Benefit Porefessional Primer Dupe

I can proudly say that I have found a dupe for the well loved Benefit Porefessional, a primer known to minimise the appearance of pores and smooth the texture of skin. It's crazy popular in the makeup world and has been voted as best primer MANY times, but it's price of £24.50 is a downfall...
While playing with the skin enhancers and primers on the No7 counter, I came across their Brilliantly Bare Beauty Enhancer. It is known to smooth away imperfections, minimise the appearance of pores and leaves a matte finish. Also, it is only £12.50?!

REVIEW & SWATCHES: Hourglass Modernist Eyeshadow Palette



Never in my life have I seen an eye shadow palette like this one?! I received it as a gift from my Mum for Christmas and I have no clue how she managed to get her hands on it, but she did!

I have the Hourglass Modernist Palette in the shade 'Infinity' which is one of the warmer palettes out of the range, but is the best one for me. As you can see, it comes with five eye shadows - this one having 4 mattes and 1 shimmer in the middle. I forced myself not to use it until I featured it in a blog post, since the amazing 3D ripple effect of the shadows will soon go once I've used it a ton. So for now we can admire the palette's beauty...
