Ben Nye Luxury Powder | Buff. Review

This is unused, it wont come full to the top.

I am a big fan of Ben Nye luxury powders, I already own the famous by Kim Kardashians makeup artist - Mario Dedivanovic banana powder.
I have done a video review on both powders so click here to see a full review and more!

These powders are amazing, i don't think there is any other powder to compare to these.
My under eye creases a lot so i love this powder to set my concealer and even some grease prone areas like forehead, nose and chin. It really does last all day! Its my holy grail product.
 You can use this all over the face but unless you are super greasy it's not necessary, plus no one likes a powder face :|

 There are hardly any blog reviews or youtube video reviews on this shade which is called Buff, i found that annoying when trying to look it up before i bought it, as i have to buy online so i need reviews and photo's to see whats best for me.
As you can see the packaging has a sifter top which i know a lot of people complain about saying that it's "awkward" "Crappy" "The worst packaging ever" .... I hate when people say that! Seriously though, this is theatrical makeup, just because Kim Kardashian made it famous doesn't mean it's a product for the high street. There is no need for fancy packaging, it wasn't made for that. If this was a high street brand like Maybelline or even Mac I'd understand it not being great packaging, but it's not so people need to get over it. Rant over.

This isnt blended in fully. You wouldnt be able to see it if it was.. Remember that my hand is different to my face colour*

Obviously my hands are a bit paler than my face but i wanted to show you the powder.
This matches my skin tone the best, i was actually stuck between cameo and buff, but decided cameo would be too pale for me and i was right. Buff has a bit of colour to it.
I would say that its best for warmer skin tones i.e Mac NW 's. Im unsure of NC shades. If you are more yellow in your skin then i would probably recommend the banana powder, but still see for yourself anyway..
I am an NW20 or a mix of NW20/25. This shade (buff) blends in nicely with my skin tone. My Nars sheer glow shade is Santa fe if that helps.

To see this makeup tutorial click here. This was using NW20 concealer so that gave me a highlight on its own...

These powders are micro milled so they are super fine and soft.
They have a great range of shades from light to dark skin tones, and also come in translucent and neutral set, also rose petal.
You may think that this bottle (1.5oz/42gm) is small, but it will last a very very long time!
You need to use it sparingly, you really don't need much at all.

Hopefully i have explained it enough to help anyone that wants to buy it or know more about it.

Don't forget to check my youtube channel and subscribe for videos on makeup, fashion, life, reviews etc... Also any video suggestions you have, leave me comments on my videos!

There aren't many websites that sell these powders in the UK but i either get mine from :

• Gurumakeupemporium
   
• love-makeup

These powders sell out fast! and they don't come back in stock as fast as they sell, so if you do want it then don't hesitate because you could be waiting months. There are a few places in London that sell it. As for the rest of the UK im unsure of places that would sell it but im sure google will tell you:)
