During the summer, my dad went away for the weekend for his annual work party/awards evening/meal where they give him accommodation, activities to do e.t.c. When he went to the party he got given a goody bag containing some really nice freebies in there including a few beauty bits and pieces. Obviously my dad didn't want the beauty things so gave them to me and my mum. I thought today I would do a review on all three of these products which he gave to me. I believe my mum got a Clinique moisturiser and a bare minerals powder. I think she got the better option don't you? I still love these 3 things that I got though. These posts are quite long, (well a lot of text anyway) so I think I will split these posts and do one review per post.
1. Revlon Nearly Naked Foundation
I wasn't to keen on this product when I first tried it out, however now that I have gotten used to it, I really like this product. I would say since it is a very low coverage, light foundation, it is meant more for the summer when you are prone to have less redness on your face, however for people with skin similar to mine, this is great all year round as I don't get very many spots. Even though the colour is a tad too pale for me, it can't be helped since they were given out as freebies so they would not have known my skin type or colour. The foundation goes onto the skin well, and I do really like the consistency of the product. I think that with a primer, this foundation could stay on all day. A thing that I do not like about this foundation is that it does not come with a pump, so you have to pour the foundation. This can be very messy and can waste a lot of product, especially early in the mornings when you are still half asleep! Another thing I personally do not like about this foundation is that it doesn't have a high enough coverage so that I can feel confident just wearing this. I know this does defeat the point of it being 'Nearly Naked' however I think I just prefer higher coverage foundations, as I have used quite a lot of product each day building this foundation up to the coverage that I want. Overall however, this product is great. I would recommend this foundation to people just starting out with makeup, or younger users of makeup as their skin is very delicate and so they do not need such a high coverage foundation.
No Pump.
The consistency.
