Laura Mercier: Flawless Hits Rustan's Cebu
8:06 AM
A lot of ladies know that the brand Laura Mercier sets the bar high when it comes to all things beauty-related and enhancing women features naturally. Though it may be on the tier of what could be considered "pricey" , or "high-end" I think the brand has long proven that the customers get their money's worth. Some friends sing high praises have been singing praises about the brands wonders.
I had the opportunity to check out Laura Mercier during their "Flawless Hits Cebu" mini-event in Rustan's Cebu to celebrate one of their banner products: the Laura Mercier Foundation Primer.
As an advocate of foundation myself, I've always wondered if a primer is an absolute necessity and if it actually makes a lot of difference. Laura Mercier, herself a makeup artist, had these things to say about the importance of foundation primers:
- They allow foundation to "stay put" in hot weather.
- Help prevent skin from absorbing talc and pigment from your foundation as well as preventing talc from drawing oil from the skin.
- They contain botanicals such as lavender, orange, jasmine, rose, geranium, grape, kiwi and aloe extracts to soothe and refresh the skin.
So there. I tried the 15-day sized primer that was given away during the event, and while I can't say that it was a HUGE difference, I noticed that my foundation stayed put much longer and my pores seemed smaller. Verdict? I'd say go for it. The Laura Mercier Flawless Primer currently comes in six variations: Broad Spectrum SPF30 PA++, Basic, Radiance, Mineral, Hydrating and Oil-Free.
A makeup event wouldn't be complete without some goodies! Here's what I got pre-event:
