Dr Jart+ Platinum Beauty Balm!!


Hey, 

I purchased this about 3 weeks ago now and I'm so impressed! The main reason for me to buy this was to stop using such a heavy foundation as I am becoming more excepting of my combo skin...Yayy!  



Everyday Wear
I can’t really fault this product when I'm wearing it as my everyday makeup! My university flat is quite cool and of course it’s very cold outside so I haven't been sweating it off so it looks great all day long! I have been wearing it with a primer which I think has definitely been helping the length of wear! It’s not shiny buts gives that natural illuminating look with powder over the top, which I like and sure going to be loving this spring/summer.

If you looking for an everyday BB cream replacement for your foundation but still want a nice coverage that is not heavy, this could be a product you may want to give a go because I know I'm glad I purchased it! 


Hot and Stuffy Nursing Environment 
Wearing makeup while being a nurse is one of those parts of beauty that is normally a no go area; mainly because it is so stuffy on the wards that you end up sweating it off a few hours in! Most nurses working on wards I have been on go makeup free! I'm not 100% comfortable with my skin yet as it’s still a little red on my cheeks so I have been trying this instead of my trusty Revlon Colorstay Foundation!

I personally wouldn't say this was the best product for this kind of wear for those that have the same skin type as me! My skin becomes very shiny after about an hour on the ward and the product just slides right off my face! 

Pros
  • A light product but has a medium coverage 
  • Gives a nice illuminating look which will be great for spring/summer 
  • A good 6 hour wear time when worn with a primer 
  • Contains SPF 30
  • Brightens skin 


Cons
  • Can leave skin looking shiny (oily skin type)
  • Make up slides of face in warmer climates 



You can get this currently from Boots website here for £14.67 (Normally £22)
