Korres Silicone Free Face Primer: Review, Photos & Swatch

Hey Sweeties, how is your weekend going so far? :)

The Korres Silicone Free Face Primer is one off Korres's best selling products and its a natural makeup primer with nourishing antioxidant vitamin E, skin-smoothing Jojoba oil, Melissa water, and Edelweiss extract. Its formulated without silicone, parabens, sulfates, synthetic dyes/fragrances, mineral oils, petrochemicals, phthalates, and GMOs. This is a primer that is actually good and healthy for your skin :)

♥ Korres Silicone Free Face Primer.

I have been using this primer for about a year now and I absolutely love it. This was actually recommended to me by a few off my lovely blog readers. At first, I only picked up a little sample size but after falling in love with it, I went back on Ebay and bought the 30ml tube and I don't regret it for a second because this is a wonderful product.

The Korres Silicone Free Face Primer has a white and creamy texture which feels more like a moisturizer than a primer and it doesn't leave my skin feeling greasy which I really like. It absorbs quickly into my skin and my face seems to be a lot smoother and even after I have used it. It has a light citrus scent which I love and find very refreshing.

The Korres Silicone Free Face Primer makes my makeup glide on so smoothly, stays put the whole day and makes my makeup look fresh throughout the day. It makes my makeup last longer and it prevents my foundation from setting into my fine lines. Because its mineral oil free, it won't clog your pores or cause breakouts! Hooray :)

The packaging off the Korres Silicone Free Face Primer is very simple but effective because it allows you to use up everything and don't waste any product.The only ''negative'' thing I have to say about this product, is the price. Its $28 for a 30ml tube which may sound a little expensive for just one primer.

I personally don't mind the price because I like to spend my money on products that I know is good and that I know I will use up. When it comes to face primers, foundations and skin care products, I don't mind paying a little extra money for good quality products :)

I used to use the Smashbox Photofinish Face Primer and it broke me out every time I used it. My skin is very sensitive to silicone so I try to stay away from those. I have used the Mineral Infused Face Primer by Elf Cosmetics which is very similar to the Smashbox Photofinish Face Primer and I haven't experienced any bad reactions with that one. Weird, huh?  

I think the Korres Silicone Free Face Primer is a really good primer and I highly recommend that you check it out if you have dry/normal skin. Its a very moisturizing primer which you can use alone or over your favorite moisturizer. A little goes a long way with this primer :) 

Rating: 5/6
Where to buy? 
The Korres Silicone Free Face Primer is available on korresusa.com for $28. For those off you who live in the US, you can find this at Sephora for $28 as well. I also found it on Ebay for only $13.99 + shipping, so definitely check that out if you want to save a little money. Here is the link to the Ebay seller :)

Have you tried out this face primer from Korres? Do you have a favorite face primer? Thank you for stopping by and leaving a comment :) Xoxo, Christine♥

Ebay Goodies: Zoya True Collection, Mally Beauty, Korres, Shiseido & L'Oreal Paris

Im completely obsessed with Ebay! I love that I can find almost everything Im looking for and the products are usually cheaper than what they are in the stores! In Norway, beauty related products (skin care, makeup, etc) are expensive compared to Ebay so I prefer buying them online, it saves me time and money which is just perfect.

I love to cuddle up in a warm blanket with a hot cup of chocolate and do my shopping. Its much more relaxing and it definitely beats a stressful day at the mall :) I did order a few of these items a while back but since I haven't shared them with you, I decided to include them in this post as well :)


♥ Bevin & Skylar.

Bevin and Skylar is a part of Zoya's True Collection which just recently came out. These are the only two shades from the True Collection that was unique and special to me. Both shades are beautiful so Im really looking forward to trying them out :) You can find Bevin here and Skylar here.






♥ Shiseido The Skincare Day Moisture Protection Enriched & Night Moisture Recharge Enriched.

A few weeks ago I got samples of these products to try out and I absolutely loved them so I decided to pick up the full size products. Im still waiting for the Cleansing Foam from the same line, hopefully it will arrive soon :) You can find the Day Moisture Protection Enriched here and the Night Moisture Recharge Enriched here.




♥ Korres Silicone Free Face Primer.

This is one of the best face primers that I have tried, its silicone free which I absolutely love and it smells really good. It feels really nice on the skin, just like a moisturizer :)


♥ Mally Beauty Volumizing Mascara.

I have heard so many good things about this Volumizing Mascara from Mally Beauty. I definitely have high hopes for this product! :) You can find Mally Beauty Volumizing Mascara here.


♥ L'Oreal Paris Infallible Never Fail Lipstick in Mulberry.

I absolutely love this Infallible Never Fail Lipstick by L'Oreal Paris. Finally a lipstick that lasts on the lips for hours. You also get a lipbalm to keep your lips moisturized, without it the lips are going to feel dry and looked chapped. Definitely check these out if you are looking for a lipstick thats going to last you for hours :)

Have you tried any of these products before? Have you bought anything from Ebay lately? :)
Xoxo, Christine♥

Korres Lip Butter in Jasmine & Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector BB Cream

So I recently picked up the Korres lip Butter in Jasmine and the Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector BB Cream. I have been curious about these two products for the longest time so it was time to pick them up.

I dont think I have read one negative review about the Korres Lip Butters, everyone seems to love them. The Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector BB Cream on the other hand have gotten both good and bad reviews. People will always have different opinions on products, thats just how it is :)

♥ Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector BB Cream.

Im so happy that Vita have started selling the Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector BB Cream, its been on my wishlist for a while now. When I saw the add in their magazine, I immediately asked Simon to drive me down to the city so I could pick it up. Im very excited to try out this product and I really hope that I end up liking it :)

Have you tried any of these two products? :) Xoxo, Christine♥
