Instablur...




I'm never normally one to shop at the body shop after thinking everything in there was so expensive. To be honest, I only really seen it as a shop for gifts for those that love pampering and never really looked into anything properly. I've read and watched some amazing reviews about the body shop instablur, which I decided to pick up on a Black Friday deal with 50% off.. but don't worry, theres currently 40% off everything in the body shop if you hurry!!
I mainly heard of this product through Gabriella at velvetgh0st, and she raves about it. It is a primer, and it's main purpose is to maintain makeup throughout the day, applied directly underneath for a flawless base. I find this slightly pricey but I have to agree it does do its job. I normally go for primers that are are cream based as I find them easier to apply, but this a velvet touch almost gel consistency. I find this quite hard to spread on my face and therefore feel like I waste a bit more product, but overall I am pleased with the results that this product provides and would definitely repurchase in the future. 
If your looking for a new primer I'd definitely read into this one, as I find it keeps my makeup on for at least 8 hours a day!

  11. I actually really love The Body Shop, they're makeup and skincare is amazing. This sounds like an awesome primer apart from the fact that it doesn't spread well - I really don't like that!

  12. It sounds really good! I do really like the body shop, I find it can be expensive but that they always have sales or if you join their loyalty scheme then you always get 10% off which is so good! x

  17. I use nanoblur but I hate that that is applied over make up so this definitely seems like one to try, especially as I have a soft spot for primers
