Pure Review ♥

I've been using my Pure stuff for a few days now so i figured i would do a review.. I'm going to start with the foundation, i really really really wanted to like this foundation but i just can't! :( The consistency is too thick, it doesn't work well with my 187 brush, when applied it doesn't give that much coverage I'd say light to just barely medium coverage, it goes on okay but after a while it looks as if i have dry areas on my face and i just really hate it and I'm annoyed because i keep buying foundations in the hope that I'm going to like them and they're starting to stack up. The only good thing i have to say about this foundation is that it has a nice smell, i think it smells of apricot.

On the other hand i really like the blushes they're pretty pigmented, i really like the Shimmer Pink it doesn't look as bright as it does in the pot, when applied it just gives a nice pinky glow to the cheeks. The Peach is also nice it looks really natural, its a little powdery but it doesn't look powdery once it's on your cheeks.

I think i would try more products from Pure in the future.. Just maybe not their foundations, i think I'm going to try Max Factor Lasting Performance foundation next.


Thanks for reading,

Pure Haul ♥

Yay, my Pure stuff arrived this morning! I'm very excited about this as I'm still searching for the perfect foundation, so i had a look on the Boots website and found this one and of course it was buy two get one free so i had to try some of their other products so i picked out two blushes in Peach and Shimmer Pink since I'm loving blush at the moment, i wasn't expecting the pink to be so bright but it actually looks really lovely and i can't
wait to try it!
I've never actually heard of Pure before and I've not heard anyone talk about it either but it does look like a really good brand. It's a little more expensive than your typical drugstore brands but not quite as expensive as high end brands, the foundation is £14.19 and the blushes are £7.83 each and the packaging is really good too, its kind of rubbery a bit like NARS i guess although I've never owned any NARS products, and the foundation bottle is made of plastic which i think is better than glass as it won't break as easily if you drop it, and it also has a pump which is definitely a good thing!

Anyway I'm off to try out my new makeup, thanks for reading and don't forget to follow me! :) Charlotte. xx
