This review is on a product that I didn't realise I would become so infatuated with - the Australis Makeup Finishing Spritz.
 |
| My nearly empty bottle. |
How much is it? $15
How much product do you get? 150ml
It also comes in a smaller size!
The good?
The spray itself is perfect. The nozzle spritzes a perfectly even spray of product all over your face. No annoying squirting.
It has a light, pleasant fragrance thanks to the Rose Water.
It’s got a bunch of uses. These include:
- It’s a great face and body refresher spray when it’s hot outside.
- It gets rid of dry, flaky bits on your face. I have acne so I often have dry, flaky bits on my face where I have blemishes healing/drying out. They become a hell of a lot more prominent when I stipple on my foundation. After I’m done with my makeup, a few spritzes of this and they’re gone. For real. I actually discovered this by accident... score!
- It’s the perfect way to finish up the whole ‘putting on makeup’ process. It adds some well-needed hydration and freshness to my skin.
- It’s great for that mid-arvo slump when you feel like your makeup is looking less-than-lush and a little past it's prime. Plus, it gives you a great boost.
It looks cute, doesn't weigh a tonne and is easy to chuck into your bag.
The not-so-good?
It doesn’t live up to it’s claim. Australis claims that this stuff "prevents makeup from fading throughout the day..." but it really doesn't. Not for me, anyway. In all honesty though, I didn't think that it would and that's not why I bought it.
...
I didn’t think I’d love this product so damn much but I do. I’ve already bagged myself a backup because my bottle’s about to run out.
Have you guys tried this little gem? What did you think?
havent, but totally want to now. is it a priceline purchase?
ReplyDeleteYep! You can also get it from Target and Kmart but Priceline was the only place where the bottles were sealed/not used.
ReplyDeleteIt's a great little product and definitely worth a shot.
Question? Does it stop your forehead from having an afternoon shine?
ReplyDeleteBy 2pm you could fry an egg on my forehead.
Ah another product I have never seen in my life. It is australia exclusive?
ReplyDelete@ Romina: haha! Nah, it doesn't help to keep shine and oil at bay. Boo.
ReplyDelete@ Yami: hehe Yeah, I believe it's only available in Australia and maybe NZ, too.
sounds great might have a lookie at my local and check it out :)
ReplyDeleteYou should, Jade - it's pretty damn good! hehe :)
ReplyDeleteI love this as well. I've reviewed it too and I love it because it just gives a fresh feeling to the skin and in summer its the best!
ReplyDeleteIm glad i read this post because i was actually thinking of buying this! Thank u for your honest review!! Xo
ReplyDelete@ Dannii Yeah, I didn't expect to love this stuff as much I do! It's certainly a handy little product to have. :)
ReplyDelete@ PopBlush You're very welcome! I hope you give it a shot.
