BD Trade Secrets Face Lift

The BD Trade Secrets Face Lift is a lovely product! Pictured above is the shade Chestnut. The product is described as a cream gel moisturiser which acts as an illuminator for the skin for use on the face and on the body.

It’s a great product to use under your foundation especially if you have dry skin as it is highly moisturising. It contains apricot, evening primrose oil, vitamin A and E. It does add warmth and radiance to the skin due to its illuminating properties.

Personally for me it’s a little too oily to wear all over my face on a daily basis, however on occasions when my skin gets a little dry I would reach for the Face Lift as a treatment for a bit of a pick me up for the skin. Priced at an affordable £8.99

BD Trade Secrets Vital Skin Long Wear Foundation

The BD Trade Secrets Vital Skin Long Wear Foundation is a long wear cream foundation with anti ageing properties, so again it’s really very moisturising! For me I find it’s a little too oily for my skin, I have combination skin, so it isn’t quite suited for me as a foundation for everyday use, however if you have dry skin this would be a great option!

It has a medium coverage, apply an extra layer for full coverage, and works really well teamed with the Face Lift product 🙂 Priced at £9.99

BD Trade Secrets

The lipstick pictured above is the BD Trade Secrets Velvet Cream Lipstick in Couture. I love this shade! It’s a really pretty pinky brown. It works well for all skin types, for me it comes up as a lovely shade to wear in the day as it’s fairly light yet warming. A really beautiful creamy shade! 🙂
