Sephora Blusher & Perfection Primer

I have purchased this for a very long time in Singapore.  I should have reviewed this much much earlier.  But I somehow ter-left it out. Since now there is a big hoo haa on Sephora opening soon in Malaysia, it kind of reminded me that I purchased something from there some time back. 

Let’s go one by one. I have been using the primer on and off simply because I’m not so much of a primer person. I find it a bit troublesome to put another layer of product all over my face. But I must say, my makeup especially my blusher lasts longer with the use of a primer. So sometimes, I just apply the primer on my cheeks. 

When I squeeze out the primer, there are some glitter elements but once it is on the face, you hardly see any glitter. The primer glides smoothly onto your face and your foundation will go on nicely. Aside from keeping my blusher sticking longer onto my cheeks, I think I have nothing else to comment about this product .But come to think about it, that’s what primers should do so I guess it does its job :)

Now the blusher. I really love the color! I bought the Framboise attraction no. 3.  It is a combination of pinkish and orangey and a hue of earthy tinge. I think it will work for both fair and dark skin. The funny thing, is that the color on the palette and when apply on the skin is very different. If the SA did not suggest for me to try this color on my cheeks, I would never have picked it up. It has a little shimmer which is just nice, not too much so you will not risk looking like a disco ball. It is very suitable for day use.

Verdict: I can live without the primer. I adore the blusher, right color and shimmer for me. I will consider re-purchasing it when Sephora opens here in Malaysia.

Price: Mid-Range :  Primer (30ml) – SGD 30 approximately RM 70+ after conversion . Blusher  (0.1 oz) – SGD 22 approximately RM 52+ after conversion

Where : Sephora Singapore and hopefully Sephora Malaysia soon
