Review : Garnier Skin Renew Anti-Dark Circle Tinted Eye Roller + Swatches

Hey lovelies

the first time i saw this at my local drugstore , i graped it right away , it looked like a really promising product 





Description
Instantly roll away dark circles. Caffeine Gel + Rollerball energizes and stimulates microcirculation. Lemon Essence brightens. Tinted mineral pigments instantly corrects dark circles. Over time, lack of sleep and daily fatigue make eyes look tired. Microcirculation slows and the delicate skin around the eyes becomes thinner and more translucent. Dark circles and shadows appear. Skin Renew Anti-Dark-Circle Roller is right for you if you want to instantly correct the appearance of dark circles and brighten the skin around your eyes.






Directions
Gently roll Skin Renew Anti-Dark-Circle Eye Roller under the eye from the inner corner to the outer corner, one to two times. Use finger to smooth in any excess with fingertips.






 consistency is runny , almost like a sheer tined liquid
very easy to blend , insistently brightens up the eye area 
perfect for any morning , fast makeup routine , i've been using this on days when i don't feel like wearing makeup or foundation .








 
 the cool roller ball refreshes the eye area
it doesn't settle into fine lines but it does crease on the upper lid a little , nothing too major though .
does not need setting with powder , just blend with your finger tips and you're good to go 









on of the cons is that it's only available in 2 shades , light and medium-deep 
this is a swatch of "light" on NC20 skin







coverage is light , this is not ment to be a concealer ,  it's more of an eye brighter - healer , a BB cream for the eye area ?
so it won't cover really circles but it will make them look better , also it's high in caffeine so it's supposed to lighten them too.






for the record , i will be purchasing this again , i absolutely love it

Bourjois healthy mix foundation & concealer review

Hey guys

i've been wanting to review one of my favourit foundations ,  the bourjois healthy mix foundation !






Product Describtion :

70% more radiance and flawless complexion for up to 16 hours!

Bourjois' 1st radiance-boosting fruit therapy foundation for a flawless complexion for up to 16hrs!
  • Apricot > radiance

Its exquisite glide-on formula blends onto the skin for a flawless, yet natural finish.

And.. it's good for my skin:

----

What i think :

let me start off by saying that it does live up to those promises , it does stay on nicely looking all days long , even in the hot weather , my makeup stays fresh and put !

it didn't break me out even though i have a very sensitive acne prone skin

Coverage is light to meduim and you can definitely build it up , but if you're into full  & high coverage foundations , this isn't the foundation for you

it's perfect for day time coz it looks absolutley natural in the say light , and is also very easy to blend.










52 Vanilla swatch





                          the best part about this foundation is that when i take it off , i find my skin glowing , in other words , happy ! i guess that's because of the fruit mix in it .







Cons : the pump doesn't really work sometimes !



Foundation Rank : A-
Would I By it again : Yes !
