New in my make-up bag : Fresh Glow Luminous Fluid Base by Burberry

This week, my new product is FRESH GLOW LUMINOUS FLUID BASE by BURBERRY : A Burberry runway beauty icon, this multi-use base illuminates the complexion to create the signature Burberry dewy glow. (I chose the universal shade, Nude Radiance No.01, which is suitable for any skintone, but it also exists in Golden Radiance No.02)

Fresh Glow Luminous Fluid Base by Burberry

If you remember from my first beauty post, I don’t like to spend a lot of time on make-up, although I do like to look as good as I can! Also, I want a very natural result – like me but better! So, any product that makes it into my make-up bag has got to be easy to use but give a great and natural result.

So, I invested in the the Fresh Glow Luminous Fluid Base by Burberry, partially because I love the packaging but mostly because it serves three purposes: (Oh, and I couldn’t resist adding the lipstick in “Oxblood” to my purchases – I just love the colour!)

• it can be used to illuminate the skin, when used under or mixed with foundation
• it can be blended into eyeshadow to enhance the colours of the eyeshadow
• it can be used as a highlighter

To find out, more on how to use it, see below:

Used under or with foundation

It can be used as a primer under your foundation or mixed with it to give a dewy glow, without sparkle or glitter. Skin just looks radiant and healthy. As I am fundamentally lazy I just mix it in with my foundation and I love the result.

I think it would also work well when applied under your foundation and would improve the performance of your foundation, regardless of the brand. As it is 50 percent water it also provides hydration for your skin.

Blend with eye shadow

It can also be blended with eye shadow, although I admit I only use it with eye shadow for an evening out so it is not it’s primary use for me.

But, I like the fact I could do this if I was aiming for a more glamorous look, as it creates a deeper colour.

Use as a highlighter

It can also be used to highlight cheekbones, the bridge of the nose, and the Cupid’s bow.

As I have the Ambient Lighting Palette by Hourglass (see here), I don’t generally use it for highlighting, although when I am applying eye shadow, I like to use a tiny bit of the luminous glow in the inner corner of my eye to make my eyes sparkle!

The reason I love this product is because it is so light and incredibly easy to apply – it just glides on and its  light-reflecting formula gives extra radiance and helps to blur imperfections.

Also, I love the packaging – not only is it very pretty but the pump bottle ensures that you don’t waste too much product and keeps it hygienic.

“Fresh Glow can make dull skin look radiant. It’s a multi-use product that can be worn alone to give a natural glow or mixed with foundation for a flawless finish. It’s my makeup kit essential.”
