No7 Colour Calming Primer is a green coloured primer, designed to correct red complexions (opposites in the colour wheel) allowing your true colour to show through. At £10.50 for a 40ml bottle, this
seems to be a perfectly reasonable price compared to most primers; also
considering it’s from No7, known to carry a heftier price tag for the high street!
Application
The product has a nice thick creamy consistency so the
application isn’t very ‘messy’ thank lord! I felt though that I had to put a
lot of product on to fully even out my skin tone which left me with a slightly
(and unsightly) green tinge! Minus value for money points! I also therefore, wouldn’t
recommend this product to people who like to wear easy/minimal make up as it
takes some covering up!
The primer left my skin feeling soft and had a slight sheen to it, Shame it was
a green sheen!
Mid-day review
So this picture was taken around half 1, about 6 hours after I had applied my
make up. I had noticed that the product had unfortunately started to shift
around my T zone and chin which was very disappointing. There was still no sign
of redness appearing (just a few scars and blemishes had begun to show) which
is after all; what the primer is meant to conquer!
End of the Day
This picture was taken around 6 o’clock (10 and a half hours
after application) there was redness appearing around my nose and my forehead
and chin where looking… dewy (bit gross, sorry! truth hurts!) though the
imperfections I have on my cheeks where still holding out which is fairly impressive!
Scores! (out of 10)

Creepy morning and evening photo! (will work on it) |
Hard to tell on the picture, but I think you can just see the difference in the chin; this is the same side of my face flipped I will also point out!
Have you used this product? What are your Primer Views!?
