Prime Time


Hello Lovelies!

I thought I would talk to you today about the primer that I have been recently using which as I'm sure you can see is the Rimmel Fix & Perfect Pro Primer. 
I have tried quite alot of primers including the No.7 primer which I wasn't overly impressed with and the Smashbox primer which is A-M-A-zing but oh so expensive.
So I picked this one up in Tesco of all places to give it a try!



I actually really do like this primer,. I think at the time I purchased it, I got it on offer for €4.99 or something along those lines so I'm afraid I don't know the current price. But you do get a decent amount of product for the price.
The thing I love about this primer is that it doesn't give your face that horrible silicone-y feel to it that quite a few other primers do. I hate that feeling and as I apply my primer with my hands it leaves my hands feeling icky too! But this is just like applying a slightly matt moisturiser..it doesn't leave my face feeling horribly dry or itchy either. In regards to helping my make up last through out the day I defiantly noticed a difference with a little touch-up here & there my make up was pretty much the same as when I done it that morning! Only downfall I can find with this product is that it smells not so great but thankfully it doesn't linger on the skin after you apply it so I can get over that! 

If you have any face/eye primer recommendations please leave them below as I'd love to try something new!
