DrJart Recover Primer

Wednesday, 20 February 2013

Hey Dolls,

I have not posted in a couple of days now due to the amount of uni work I have head lately not to mention my long shifts at work, but I am finally back with a review for you guys, as I have been trying out a new primer which I am totally in love with!

I purchased this not long after I bought my Dr. Jart BB cream which has impressed me so much and has now been my everyday staple, hence why I went out and bought more Dr. Jart Products. I am usually a little sceptical when it comes to primers as I find a lot of them tend to clog my pores. Having an oily and acne prone skin I have to be  careful as to what I apply on my skin, However seeing as not only do I love the BB cream this primer is designed by  a  skincare company I assumed they know what they are doing and they proved me right.

So what does it claim..?

' Create a smooth, matte surface that helps make-up last longer with this perfect pore primer, suitable for all skin types.

Hylauronic acid improves skins surface moisture and 'Art Skin Film' helps to cover fine wrinkles and pores, creating the best surface for applying make-up

The primer helps sebum control and prevents oiliness in the T-zone.'

This is a great product for all you ladies with oily skin/ acne prone skin since It has not broken me out and works great at  stopping oil production through out the day. 

The main ingredients are:

• Sage extract – helps to calm skin
• Rosemary extract –  Anti-inflammatory
• Gall extract – Tightens pores
• Witch Hazel extract – Antiseptic
• Hyaluronic Acid – Anti-aging

I apply this about five minutes before applying my make up as it does say on the bottle to allow it to dry before you apply anything else on to your skin, Once the product is applied to the skin it absorbs pretty quickly and instantly mattifies the skin leaving it smooth as a babys bum. As to shrinking pores I can't say I see much of a difference but I don't suffer from extremely large pores so this is not an issue for me. The product helps to prevent oil production through out the day and pro longs the wear of your foundation.

 The formula is almost gel like, it comes out clear and feels very smooth and soft once applied to the skin almost velvety. Personally I am really enjoying using this product , its great to use on skin even if your not planning to wear any make up just to smooth out the skin. Have you tried out any primers you really like lately?
