Palladio Herbal Primer

This is the only primer I've ever used that doesn't break me out or feel heavy.

I'm not kidding you.  It's amazing! And before I go into further details, I want to make something clear.  I have said in the past that I don't care for primers because all they do is clog your pores.  However, during the circumstances in which I needed to wear cosmetics that'd keep my makeup from melting off; I bought this primer thinking that for $12 it was worth a shot.  

I had heard reviews about it before and they all had good things to say.  Some of theses reviews even stated that it paralleled with the high-brand primer, Smashbox.   The only difference was the price (Smashbox being priced at $40 a pop).

Guys, this is the best primer for the best price.  It's so smooth, it goes on like butter, and if feels like it's not even there! I tried this for a full week and I haven't broken out yet.  ;) Wooo!
-----------------

Application:  Take a little less than a pee-sized amount and divide that around the face, blend

Skin type: All

Tips: It may not feel like a lot, but trust me, it'll keep. Don't keep applying it because you can't feel it on your skin!

------------------

Definitely worth the money, folks! :D

Good luck!

Palladio Makeup Trial

The Mission: The target, Palladio makeup line, is to be worn all week in an effort to find out whether it's a good "bang-for-my-buck".

The tools: (1) Palladio Herbal Primer (2) Palladio Herbal Powder-Finish Foundation (3) RPC: Rice Powder

Original Contact: Youtube. I came across the brand last year as I was deciding whether or not I needed a setting powder.

History of Target: As stated on their official website, palladiobeauty.com, under the page "About Us":
"Palladio Beauty Group is a company based in Hollywood, Florida formed by a group of experts in the cosmetics and beauty industry on November 1^st 1999.

The company was formed with the principal idea of providing high quality products at affordable prices.  

PBG is the manufacturer of Palladio “Herbal & Vitamin Enriched Cosmetics”.

Palladio is a full line of herbal and vitamin enriched cosmetics.  Enriched with essential herbs and vitamins such as; Green Tea, Chamomile, Ginseng, Ginkgo Biloba, Aloe Vera and Anti-Oxidant Vitamins A, C, D & E to improve the skins elasticity and combat aging."

Additional Information: After intense research, there has been no sighting of ONE bad review.  Not a single one.  All consumers seems to be overall very content with this line of cosmetics.  This, at the time, seemed highly suspicious since the prices for a seemingly a high quality brand is quite low.  Reviews have even compared said brand to designer brands like MAC, Smashbox, and Makeup Forever. 

Present Observations: The Foundation had immediate impressions.  It has a thick consistency and when applied it smells of powder--this last fact is an understandable and highly logical idea since the product is called "Powder-Finish".  Primer is incredibility helpful and works quite well.  The powder give a nice finish and keeps oil at bay longer than other powders previously owned. 

More to report at a later date.
