Review: Me Me Me Seventh Heaven Moisturising Face Base

A few months ago I took advantage of a Groupon deal that Me Me Me had going on and this primer was one of the products that I purchased. I hadn't really heard that much about Me Me Me other than brief mentions in  one or two YouTube videos. I checked out their website first to have a look at the products and the Seventh Heaven Moisturising Face Base sounded like a really nice product to use, so I thought I'd give it a whirl. In Me Me Me's words this primer is a ''Moisturising facebase enriched with Shea Butter, Vitamin A and Beta-Carotene to prep & prime skin.'' Sounds good huh? I wasn't really sure what results to expect due to my oily/combination skin but a few reviews I had seen convinced me that this 'facebase' would smooth over my skin nicely and not leave it feeling greasy or like there's still something sitting on top of it. 

Texture: The texture of this primer is goooorgeously luxurious! It's thick and smooth though still light in a way, it doesn't feel heavy at all. It glides really nicely over your skin and leaves it soft and ready for foundation application.

Scent: I love the scent of this primer, it's exactly how I described L'oreal's Hydrafresh Active Day Ultra Hydrating Gel-Crème in the review I did a few posts ago - fresh and zesty! I think it has a very grapefruit-y scent to it.

Results: I've been loving the finish my skin gets when I use this primer. In my opinion it preps the skin perfectly for foundation. It leaves your skin with a sort of velvety finish while at the same time leaving the skin soft, supple and moisturised. I would say it is almost as good, or just as good as the Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer in helping to reduce the appearance of pores and fine lines. I wouldn't say this primer helps your make-up stay put for hours on end, I believe it performs just as well as any other good primer in that aspect. But what I love about it is that it it feels like I'm using a really nice moisturiser. As I said, the finish is velvety though moisturising and nourishing so it's still great for oily skin types but also good for people with drier skin types that want a primer that feels lovely to use and doesn't over matify the skin. I've used this primer in both cold and hot conditions and can confirm that it did not make my skin any more oilier at any time! Definitely a repurchase for me, another 10/10 product for Luxe'n'Lush!

A point I want to make is that when I bought Me Me Me's Seventh Heaven Moisturising Face Base I think it was around £12 if I remember correctly. The price has now slightly gone up to £15, however it's currently on promotion on the Me Me Me website for £12.50.

Wish List #2

1. Urban Decay The Vice Palette

2. Louis Vuitton Neverfull MM

3. Ray Ban Wayfarer [RB2140-901]

4. Illamasqua Rich Liqud Foundadion

5. Mango Quilted Chain Bag

6. Chanel Coco Mademoiselle Eau de Parfum Spray

7. Me Me Me Angels With Halos Skin Illuminator

So my second wish list is slightly on the expensive side, but hey who cares??! It's a wish list so anything goes! Haha. Just when I was contemplating on whether to get UD Naked 2 Palette, The Vice was released and had it was luurve at first sight. The colours are so gorgeous! There are vibrant yet neutral colours so I literally do not have any excuse to not want it despite the hefty price tag! Though at least the price isn't as steep as the LV bag or Ray Bans! I've been lusting over this LV bag for some months now but I do not think I would ever have the courage to fork out the cash to actually buy it! I am prepared to settle for a Michael Kors tote bag in a similar style as the prices aren't thaaat bad at the Michael Kors outlet in Bicester Village. Now, the Ray Bans I guess aren't too bad either if you manage to get them on offer. I have a replica pair that I fortunately came across when I went to Barcelona (they do not say Ray Ban anywhere on the glasses) and of course the quality does not compare, I tried a pair of RBs on at Boots and they felt so luxey and sturdy at the same time! Also my pair have this annoying floral pattern in the interior of the glasses, at least it can't be seen while wearing the glasses. I was so glad when I came across the sunglasses as I couldn't find anything like them anywhere. I did browse through a few on eBay but I wasn't sure about how they would look in 'real life'.

The Illamasqua Rich Liquid Foundation is a foundation I've been really itching to try! It's maximum coverage meaning it's perfect for bad skin days. I was going to get the Estee Lauder Double Wear Maximum Cover Camouflage Makeup for Face and Body but none of the shades worked for me wahh. When I was going to get the Illamasqua foundation the shade the lady said would work for me was out of stock. Always the case with me!! None of the shades match me or the one that does isn't in stock!

I saw this cute Mango handbag not too long ago but didn't get it as I was spending my money on something else of course. So it has been on my mind ever since! If I get a chance I probably will succumb and get it.

Ahhh Coco Mademoiselle! This has been on my mental wish list for an age and a bit! I never get it because it's one of the more expensive ones but I end up stocking up on not so expensive frangrances which just end up adding up to the same amount or more I guess, but I'm crazy like that. However, you shall be mine one day, Coco Mademoiselle!

Last but not least, the Me Me Me Angels With Halos Skin Illuminator. I do not have any liquid highlighters and would really like to try a good one. I do have a couple of Me Me Me products, one I love and the other was an extreme let down! I would like to give this 'illuminator' a go seeing as I do think highly of one of my Me Me Me products. Have you tried it? What's your favourite liquid highlighter? I have tried out Benefit's High Beam but I didn't like it enough to want to purchase it.

Well that's it for this Wish List installment! Hope the week has started out amazingly for everyone! x
