L'Oreal Magic Lumi Light Infusing Primer Review

This primer is just simply one of the best primers I have ever used. It consistently delivers! I mostly use this product when I feel like my skin needs a bit of a pick me up or when I am going out and really want my skin to glow. It really does add an extra dimension to the skin and works well under both BB Cream and foundation. The consistency is more of a liquid formula than a cream, it is white and reflective - it reminds me of MAC Strobe cream although it has more of a sheen to it. It comes in a convenient pump bottle which I love as you can easily customise how much product you need to use without wastage. To use I pump 2 pumps into my palm, warm up with my fingers and small amounts to my forehead, cheeks and chin, I then evenly distribute the product and push it into my skin by bouncing the product onto my skin using my fingers, this helps with really getting that product into your pores and helps the product to last longer, which in turn helps your foundation last longer.

I also sometimes use this on top of my skin after applying foundation if I really want to add an extra highlight on my cheekbones and forehead.

It has now become my Holy Grail primer

I love this primer, it is just as good as Mac Strobe Cream. Worn under my foundation, it makes my face glow without looking shiny. I find a little product goes a long way. I really wish the bottle was bigger though!

Wow this does what it says and I am delighted with the product. This primer is easy to apply; just smooth in very lightly with fingertips and it doesn't take much to cover your face. I put a small amount on to the back of my hand and mixed it before applying to make sure it was workable. I waited a few minutes before applying my foundation, with a brush of course, and its worth the wait because my makeup looks radiant and noticeably improved. It is also still fresh at the end of the day. My skin is looking good after cleansing too. I definitely recommend this product, its good value for an excellent result and I will definitely buy again.

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.

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!

First of all, it is slightly on the expensive side for the size of the product BUT i love it! Its a nice perly silky primer that glides on super smoothly, its easily blended in with fingers. It makes a very nice smooth soft base that makes my foundation just so easy to blend over top of it and it just gives the skin the most natural glow effect. Sometimes i even mix it in with my foundation and its even more glowy :) happy to say i would 100% recommend this primer to anyone who likes a dewy finish :)

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.

I am usually not a frequent primer user. So trying this product was really good! Let's start with the good:

The product itself is pearly/shiny and goes on the skin smoothly. It is not heavily scented and I had no reactions in using the product. It is a nice size bottle; small enough to fit in a handbag or cosmetic bag but big enough to last a decent while. It has quite a runny consistency; this is both a good and bad thing in that it does go on nice and smoothly however it can be a little on the messier side.

Now for the cons. THE PACKAGING! To start with, I could not get the plastic topper cap off the product! I tried everything (including the classic classy bite it off). This only resulted in pulling the whole pump tube out so I just used it that way. Eventually I managed to get the topper cap off so I could use the pump. Then another issue arose. It just pumped out watery product. Even after shaking it. Gross. Let alone the pump spraying the product everywhere. Eventually I managed to get rid of this and could finally use the product how it was intended! Phew.

Once I was able to use it proper I can say that the pump was quite a good way to package this product as you only pump a small amount out at a time, reducing the risk of getting way to much out at once.

I liked the packaging; simple and elegant. It also had instructions (well not full on step by step) which suggest its uses; alone, under foundation or as a highlighter. The last primer I had did not have any kind of instruction so I quite liked this (especially for someone who isn't a huge user of primer).

I did find my makeup lasted a bit longer when I use this under my foundation compared to when I use no primer at all. It made my foundation spread on smoother and it seemed to stay nice throughout the day.

Overall, it is not a bad product - the main reason I rated it lower was because of the issues I had with the packaging. Personally, I don't know if I would buy it again at that price as I feel the other primer I have used (which was significantly cheaper) did a similar job. What I do prefer about this product to my last primer is the smoothness of the product.

I’d heard good things about this product, and once I’d seen a few more reviews up on BR I went out and took the plunge.

It comes in quite a small slender bottle with a pump and what I find is that one pump gives me the exact amount of product for each application.

This is probably my favourite find of the year so far I just lurrveeeeee it. It evens out your skin tone and makes your foundation look even and perfect and (wait there’s more!), I’ve found I love wearing it just on it’s own for a dewy look at the weekend.

My last primer was Clarins Beauty Flash Balm, which again I loved, but I reckon for half the price, this one does the job, just as well.

I really like this primer for giving a nice glowy, dewy, illuminating effect to the skin. I use one pump to cover the whole face which is a perfect amount and it is best spread on with fingers! It is a really lovely consistency and creates a nice even skin for applying products on top of. It is best used under a dewy type foundation/bb cream - i find it makes other foundations a bit patchy.
