Bourjois Flower Perfection Foundation in 52 Vanille

I am amongst many beauty bloggers who adore Bourjois Healthy mix foundation. If you haven't tried the Health Mix foundation go for it! You can see my review on Healthy Mix HERE... But before you go... have a read of this foundation review!




Unlike Healthy Mix foundation the New Flower perfection is a medium to full coverage foundation. Depending on the day and how my skin looks I adjust what foundation I use each day depending on what level of coverage I would like. Therefore having Bourjois Healthy for a lighter coverage and Bourjois Flower Perfection for heavier coverage in my kit I can't go wrong!


I am shade 52 in both foundations which I love because all too often I have bought another foundation by the same brand in the same colour I have previously bought, yet they are completely different colours!













Lovely packaging easy to use, the sponge applicator that comes in the lid of the product is pretty useless but don't let that turn you off the product. Pump action bottle. Gorgeous foundation easily blendable and great medium to full coverage.




 What do you think?

Bourjois Delice de Poudre in 52

I have heard so many good things about this bronzer and I finally purchased it recently!


It is brilliantly pigmented so a little goes a long way. With little glimmers of gold for radiance...It reminds me of my St Tropez Bronzer which is more than double the price.


I do love Bourjois products, quality products at a great price point.










Love

Bourjois Mineral Radiance powder in 02 Vanille

I use this product as my setting powder after foundation. The product is really strongly scented which may put some people of but I don't mind it too much.


Lovely finishing product, doesn't quite match bourjois foundation of the same shade (vanille) I found this slightly more orangey. But I found I could easily overcome this by only using a light dusting of it to matte the foundation down a little.


Filled with radiance boosting particles for brighter looking skin.


Bourjois says:




Mineral Radiance, developed with unique hot-pressed technology
Thanks to our unique hot pressed technology, its texture is as fine and lightweight as that of a loose powder. It softly glides on the skin to reveal the natural glow of your complexion and provides a matte, even and natural finish.

Benefits for the skin
Its non-drying formula lets the skin breathe, and contains anti-oxidant vitamin E to take care of your skin.









Lots of Love

Bourjois 3D Effects Lipgloss in Rose Hypothetic

This is the first Bourjois lipgloss I have purchased and I have to say I am glad I did!


This gloss is a lovely subtle colour, with shimmer particles which catch the light beautifully. Not sticky at all and wears evenly without white caking.


Have a look for yourself.....














What do you think?


I will definitely be repurchasing in other colours too!

Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation in #52

I have seen this foundation around for a while and thought it may be a light coverage and so have never looked into it further, although my friend recently tried it and loved it! So I thought I would give it a go!





I would say the foundation is a light to medium coverage and smells gorgeous!

It is obviously a 'healthy mix' of  Apricot for radiance, Melon for hydration, Apple antioxidants and Ginger for Energy. It makes me wonder why we are putting anything other than these ingredients on our skin!

The smell reflects the ingredients, very fruity!  It glides on very smoothly, although the scent does disappear after pro longed wear.

It wears fairly evenly and it leaves a very dewy finish so if you are after a matte foundation I would say this is probably not for you, although I just matte it down with powder and it seems to do the trick! As I do like an in between!









I do think that mind over matter has a lot to do with this foundation as you feel good wearing it! It isn't heavy and with all the yummy ingredients you feel like you are actually helping your skin out rather than covering it with a mask everyday.

I would recommend this foundation if you are happy with a light to medium coverage with a dewy finish to the skin.

The colour range with the foundation is also great for me as I have yellow undertones to my skin! I am using shade 52.




I am thinking of buying a shade either side of 52 too, for my more paler/tanned days!


Colour: #52
Smell: Fruit
Packaging: Plastic pump bottle
Price:£9.99

Do you have this foundation?

What do you think?

Lots of Love
