Hardcandy Sheer Envy Primer Review

Since my first review post was a bit of a negative experience, I will give all my Buddies out there something that I genuinely love.

The Hardcandy Sheer Envy Primer.

Oh, mi amour! 

This primer is seriously is, in my opinion, a makeup game-changer. Using a primer is one of the best things you can do for your face makeup. Primers are kind of like a soft blanket for your skin. They tuck your little pores in and let them sleep away, unseen, so your skin on the outside looks flawless and amazing. They're like babysitters for your pores. 

Primers are usually Noncomedogenic, or they are made to not clog your pores or cause breakouts, like most people tend to think. 

This primer is so silky and nice, it makes my face feel like the smoothest thing in the world, and my foundation loves it too. 

Sheer Envy comes out in a sort of white, lotion-like consistency. But don't be afraid, it goes on perfectly clear. I usually an amount the size of a pea. 

One pro-tip for using this, though, is that you should shake it up before each use. It settles a bit, but once it gets all shook up again it is totally fine. Some people might be turned off at the shaking thing, but come one, man. You're annoyed at some physical activity during your makeup routine? Dude.

Anyway, Sheer Envy is on par with some high-end primers I have. It substantially helps the staying power of your makeup, and it makes foundation application so much easier.

And at $8.00, it is such a steal. 

Compared to my Lancome LA Base Pro Perfecting Makeup Primer, which sells at $42.00.

That was handed down to me, so no, I did not pay that much for something that has an obvious dupe an a price difference of 34 bucks, I do not think I will be buying my Lancome Primer.

Final Verdict: Fabulous. It will make everything Fabulous. Primers are one of those things that gets you from "the average person who is kinda educated in makeup" to "Oh that person knows what she's doing! Can she do my makeup?" I'm serious, too. I have done other people's makeup at least 16 times in the last nine months. That includes my prom queen, who needed help with contouring.
