Melli Cosmetics Review!

So my boyfriend's mum went to a high-tea over in the heart of Perth city a while back and came back with some goodies for me from Melli cosmetics!

These are what I received:

1. Melli Cosmetics VELVET silk perfection mousse primer (RRP $49.00 AUD)

2. Melli cosmetics Beauty Pod "airbrush" fx sponge (RRP $17.50)

She also gave me a Melli voucher which I haven't used, not sure if it still works but if it does and you'd like to purchase any Melli products, the code is PROMO20 for 20% any full priced item :)

I love the packaging, it's so cute.

Anyway I thought it was super interesting seeing as I've been on the lookout for a new primer as well as looking to try the beauty blender - but this will do just fine. The primer aims to smooth out the skin as well as provide a nice smooth base for makeup to adhere to.

Apply a small (pea sized) amount of primer onto face, spreading using fingers

After primer

4. Using the pod, dab into L'oreal True Match foundation and dab onto face with patting motions, using the smaller end to dab concealer into problem areas.

Finished look!

Sorry, I know its a little rushed and my skin isn't the best in these photos!

Overall I would have to say both the primer and the pod applies my L'oreal True Match extremely naturally, and makes my face look almost "airbrushed" as claimed. However as the pod is a little moist, it tends to soak up a bit more foundation and apply quite sheerly. I would stick to using my stippling brush and fingers over this since I have problem skin and prefer a more medium coverage. Not so sure about the primer still, I feel like it does slightly improve my skin but not so sure about how it works to keep my foundation on my skin - I guess it does extend the life of it slightly but as every other primer so far it does end up rubbing off eventually.

If you have any questions about these products, please feel free to ask me!
