Touchle Eclat has become a cult product for any gal who loves to look good. And who doesn't?! As someone who is prone to dark circles I tried Touche Eclat as soon as it hit the shelves and have remained hooked on it ever since. It simply achieves what no other brand can, a light natural finish with an applicator that leaves you totally in control. The small brush and button at the end means that you can control not only where you're applying it, ...
...with touche eclat is not to slap it all over the place, Im convinced that its critics just dont know how to use it! You only need a tiny amount and to dab (not rub) it into your skin to leave just enough coverage and a flawless finish. I would reccomend TE to anyone, it's simply unrivaled in the beauty stakes! ...

Advantages: covers scars, tattoos, birthmarks
Disadvantages: expensive, not suitable for all

...they have faded to white, dermablend is not suited to covering white scars as they still end up visible, unless you put a 2 inch thick layer on (which lets face it attracts attention and defeats the object really). If you have keloid scars (still in the red, itchy stage) then yes this will work wonders but for my type it was useless. I also found that it is quite thick and your skin needs to be well moisturised beforehand too. It does mean that ... Read review

Advantages: makes skin look brighter, smoother
Disadvantages: doesnt cover imperfections

Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse Foundation. I reciever a tester at the Clothes Show, and tried it on for school. I liked it, so I bought a full size one from boots for £6.99. I know it's possible to get it cheaper, on ebay you can get two for around a fiver, and a lot of the time they are on special offer at shops such as Superdrug and Boots. I got 'Sand' colour. It is very simular to my skin which was good. At first touch it wasn't like conventional ...
...mousse you would have a good idea of how it felt (although i am not suggesting you do this!). Once i put it on my face it spread out easily. A small amount covered a large amount of my face. It felt very light and was very easy to apply. The colour matched my face well, and the parts of my face with few imperfections looked very good, however, the parts of my face which are red with spots or just imperfections were not very well covered up, and were ...

Advantages: doesnt irritate my skin
Disadvantages: expensive, badly designed, poor coverage, heavy appearance, difficult to apply

...gaze was drawn to the L'Oreal true match minerals foundation. I hadn't seen it before and the makeup stand seemed to hype it up (obviously...damn advertising!!..always gets me!) I have since seen the television advertising for the produce featuring Penelope Cruz with amazing flawless looking skin. When I saw the pot I thought it looked really cute and picked it up without even looking at the price. There were a range of 9 shades but most were midrange ...
...went for the palest shade that wasn't sold out which has honey glow. The product is part of a range which includes eye shadows, blushers and bronzers. All of which are in the same style containers and have the same advertised as being made from 95% minerals and having no perfume or preservatives The product comes in a small plastic pot which contains the powder with a brush sticking upwards on top of the pot and a clear plastic lid. It looks very ... Read review

*REVLON SKINLIGHTS FACE ILLUMINATOR* *INTRODUCTION* The first time I came across this product was whilst browsing the make-up isles in Boots. I had heard endless compliments about Revlon, and decided to taske a look and see what the shelves had to offer. Although I didn't need anything (yep, I admit it!) this product attracted my attention. After reading the small text on the back, I decided to try a small amount out on my cheek, and loved what ...
...a few colours to choose from, and depending on personal choice and skin colour, there is one to suit every person! To begin with, I bought the 'Peach light' illuminator, but after a few days of using it thought that I could do with something which gave my face a little more colour, so also purchased the 'Golden light' product as I liked the effect this had on my skin even more than the first!..Yes I admit, I'm a real product junkie :p *PERSONAL ...
