L'Oreal Magic Lumi Light Infusing Primer Review

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!

I bought this primer a few days ago from farmers and I must say I am very impressed with it.firstly the price is about half the price of ysl primer that I normally use but results are pretty much same and I think I like this one even more due to the pearly sheen finish.it makes skin look fresh and radiant. Foundation glides smooth over it thus you get better application, even coverage and flawless finish.i cant recommend this highly enough.

I recently tried out the L'Oreal Lumi Magique Pure Light Primer after hearing fantastic things about it both online and from friends. Sadly though, it didn't work so well for me and I will not be repurchasing!

I love the packaging and principal behind this product - it comes in a sleek, pretty, pearly-coloured pump bottle, and claims to illuminate and prime your skin before foundation. I love the consistency and pearly nature of this product, and how it instantly smooths out my skin. It makes foundation very easy to apply and much easier to blend in, with a subtle glow underneath it. Immediately after finishing my makeup my skin looks glowy, dewy, and really pretty.

After a few hours, however, my skin still develops red patches and I need to top up my foundation just like normal. In addition to this, my skin looked more pourous and lack lustre than it did with just a layer of foundation and no primer. The soft glow was gone, and my face just looked a bit weird!

I tend to have quite sensitive, breakout-prone skin anyway, so it might just be my temperamental preference! But this product really didn't do much for me at all, and I will be returning to my simple routine of moisturising then immediately applying foundation.

Love this primer! It does everything it should. I have dry skin and whenever I use this it feels like my face is so moisturised and flawless. Makes a perfect base for foundation and the light reflects with the primer to give a dewy finish but not oily looking!

i love love love this primer! It makes my skin look so healthy , with the way it illuminates your skin , it is also so hydrating , which i especially love during the cooler months when my skin is feeling a little dull and lifeless, i recommend this to every body for a great skin booster under your foundation during the cooler months . This is my new favorite and will defiantly be buying it again! x

This is HANDS DOWN one of my favorite primers in the world! I makes your skin so glowy, and fresh - Have had some amazing results with this on clients! They all go away absolutely in love with their dewy skin, and a lot of them actually went away and bought after I used it on them hahaha. At $38.99, its a bit pricey for some - But in my opinion, TOTALLY worth it!!!

Gosh I love this as much as my mac strobe cream, it does the same thing for 1/4 of the price. Its beautiful on its own, as a makeup base or as an illuminator/highlighter on my cheeks, nose and chin. The consistency is a bit thin but its goes on and blends nicely. I paid $15 on a beauty selling site on facebook. This is a must n my kit!

For me, a dewy finish is a must with my foundation, so putting this on underneath just makes my skin glow and gives me a slightly dewy finish with my BB Creams. It definitely makes my foundation last longer and I find it helps stop me from getting oily or sweaty in the hotter weather. It definitely provides a nice, smooth canvas for my face. I usually love very silicone-y based primers such as the Porefessional so I'm quite surprised by how much I love this. I do wear it on its own when I don't want any foundation on my face and it makes me look so healthy and glowing. Also as a highlight it works wonders, I do have cheekbones after all!

One pump very easily covers my entire face and unless I want to use a little bit as a highlight, a single pump is all that I need.

It isn't shimmery at all, is a white colour and quite thin consistency compared to silicone based primers such as the previously mentioned Porefessional. I also find it goes over my dry patches quite well.

One con I think some people will find, especially when paying full price, is that the bottle seems quite small for the amount you pay. I don't mind, personally, because I bought mine for $17 online.

The packaging is a very sturdy plastic bottle with a little pump on the top that just gives the perfect amount of product and makes it super easy to control the amount you want. It definitely doesn't look cheap at all. I also love the little gold band/lettering.

Mine came without a lid which is how I got it so cheap and I haven't had any problems with the product going bad or drying out.

So basically I love this product so much and I'm likely to repurchase it.

I bought this product about a year ago because I saw shaaanxo raving about it on her YouTube channel. I'm really into glowing skin so I thought it sounded great. The retail price here Is ridiculous and I would never pay that much for it. Luckily I was able to find it online for about half the price, still expensive though considering this is only a 20ml product.

Anyway, it comes in a sleek little tube and it has a convenient pump applicator which also keeps things hygienic as well.

The product itself is a white, slightly metallic looking, runny lotion. You only need a small amount to do your whole face which is good since it means the small amount of product in the tube It'll go a long way.

After rubbing this into my face, I can definitely see a glow and shine. I personally wouldn't use this product by itself but I have acne and redness to cover. If you had clear skin that was just a bit dull, I think this would look so good by itself.

I've been using this under my favorite Korean bb cream. It possibly helps my makeup stay longer but i barely notice a difference in glow when I'm not using this primer. I'd love to have a product that would erase the need for highlighter but this product doesn't do that for me. Maybe with a matte foundation but i have dry skin so i stay clear of anything that says matte as that usually translates to 'will search out and cling to any dry patches'.

Overall, this product is pretty average to me. I will continue to use my tube all up (I'm just over half done with it) but for how expensive it is, I wouldn't buy it again.

This was a primer I had to get my hands on after I swatched it in farmers and fell in love. It made my hand shimmery, glowy, and looking amazing. Then I watched a vlogger use this in a tutorial and that was the nail in my coffin, and I brought this product the next time I saw it.

The product actually has lovely packaging. It comes with a pearly white and gold colour theme, which I think looks nice and reflects the actual product which is something that makes sense to me. The packaging has a pump like feature which is used to dispense the product. It’s really effective, and means that not much product would be wasted at the bottom of the container.

This primer is a lovely texture. Its thin compared to other primers I’ve tried, but it doesn’t run anywhere. Plus it has almost a slightly creaminess to it which I like. It has a beautiful luminosity to it, with a shimmer component, and let me say it is shimmery but there are no chunks of glitter, so it gives your skin a nice glow, not a sparkly mess. Bonus.

This primer does give my skin a nice glow, and a dewy look. But in saying that, once foundation is applied you can hardly notice it, and then I find it’s not as long lasting as I would have hoped, and when I look in the mirror before lunch, I can hardly notice the dewiness that I saw in the morning. Not ideal.

Overall, the effects of this primer are short lasting, and honestly, I could probably recreate this formula by mixing some of my high beam into a primer that actually is long lasting to create a similar effect so I won’t be repurchasing this.
