Laura Mercier Foundation Primer review

Laura Mercier’s Foundation Primer is a lightweight, invisible makeup base that claims to leave your makeup looking “fresh and colour-true all day”.

Laura Mercier Foundation Primer

It contains vitamins A, C and E to protect the skin from environmental stresses that have an ageing effect on the skin. It also comes in oil-free, radiance, radiance bronze, SPF, hydrating and mineral versions.

The primer itself is of a creamy, gel-like consistency that is off-white in colour, but applies transparent. 

There is a lot of hype and love around this primer, so when Birchbox gave its subscribers the opportunity to sample a Laura Mercier product in their April box it was a no-brainer for me to choose the Foundation Primer

Birchbox - Royally Good April 2015 box review

Birchbox is a monthly beauty box that includes 5-6 deluxe samples of beauty and lifestyle products that are tailored to you.

You get to discover new products and test them out in the comfort of your own home with no pressure to buy the full product if you don’t like it! However, if you do enjoy it, you can purchase the full sizes from the Birchbox store with the most recent month’s brands being available with free delivery (min. £10 spend)!


Birchbox April 2015 Royally Good

To celebrate the upcoming birth of Kate Middleton and Prince William’s second child, Birchbox have themed this months box around the new royal baby. The Royally Good box comes in two different colours - pink for a girl and blue for a boy - and the box that you receive is a surprise to everybody. To add into the fun, the different coloured boxes are also part of a competition. To enter, you need to take a photo of your box and upload it to Instagram, Facebook or Twitter with a description of what you would do if you were Queen for the day. You also need to make sure that you add the hashtag #HRHBirchbox and by tag @BirchboxUK. Once the royal baby is born, if it is a girl, all of those who uploaded a photo of their pink box are entered into the competition for a chance to win a collection of pink beauty goodies. If it is a boy, all of those with the blue box are entered instead to win a collection of blue beauty goodies!

I was incredibly excited to receive the pink box! A few weeks ago, myself and my boyfriend welcomed our beautiful new baby girl into the world. Therefore, to me, this box also feels a little like a celebration for our second bundle of joy! Funnily enough, as a random fact, I was pregnant with my first child at the same time Kate Middleton was with Prince George as well as us being pregnant with our second at the same time, too. In my eyes this theme couldn’t have been more perfect!

Here is what I received in my box this month:
