The Review - Star product of the week - E.L.F Mineral Infused Face Primer

It has been an awful week for me, work was crazy busy, I am ill and I managed to fall over twice, once off my bike and once because of a door mat (don't ask!).. so I apologise for the lack of posts, I just wasn't feeling it.

But I felt better today and decided to stop the lull with a fun post about a really affordable product. In fact, I only paid $3.00 for this primer from E.L.F during their half price sale and it's fair to say that I wasn't expecting great results for that price, but I was wrong, this stuff is awesome.

E.L.F is a budget cosmetics company which every now and then comes out with absolutely amazing products for almost no money. The primer is called Mineral Infused Face Primer and comes in 4 shades, I bought the Brightening Lavender shade which actually pumps out as a lavender jelly! I was so scared when I first used this, but on application the colour vanishes and all your are left with is a soft smooth face. I LOVE that it has a pump disperser but the packaging is so bulky, sigh, typical E.L.F. Also you only get 15 ml of product vs. the standard 30 ml. But remember it's only $6 if you pay the full price (which you shouldn't as E.L.F always has coupons). I feel like this Mineral Infused Face Primer makes my makeup go on more smoothly and last a little longer. I really like this for the summer as I feel like without a primer my makeup melts really quickly. If you are trying to save money but still want to use a primer, I think this performs really well.

Beware though, that Mineral Infused Face Primer does contain silicone and might not work too well for oily skin as it leaves a dewy finish.

Have you used this? Did you like it? Have you tried any of the other shades? Are they any good? Do let me know, I want to try the others, since I like this one so much.
