And here is what Chanel has for Spring 2011.! I don’t like the eyes, you can see some better pics of those looks here, but I do like this shimmery powder. I think it looks probably gorgeous on skin! <3

Is there anything you like? :)

Lately I’ve been testing 2 eyeshadow primers, and the 1st one I’m going to write about is e.l.f. Mineral Eyeshadow Primer. I purchased it one or two months ago when e.l.f. had free shipping, and with it I purchased few other products I’m going to write about very soon.

The packaging is very simple, I like that it’s comes in a tube and that it comes with sponge applicator (I don’t like applying anything with my finger because my nails are a bit longer). The formula is very nice – it’s quite soft and feels silky under fingers and on skin. It absorbs very quickly. This is a mineral eyeshadow primer, but I use it with all my eyeshadows. They blend easily over it and it makes them last *really* long which is amazing. Another great thing about it is that it doesn’t contain any presevatives, parabens or chemical dyes, but it does contain Vitamin A, C and E.

You can get this eyeshadow primer by ordering it from e.l.f. website (UK) and it costs £3.00 (approx. $5.00). It contains 4.5 g which means it will last for quite a long time because you need the smallest amount for each use. :) It truly recommend this base if you’re looking for something that works, but still budget friendly. :)
