A Dupe For Farsali Rose Gold Elixir?!
As I mentioned before, primer is my a must for my makeup routine, and a good primer canacts as an undercoat aka a base for foundation and is able to make it stay longer. The primer might be a dupe of the Insta-famous Farsali Rose Gold Elixir is Nyx Cosmetics Honey Dew You.
Brand Description: “Inspired by honey’s golden glow, we developed a primer that neutralizes the appearance of discoloration and redness. Our innovative light reflective gold flecks create a luminous look that will help keep your skin looking radiant all day.”
It was a bit of scary for me to put this primer on; it gave me an impression that this is a very rich and extremely hydrating primer. Since it’s quite humid here, greasy face is so not welcomed. However, I was wrong! This actually is a light-weighted primer that has gold flecks inside. I believe most of instagrammers already saw the wonder of using a few drops Farsali Rose Gold Elixir in your makeup routine; though this NYX Honey Dew You might be a better opinion, price wise.
I love everything about this primer; the bottle; the name, the gold flecks, and the applicator. My foundation went on smoothly, what I love this primer the most is once you put it on, it felt like your foundation stick on your face pretty good while still blends well. However, I can’t really say this is a dupe of Farsali Elixir, since the Farsali one is oil based, though NYX Honey Dew You does have a thick consistency, it’ is water based. However, the price difference is pretty obvious, Farsali Rose Gold Elixir costs $54 and Nyx Honey Dew You costs $17( plus Ulta always have sales of Nyx products). The only downside is this product contains perfume, and for this reason I might not use it often. After all, it's never a good idea to put anything contains perfume on your face. What do you think?
