Haul: Laura Mercier Foundation Primer and Silk Crème Foundation from beautyMNL

Hey guys, this would be the last haul post for today. A lot of sales are going on lately so I couldn't resist stocking up on items that are on my wishlist and also those which I wanted to try out.

Haul: Laura Mercier Foundation Primer and Silk Crème Foundation from beautyMNL

Laura Mercier has been my go-to when it comes to concealers but I have never tried their face products (except for that tinted moisturizer compact which included in the Flawless Face Palette). I picked up a couple of their best-selling, award-winning face products: Oil-Free Foundation Primer and Silk Crème Foundation when beautyMNL had a 20% off promotion.

Laura Mercier Cosmetics Foundation Primer (Oil Free)

I almost never use any primer for everyday use. My limited foray with this particular makeup product is limited to the Smashbox Primer sample which I used a couple of times. I didn't like how it felt so silicon-y on my skin so I decided I don't like primers at all. Laura Mercier's oil-free primer is in gel formula and at first use, felt very lightweight on the skin. This product might change my view of primers in general but I need to test this out more.

Laura Mercier Cosmetics Silk Crème Foundation in Cream Ivory

Whew, buying a foundation online is truly a pain in the butt. The shade I choose (Cream Ivory) seems to be a good match for my skin tone, but I've only used this once and at night. I need to see how this foundation fares in daylight. I don't have any medium-heavy foundation in my stash right now so I decided to finally try this out. This feels lightweight yet is able to cover more stubborn spots and even out my skin tone. Good oil-control and lasted pretty much the whole night.
