PRODUCT REVIEW: YSL Flash Radiance Brush



COST: $52
WHERE TO BUY: Amazon, Sephora, Nordstrom, QVC

What it is:
A skin revitalizing complexion enhancer and makeup primer.

What it does:
SOIN PINCEAU ÉCLAT INSTANTANÉ Top Secrets Flash Radiance Skincare Brush is Yves Saint Laurent's latest breakthrough product and the first of its kind. Inspired by the immediate and high-stress beauty needs backstage at fashion shows, this unique hybrid skincare and makeup product provides instant smoothness and radiance in addition to long-lasting evenness of skin's tone, texture, and hydration.

PROS:
- Leaves skin soft
- Lasts a long time

CONS:
- Has a slightly overwhelming fragrance. Not sure why a primer needs a scent.
- VERY expensive for a primer.
- Has built-in brush which is suppose to be useful but in reality is probably making you break out.
- Sometimes when you squeeze to get product out way too much comes out. I wish there was a better control over it.

OVERALL:
I think this is an okay primer. It makes my skin soft when I first put it on but it seems to make my makeup slide off easier rather than help keep it on. I'd skip it if you were tempted to try it. You can find a handful of different primers for less than half the cost of this one. I'll stick to using my Monistat.
