{Review} Revlon Youth FX

Hi guys ! Happy Wednesday ? How was your Heritage day and long weekend if you had one? I still worked on Saturday and I usually have Monday's off - but I enjoyed the little bit of extra time with the kiddo. 

A little while back Revlon send me a cute Press Pack with the new Revlon Youth FX line of products. The range includes a forehead primer , foundation , concealer and face and neck primer. 

"Revlon Youth FX range of anti-ageing products that dramatically transform the look of lines and wrinkles. Developed with filling and blurring technology, all four products in the range contain a unique combination of soft focus powders that scatter light, blurring imperfections, while micro-spheres fill in wrinkles, making them less visible. Each product works in unison with the others, to ensure you look your very youthful best."

I'm 31 , and I love focusing on Anti Ageing products now. I was really excited I was sent the range to try as I love Revlon products - and let's be real any product that claims to make wrinkles and lines look less visible is always a bonus. 
 

Revlon Youth FX Fill and Blur Primer for Forehead R199
Okay ... I will start of with the product I didn't like. This primer is designed to target forehead lines and wrinkles. I don't have to many issues there .. but I felt it was an extra step and product for me personally. The primer has a very liquid-y consistency and dries quickly. I just wasn't blown away by it.
Revlon Youth FX Fill and Blur Primer for Neck R199
Now while I wasn't too impressed with the primer specifically for the forehead - I love the face and neck primer. This is a thick primer - but I love how smooth and blurred my skin look. I love how this primer isn't loaded with silicone and how easy the applicator is very user friendly. One pump is enough to cover my whole face. Personally - this is such a stand out product for me and I will recommend this to anyone looking for a great primer .
Revlon Youth FX Fill and Blur Concealer R199
This is a very nice hydrating and creamy concealer. This concealer comes with a click pen packaging and has a soft cushion tip. I do prefer using a beauty sponge to blend out the concealer. Personally I don't have any dark circles at this stage (thank goodness !! ) but I prefer to use concealer for a more awake look after applying foundation. 
Revlon Youth FX Fill and Blur Foundation in Natural Beige SPF20 R349
I've mentioned quite a few times , since I'm getting older and introduced Retinol products into my routine - I do notice my skin is a lot drier now than it was a year or two ago - which might be why I LOVE this foundation for everyday wear. This is a high coverage ( Personally I would say more of a medium coverage ) foundation with an SPF - something I prefer for everyday wear . This foundation wears well without getting cakey and settling into fine lines. The foundation also didn't oxidize on me (a problem I have with quite a few foundations lately ) . The foundation is also lightweight and won't feel heavy at all during the day. All downside - it's a pricier foundation from the Drugstore. It's always good to look out for specials if it's a bit too pricey for your liking - and those Clicks and Dischem points always can come in handy too. ;)

Honestly - the stand out winners from the range is definitely the foundation and primer - well worth looking into if you are on the market for some awesome new foundations or primers.

  1. Was waiting for this review. I really liked the foundation, but I don't think they have my shade. I found the shade I tested turned me pink...but I really loved the finish.

    The face primer sounds like a gem!

Hi guys ! Can't believe its Friday already ! First off, happy birthday to my brother, hope you have a fantastic birthday today ♥ So Tip Top's facebook page, has been running weekly nail art theme competitions. This week's theme is FARM ANIMALS. Well, usually I don't enter these nail art competitions, but since my little man loves farm animals , I decided to give it a go . :) (I also bummed some of his farm animal toys and books as decoration... Hee hee hee ) The rules are you have to use Tip Top colours... So first off let me mention all the colours I used creating these cute farm animals : French Manicure White, Cream Puff, Peach Crisp, Sherbet Angel, Melting Marshmallow, Lemon Fuel, Black Forest , Twilight and Sexy Bikini ♥ So here follows all the cute pics (sorry this post is a little picture heavy ...)   A cow, a piggy, a cow, a duck and a sheep ♥ I just LOVE these cute farm animals don't you ?? My favourite of

Catrice ICONails Gel Lacquer Review and Wear Test

Hi guys. Happy Monday. How was your weekend ?? Today I will be sharing my review on the Catrice ICONails Gel Lacquer . I have worn this quite a few times since buying the product - so I have a pretty good idea how it preforms. The colour I got was a typical Lynette colour - The Catrice ICONails Gel Lacquer in Donut Worry be Happy. This is such a gorgeous fun pink colour. The range does have quite a few colour options - and what I do like about the range is that no top coat is needed. So while I always top coat polish or gel polishes - I didn't when I tested this out. Since I did mention I have worn it quite a few times - I always wore it without top coat. The polish dries amazingly fast - and is dry enough to not make dent marks on it within 20 minutes. Which I think is pretty impressive for a polish without top coat. The brush is on the thicker side - making the polish super easy to apply. I prefer nailpolish brushes like this since it's mostly just one swipe on each

CATRICE TREATMENTS SERUM REVIEW

Hi guys! Happy Wednesday. How was your week? I totally lost a day with the public holidays and Easter Weekend threw into the mix ... I was pretty convinced today was actually Tuesday. As I mentioned in my New on my Beauty Desk post in February - I got a few Catrice serums from their new range to try out. In total I picked up the Hydro serum as well - so today I will give you a rundown on the three serums I chose from the range to my routine.  Overall - I have a pretty good idea of which ones I love - which ones are good and which ones I'm not 100% sold on.  CATRICE HYDRO PLUMPING SERUM  This serum contains 1.5 %  hyaluronic acid and panthenol to plumps up the skin as well as have a soothing effect on the skin. Hyaluronic acid is well known to hydrate the skin and absorbs easily into the skin super quickly. I love using Hyaluronic Acid in the morning before applying make-up as it gives me a hydrated base to work with. Honestly, while I did enjoy using this serum - I do prefer the Sw
