find that ThisWorks is such an exciting and on trend brand, their logo
and even the simplicity of this packaging just make this item look gorgeous in
my bedroom or my make up bag, it looks really high end.
This isn’t just a primer, as it says, it’s
a mask, moisturiser and primer in one.
It’s moisturising properties aren’t a myth,
this really does moisturise. It looks like a moisturiser when you apply it.
It’s quite firm in texture, so it isn’t too oily. I wouldn’t
personally apply a moisturiser when I’ve applied this. Too much of a good thing
kind of counteracts how good it is.
It’s face mask properties are fabulous. I
have noticed such a change in my whole complexion since using this, my face
feels smoother, softer and just generally more radiant. I really notice a
difference when I don’t put this on my face.
In terms of as a primer, my make up stays
on all day, and when it is time for it to come off, it doesn’t melt off like it
does without primer, it gradually just kind of leaves. It takes a few moments to absorb into the skin and then you're ready to apply your make up, to soft, smooth, even skin.
What is a primer? Do I need a primer? Is
a regular question that I see floating around. I used to ask this. But what you need to think is
that this isn’t just a primer, it’s a three in one, which works fantastically
and saves you from buying three separate products. A primer acts as a barrier
between the skin and the product that you are about to apply, so if you’re
applying a nasty foundation, it wont clog your skin up if you put a primer on.
Primers also smooth out the face and make make up application easier and make
make up stay on the face longer. I rarely touch up my make up anymore since
getting this.
It’s perfect for travelling, who needs
three items when this is three in one? It’s also really light weight and a nice
size, so it wont take up too much handbag space.
This is £30.00 but that's basically three products for £30.00, so it works out at £10.00 each. Do you like the sound of this? What is your
favourite primer? How do you feel about primer in general?
Lots of love, Em x

DeleteThis sounds wonderful! A little on the pricey side, but if it works then it's totally worth it. Definitely splashing out on payday :)
ReplyDeleteYeah, I think its pricey because it's a great brand and it does 3 things! xxx
DeleteIt is on the pricey side but it does sound pretty good. Something I'll be saving up for. Where can you buy it?
ReplyDeleteX
It's not when you think its for a 3 in 1, unfortunately everything is expensive nowadays too which isn't cool! Selfridges, Harvey Nichols, online :) xx
DeleteThis seems like such a good product. Hope to try it out sometime.
ReplyDeleteYeah! you must let me know if you do :) x
DeleteSo weird how I've not seen this in Boots!
ReplyDeleteThere is one primer that I use from time to time which is by Laura Mercier. The radiance one, it's a lovely rose gold colour which compliments my skin tone nicely. Will have to swatch this next time I'm in Boots.

They dont sell it in boots, its harvey nichols, selfridges and online and space NK i think:) Ahh i sooo wanna try this eeeek! xxxx
DeleteThis sounds like a really good primer. I will definitely look to getting this once the primer i'm currently using runs out. I've been reading about a few different ones but i'm glad I saw this post as it sounds like it may be much better.
