bareMinerals Complexion Rescue

Today ladies, it's ALL about the base.

A few weeks ago, when I attended the bareMinerals masterclass event I was introduced to their latest product, Complexion Rescue. Described as a "tinted hydrating gel cream" I was a little bit curious at their description of the product - 'gel cream' just doesn't sound quite right but, I was all sorts of wrong.

I've been giving it a good old try over the last few weeks before writing something about it as I wanted to really see if it lives up to the hype. I even wore it whilst up in London on the hottest day of the year and, yes it can stand 36.8 degree heat and it didn't move at all. 

The one thing I will say about Complexion Rescue is that if you tend to go for a product that gives you a lot of coverage, then this won't be for you - it will give you enough coverage to perk up tired, dull looking skin and leave you with a fresh, glowing finish. But don't rely on it to cover up blemishes as you'll need something a bit heavier or, a dab of concealer.

What I love the most about it is the way it leaves you feeling very hydrated and fresh. I didn't use a primer or moisturiser before applying and, it felt amazing. It's easy to apply, blend and will not make your face feel 'heavy' (y'all know what I mean!). Plus, it has SPF30 in the formula, leaving your skin with a hint of a glow.

Seriously, it's ticking all the right boxes for me. A new addition to my everyday makeup has happened.

bareMinerals Complexion Rescue is available from various outlets, including their own website, Debenhams and Selfridges.
