L'Oreal Magic Lumi Light Infusing Primer Review

I really love this product. I don't like using foundation as I cannot stand the 'plastered on' effect it has. But this is such a great substitute, as it smooths out my skin, gives it a fresh glow yet feels like I have no makeup on at all. It also leaves my skin feeling very soft. Also only need to apply a small amount to fingertip and when applied seems to go a long way.

I've only recently started using primer, about a month ago I purchased this. For a silky soft primer that illuminates the skin this is perfect, leaving my finish glowy and dewy. The packaging is beautiful and simple yet elegant and is small and easy to carry around with you for travelling etc. The pump is a bit iffy at first but after a few pumps the product comes out easily and I have had no issues since. For a primer that isn't bad on price, silky and soft and lets your makeup last all day long I highly recommend this.

Never having used a primer before I was unsure what this product would do for me.

I found this primer made my skin feel fresh as well as smoothing out my skin and evening its tone.

My foundation stuck around for alot longer and my skin felt like it had a nice glow.

What it didn't do was clogg my pores which is something I had expected!

A great primer - leaves my skin silky and gives a great glow, This is the first primer I have tried and love how soft it makes my skin and how much easier it is for me to put my foundation over top!! In love - will never wear foundation with out it again!

I wanted to buy MAC strobe cream but heard this was a dupe for it so thought I would try it first to see if I liked it before I shelled out the money for the strobe cream.

I don't even need to buy the strobe cream now because I LOVE THIS! Its definitley a dupe for the strobe cream from what I have noticed but the plus side is the packaging is smaller and easy to store and is so much cheaper!

The texture is quite thin making it easy to spread and doesnt have a smell (from what I can tell) which makes it pleasant to use. Its a white shimmery colour which fades away when applied and leaves a beautiful glow to the skin.

I've had this tube for so long and a little goes a long way, I usually use 1 pump to do my whole face, sometimes two when I'm feeling a little dull and want some extra glow. I didnt find it helped my foundation last any longer than usual so I usually use another primer with it.

I will be buying this again when it eventually runs out!

This primer is delicious. It adds a glow and hydration to my skin. It sits wonderfully underneath my foundations and rivals my high end primers. It's a really liquidy consistency and doesn't necessarily fill in pores but it does smooth your skin, allowing product to apply well on top of it. The primer comes in a super hygenic pump dispenser that I find pumps out the perfect amount for my whole face. I can't comment on the increased longevity as my foundation usually stays on all day however it doesn't make it wear off any faster which is a definite positive. The price point is really good and I would say it was very comparable to my hourglass mineral veil primer in both texture and use. I take a pump in between my fingers and then pat it over my entire face, I find this is the best way to ensure it sinks in and does the best job that it can.

I have heard some amazing things about this primer so picked it up for a great price from splash store. The packaging is a little bit cheap looking and the lid is a bit leaky, although the rose gold lettering and pump seal add a nice touch.

The scent is a little strange, somewhat sunscreen like (as far as I can tell there is none in this product), mixed with a sort of green tea scent. A little weird but not off-putting and this disappears as soon as the product is absorbed.

The formula is quite runny but blends out really beautifully, soaking into the skin leaving it feeling smooth and hydrated. I find one pump does the entire face very easily. This leaves the skin looking a little shimmery (not sparkly) and a little more perfected. When you apply your foundation as usual over top it leaves your skin looking dewy and fabulous.

I have quite large pores around my cheeks and nose so my preferred primer is something that is geared towards pore filling or blurring (such as Benefit POREfessional) which is not this sort of primer. I do find though that I can layer the two together, applying the POREfessional first (as this dries super quick) and then this primer. I then can have the best of both worlds, luminous skin without crater like pores. I love wearing this with a matte foundation to make the finished affect a little more luminous. I do also find this is great on dry skin days. Would recommend to people who love that dewy finish, or for use in combination with another primer to combat combination skin.

This product is great for all over luminization on the face, it has a thinner consistency than strobe cream but is pretty much identical to the now discontinued strobe liquid. Does a great job of giving the face a glowing appearance.
