Tag Archives: smashboxSmashbox release Photo Finish Luminizing Foundation PrimerI know, I know: I talk about Smashbox’s Photo Finish Primer A LOT here (and, just to give you fair warning, I have a version of this en route to me as I type this, which I’ll be reviewing soon), but in my defence: 1. It’s awesome. 2. They’ve just released this new “Luminizing” version. Now, Sephora don’t give a whole lot of information about this product. From the description, I can see that the formula itself is the same as the other Photo Finish Primers, so we can expect it to feel like skin, and make our faces smooth, soft and ready for foundation. What’s different about this formula, however, is that it’s a colour described as “sheer golden beige”, which will apparently give skin a “beautiful luminous glow.” I’m all for the beautiful luminous glow, but I suspect the “golden beige” bit will be a problem for my not-even-remotely-golden-or-beige skin, so this sounds like it’ll be much better on those of you who have that kind of skin tone naturally (or get it from a bottle). Either way, it’s always great to see new incarnations of my favourite primer: the more, the merrier, right? This is $38 at Sephora. Smashbox Limitless Eye Liner
Anyway, the pencil sharpener search can be called off with Smashbox’s Limitless Eye Liner, because, as you van see, it comes with its own sharpener inside the cap, so you’re always guaranteed a perfect point to apply it with. That’s not the only reason to buy this, of course: it’s also waterproof, and claims to last for eight hours without smudging, plus there are five colours to choose from. I’m drawn to ‘peacock’, which is a gorgeous looking teal colour, but you’ll find your standard black and brown here, too. This is $19 at Smashbox. Smashbox Cosmetics now available in the UK at Debenhams
Good news for my fellow UK-based Smashbox Cosmetics fans! The brand has traditionally been a little hard to get hold of over here, with eBay often being the only place to buy some of the pieces. This month, however, Debenhams have come to the rescue: they’re now the exclusive UK stockists of Smashbox, and you’ll find everything from the fabulous Photo Finish Foundation Primer to O-Glow blush, and everything in between. Best news I’ve had all day. Find the Smashbox section here.
