FIF- Maybelline New York Baby Skin Instant Pore Eraser

I know, I know I've been slacking with the posts lately as I have been quite busy with college and I promise I will be back to posting regularly as of next week ! I am thinking of doing more OOTD's and FIF's so let me know what you think.
 


So on with this weeks FIF.. I had been eyeing this up and was considering ordering this from Amazon as at the time I didn't realise it would be available in the UK. I just happened to be browsing on Superdrug's website and came across this beauty! Long story short the next day I popped in and picked it up along with the Maybelline Eraser Eye Concealer seeing as they were buy one get one half price (I will be doing a FIF with the concealer next week so keep your eyes peeled).
 
I had heard a lot of mixed views on this so I was a bit sceptical. I can be a real sucker for packaging something with I was originally drawn towards, it is meant to make your skin look and feel smooth as well as poreless, which I must agree it does. I had a gel/silicone feel, which managed to fill in my pores and after I had applied my foundation, my skin actually looked flawless and my pores were virtually invisible, result! Having medium sized pores I must say I was rather pleased, although I did notice a slight more oil on the areas I had applied the product, but I think this could be solved with some powder, this definitely hasn't put me off using it.
 
All in all, I do like Baby Skin and would recommend this to anyone with enlarged pores or even if you just want a reasonably priced primer to make your foundation look silky and smooth, at £7.99 I say it's an absolute bargain! I know it has been compared to the Benefit Porefessional but as I have only ever used it once I can't really make a direct comparison.
 
Hope you're all having a lovely day!

Simple Eye Make-Up Corrector Pen



So I'd been sent the Simple Eye Make-Up Corrector Pen  back in the summer and finally found the time to review it ! 

My first thoughts were that this product was amazing ! I don't often wear eyeliner but for me mascara is a daily must .. And I do tend to get mascara on my eyelid no matter how hard I try not to, and for me this was perfect as it's not too wet or too dry..

One thing I have noticed is that (of course) over time the pen tip does become black so when you use it on your eye you have a sheer streak of black, which is a bit if a bummer so I just remove the pesky mascara with one quick swipe! To be honest, it's the best way this product works ! 

Having sensitive eyes I find it difficult to find products that don't irritate my eyes but this literally feels like water! Does not irritate my eyes one bit! The brand itself is aimed at sensitive skin which is perfect for me.. There's not a single simple product I've tried that I have not enjoyed so far! 

All in all I would recommend this product, it's not perfect but it does do a pretty good job !
 
Much love, Nicky xx
