    Like it was made for me!

    This is something I’ve been trying to find but didn’t know in what form the solution could be. I’m old enough that I’ve been there in the 1990s focusing on plucking my eyebrows even though they were already relatively non-existent from the start. The result now at 45 years old is that my eyebrows are very thin and, above all, frustratingly uneven. Additionally, the color of the individual hairs varies awkwardly, there are dips and empty spots, almost scar-like areas where it has been completely impossible to get color. If the color has stuck, it has typically absorbed into the dip so that the color appears darker than elsewhere, and thus it’s hard to get the eyebrows to look evenly beautiful and natural without using a really dark color everywhere. Furthermore, my eyebrows are very asymmetrical. On one side, they start much further away from the center line of my nose than on the other. It’s hard to even that out without it looking unnatural and painted on one side. This product is the solution! I mean, absolutely. I go through my eyebrows with a pencil across the whole area, usually I brush the eyebrows very lightly afterwards (not so much that the Brow Fix product comes off). I use my beloved Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz Medium Brown eyebrow color and start with very light strokes to fill in color in my eyebrows. Thanks to Brow Fix, the color sticks evenly all over, and I can shape and intensify it however I want. Because the color sticks well, I can also bring the inner corner of the eyebrow on the other side closer so that it creates a more symmetrical result. This product doesn’t change the fact that I’m not a master makeup artist and my techniques definitely have a lot of room for improvement. But within my own skill set, this product helps me create the eyebrows that I enjoy having.

    I love this!

    I'm 45 years old, I have a tendency to puffiness, darkness and some deep lines under the eyes. This product seems to be just what I need. The shade is perfect for me, meaning it's not too bright so that it would emphasise the issues under the eyes. It's also very light so applying it without getting it stuck inside the lines is much easier than with some other products I've tired. It goes in lightly and smoothly, I use a small concealer brush to tap it in and I use just a tiny bit at a time. I feel it clears the skin around the eyes while maintaining the natural skin texture. For me this is a winner product.

    Lovely!

    So, this has done wonders for my skin's well-being, it feels amazing to apply, dries quickly and in the morning my skin feels really refreshed and hydrated. In practice, my skin doesn't need any night cream in addition to this. I'm almost 45 years old, my skin varies between either dry sensitive or normal, rarely oily. It works really well for me!

    Doesn't suit me or I just can't use it

    I've tried using this in different ways (primarily varying how well I let the moisturizer or other products dry, etc.) but I still haven't succeeded even once without having to go back to square one and leaving this out. Additionally, I didn't notice any significance for the appearance of my pores, this also slides off and crumbles away from under my makeup even if I let it dry peacefully. For me, this was quite a big investment in a product that I can't use, unfortunate. The product does feel nice and velvety and spreads easily, there's nothing wrong with that. Either it doesn't suit my skin type or I'm using it somehow incorrectly. I'm almost 45 years old, my skin is variably dry sensitive or normal, rarely very oily. On my cheeks, near my nose, and below my lips, there are the largest pores and other indentations and bumps.

      Hey, Thank you for your review! 🥰 I'm sorry to hear that the product hasn't worked as expected ❤️ KVD Beauty Lock It Pore Refining Primer is a silicone-based primer product. This means it works best when paired with a silicone-based foundation! 😊 Also, not all skincare products are suitable to be used with any primer, and often this requires experimenting with many combinations to find the best one! 🩷 For dry skin, I would generally recommend hydrating primers, as they help the makeup apply evenly on the skin and often add longevity. I'll also link a few of my own favorites for dry skin! 💧 lyko.com/en/smashbox/smashbox-photo-finish-primerizer--hydrating-primer lyko.com/en/by-lyko/by-lyko-grip-that-glow-primer-30ml lyko.com/en/milk-makeup/milk-makeup-hydro-grip-primer-45ml I hope you can still use the product locally, for example, just on the nose area to help with skin texture! Please note that a pea-sized amount is enough for the whole face, so a small amount will do! 🤍 I hope this helps. Have a lovely day ❣️

    Do what you promise

    I naturally have very straight/stiff and somewhat short lashes. This has made a significant difference when used about 3 times a week. The lashes feel a bit darker, and especially the length shows a clear difference. Some lashes seem to get more excited about the growth serum than others, but it really works at least for me. I haven't experienced a significant difference in fullness, but I find it easier to work with mascara when adding length, so I don't see it as a problem. The makeup application has definitely improved with this. It's also quite economical.

    Lovely!

    I wanted an alternative to foundation for everyday situations and quick outings. This was an absolutely fantastic find! The color in the tube looks a bit dark, but on the skin, it almost melts into my own skin tone. Such a wonderfully soft texture, which only requires a small amount to create an even and radiant surface on the face without feeling heavily made up. In pictures, the skin also looks healthy, natural, glowing, and even. I noticed that the skin needs to be well-moisturized for this product to really shine. My recommendation is to use a moisturizer first. I apply this in a small amount at a time with my fingers, it seems to be the best method for me. The skin feels velvety soft. (My skin is somewhat sensitive, partly dry, and on the other hand oily in the T-zone. I also have dents and scars on my face that are not emphasized at all with this product, even though it feels quite rich when it comes out of the tube.) I recommend it!

    New favorite!

    I have been looking for a setting spray that suits my skin for a while, and this one came up in some comparison (my skin is a bit sensitive, sometimes very dry, and sometimes oily, especially around the nose). I really like this a lot, the product spreads evenly as a light mist on the face easily, the scent is wonderfully fresh, and best of all, the makeup both smooths into the skin softly and stays looking fresh for a long time ahead. As the title says, new favorite for me. :)
