Too Faced Shadow Insurance Lemon Drop Eyeshadow Primer Wants to Wipe Out Red - Makeup and Beauty Blog

I've been on a culinary kicking lately, ya know, cooking more than usual, because equally much equally I love the frozen nutrient aisle at Trader Joe's, I call up I've hit my upper limit for microwaveable bean burritos this year. And all of the fourth dimension I've been racking upwards at the stove has also led to a startling discovery: lemon zest — the scrapings you get from running a lemon against a grater — that stuff is the muthu truckin' shiz!

It contains all of these aromatic, flavorful oils that brand it a neat seasoning for dishes like fish, pasta, salad, and pretty much annihilation and everything else I've been adding information technology to lately.

I bet if I'1000 not careful, what is even so just a zesty infatuation could explode into a full-diddled lemon zest addiction.

And so what? Where would I be?

Oh, I know — probably thinking about lemon zest while I play with the new Too Faced Shadow Insurance Lemon Driblet Color Correcting Eye Shadow Primer ($xviii). 🙂

It's basically a pale lemon yellowish version of the original Likewise Faced Shadow Insurance, a creamy eyeshadow primer designed to offset discolorations on the lids and extend the habiliment time of eyeshadows applied atop information technology.

I've long liked the regular version, even though the thought of it isn't that revolutionary anymore. As far as similar lemony/yellowish primers, Benefit makes one chosen Lemon Aid ($20) that didn't really work for me, and then I wanted Lemon Drop to stone. Plus, I kinda the proper noun. The yellow tints are designed to neutralize redness in the pare.

As with the O.G. Shadow Insurance, pulverization and cream shadows grip this stuff like a grizzly comport, although I practise detect some minor creasing afterwards most six hours — corking, but not quite upwards to the priming power of my current crush, NARS Pro Prime Smudge-Proof Eyeshadow Base, which I've worn with the same shadows for 12 hours without creasing.

Like Pro Prime, Lemon Drib also intensifies the colors of eyeshadows layered on top of it, simply to a lesser degree (and much less than applying shadows moisture does).

And then there's the matter of the color. Unblended, information technology'south a gorgeous pale yellow — then pretty! — but blended it turns ashy and grey (same issue I have with Benefit Lemon Aid).

I'm guessing it's just a little besides light and cool-toned for my tan.

Cool-toned pale pretties should take much better luck. Even though it doesn't actually work well for me, I nonetheless call up it's an above average middle primer (merely one taken to task by NARS).

PRICE: $18
AVAILABILITY: Available now at Sephora stores and also online
MAKEUP AND BEAUTY BLOG RATING: B

Is information technology getting hot in here?

Then…I've been trying to go along my trap shut well-nigh the latest True Claret episode to requite you lot enough time to see it, but I'm dying to dish!

Did y'all watch it? What did you lot recall? Of Sunday's episode? I thought the writers (shirtless Vampire Eric scenes) did a great job (shirtless Vampire Eric scenes) with the story overall (shirtless Vampire Eric scenes), and it felt like the whole serial (shirtless Vampire Eric scenes) got back on the right track. 🙂

Oh, and who else LOL'd when Eric mistakenly chosen Sookie, "Snookie"?

Snookeh!

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
