L’oreal Visible Lift Radiance Booster

L’Oreal has numerous primers available, and Visible Lift Radiance Booster is among its better selections. Well, except for some problematic ingredients that simply can’t be ignored.

Visible Lift Radiance Booster comes in a squeeze tube with a twist-off cap. The primer itself is a lightweight, pink-colored lotion that feels hydrating and smoothing as you apply it. Though the lotion itself is very pink initially, it blends into skin to provide a subtle pink pearl effect. The pearlescence is attractive and gives the impression of dewy skin (and because of this, is best for those with normal to dry skin).

This primer provides a smooth canvas for makeup, and doesn’t settle into fine lines or pores as the day wears on. It also extends the wear time of foundation by about an hour or so; not bad, but better primers can go longer.

Ingredient-wise, Visible Lift Radiance Booster offers a lot of pluses, with skin-replenishing and skin-restoring ingredients, as well as antioxidants.

The issue is that, as with most L’Oreal products, this primer contains fragrance and additional fragrance ingredients that can irritate skin. Over time, and especially with daily use, these ingredients can weaken skin and even make it drier, which is counter to a product intended to hydrate. This is otherwise an excellent primer.

Pros:

• Lightweight lotion feels smoothing and hydrating.
• Provides an attractive dewy pearl to skin.
• Helps with makeup application.
• Contains skin-replenishing and skin-restoring ingredients, and antioxidants.

Cons:

• Contains fragrance and fragrance ingredients which can irritate skin.
