This month I got the exciting opportunity to create a bronzy, glowy look with the help of some Revlon products:
The new Revlon PhotoReady Color Correcting Primer made my complexion smooth and it helped foundation glide on easily (I used the Bourjois Healthy Mix in the shade 52). Also, because of its slight pink tint, it helps neutralize any sallowness.
It fills in any lines or large pores and I found that I didn't need to use as much foundation while using this (I only used about half a pump of foundation for my whole face)
The primer is definitely on par with other higher end primers I have tried and much more wallet-friendly. If you can't live without your makeup primer, I think this one is worth a try. It's lightweight, oil free, paraben free and has no fragrance, making it perfect for sensitive skins as well.

The sculpting blush palette in "Peach" is most suitable as a highlight. All three colours in the palette have shimmer, so I found that they worked best blended together and applied as a highlight on the top of the cheekbones. The shades are quite sheer so they are best layered on top of bronzer/blush.
Finally, my favourite of the bunch - Revlon PhotoReady Concealer. I am using the shade 002 Light, which is perfect for brightening the under-eye area. Now if you have any blue/green under tones, I suggest you use a corrector underneath to neutralize those tones, then glide on this concealer to lift and brighten. It glides on smoothly, has a medium coverage and is easy to blend. I set it with my usual powder - Benefit Powderflage - and it lasts all day.
I hope you enjoyed the little demo and make sure you check out the products next time you're perusing the aisles in search for new makeup!
Also if you won last month's Revlon giveaway your prize should be on its way, I mailed everything out this week. Congratulations to the 10 lucky ladies :)
