One Heck Of A Blot

Hello there;

At one point in my life I would have never thought about my skin and how make up stays upon it. I thought it you applied it and that was it. Oh how wrong I was. So young, so naive.

I now understand the importance of using concealer, how to contour and most importantly applying powder to keep your makeup in place. I have used many different powders and they all have their positives and negatives. But not many come into my life and I think that they are here to stay. Until I brought Soap & Glory's One Heck Of A Blot.

Isn't the packaging gorgeous. I love Soap & Glorys take on packaging. It is so fun and creative. I even enjoy the names of their products. Keep up the good work!

Where do I start with this product? 
I think I will show you in the insides first.


That's better.

As you can see you get a little "puff" with it. I personally am not over keen on these but they do come in handy when I am out and about. I much rather use a brush, I feel like it leaves a better finish. I love that it has a massive mirror on it. Again also handy for when you are out and about. 

The powder itself looks beige but when you apply it, it is totally translucent. This isn't a powder for coverage it is here to get rid of oil. And boy does it. I have used this only a few times (for photo quality reasons). But each time I have used it, it has stopped my face falling off! I do suffer with oil in and around my t-zone, it doesn't affect me when I am applying my make up. But after a few hours I can see a change in my make up. This guy stops that.

The product itself is a finely milled powder that just sweeps onto your skin with no effort at all. There isn't much fall out either, which I have found with a few powders in the past. I don't like to waste my products! 

As you can tell I am completely in love with this. How I coped before I had this, I have no idea what I was playing at really. It's a game changer!

Have you used One Heck Of A Blot?

  11. Love Soap & Glory products although I haven't tried this - I only tend to use powders right under my eyes on my concealer.
