Essence Fresh & Fit Awake primer review/recenzija

Before Essence new collection came to Bosnia I watched plenty YT videos about their new collection and everyone was praising this new primer. Essence before had primers only in limited editions, but not in their regular collection. I was really excited and I definitely wanted to try it! Even though I stopped wearing this primer because it broke me out, you guys wanted to read review so here it is!

Prije nego je nova Essence kolekcija stigla u Bosnu, ja sam gledala nekoliko YT videa u kojima su djevojke pokazivale novu kolekciju. Odmah sam znala da hoću probati ovaj prajmer, jer su ga svi hvalili. Inače Essence prije nije imao prajmer u svojoj ponudi, osim kada se radilo o limitiranim kolekcijama. Iako ne koristim više ovaj prajmer, jer mi se javljaju bubuljice od njega vi ste željeli čitati recenziju, tako da sam je odlučila napisati.

So the full name of this primer is: Fresh & Fit Awake primer that gives healthy glow and pore minimizing effect. It is formulated with vitamin complex and cranberry water. So on the packing you can read this: “Ultra smooth texture with wake up effect. Let your skin instantly healthy glow. Visibly pore minimizing, for an even skin tone. Contains complex of vitamin B3, E, provitamin B5 and cranberry water. Use alone or under makeup”! You get 30 ml of product or 1.01 fl. oz.

Potpuno ime ovog prajmera je Fresh & Fit Awake primer that gives healthy glow and pore minimizing effect. Formulisan je sam kompleksom vitamina i vodom od brusnice. Na pakiranju piše da ovaj prajmer daje ultra glatku teksturu sa efektom buđenja kože. Koža dobija divan zdrav sjaj. Vidljivo smanjenje pora za ujednačenu površinu kože. Sadrži kompleks vitamina B3, E, provitamin B5 i vodu od brusnice. Može se koristiti sam ili ispod šminke. Dobijete 30 ml proizvoda.

So we have 2 different things when it comes to claims on this primer. This primer is supposed to be moisturizing and to give healthy glow. Then it is also supposed to be pore minimizing. Those two things are really different so I was excited to try it. I think this primer is moisturizing and it definitely gives healthy glow. It has a lot of tiny shimmer, really finely mild and it gives natural glow. It looks beautiful on skin, it is definitely “wake up” effect and I love it. I don’t have a lot of pores on my skin, I have some large ones on my nose and there is where I see is primer “pore minimizing”. This one didn’t fill out my pores completely. It did make them smaller, but it didn’t completely fill them up. So if you have smaller pores than this one might be pore minimizing for you. For me it does fill them up a little bit, but I can still see them if that makes sense.

Imamo dvije različite tvrdnje kada se radi o ovom prajmeru. Ovaj prajmer daje zdravi sjaj koži, hidratantan je i također smanjuje vidljivost pora. Inače su prajmeri koji smanjuju vidljivost pora matirajući, ali ne i ovaj. U ovom prajmeru imate mnogo sitnih šljokica koje daju sjaj koži, nisu pretjerano velike tako da definitivno dobijate prirodni sjaj na koži. Definitvno hidrira kožu i daje joj efekat „buđenja“. Ja nemam velike pore na koži, osim nekoliko velikih na nosu. Što se tiče efekta popunjavanja pora, definitvno vidim razliku, ali nije velika. Imam osjećaj da smanjuje vidljivost pora, ali ih ne popunjava potpuno i ne čini ih da nestanu. Ako imate manje pore onda će ovaj prajmer biti dovoljan da ih popuni, tako da dobijete savršenu kožu. Kod mene pravi razliku u veličini pora, ali ih ne popunjava potpuno bez obzira koliko proizvoda da koristim!

I like the way this one makes my skin look. It makes it really soft, smooth and glowy. Also I feel like it gives such a smooth base for makeup and makeup definitely goes better on top of my skin. Honestly I think that this primer is amazing. I usually don’t see a lot of difference with primer, but this one is good. Even though this one isn’t working for my skin I still think it’s worth trying out. I think that primer itself is really good, unfortunately there is ingredient that doesn’t go well with my skin!

Volim kako ovaj prajmer izgleda na koži. Čini kožu mekom, glatkom i definitivno daje dosta sjaja. Također imam osjećaj da čini teksturu kože dosta glađom tako da šminka na vrhu izgleda puno bolje. Mislim da je ovo stvarno kvalitetan proizvod. Ja inače ne vidim veliku razliku sa prajmerima, ali sa ovim razlika je očigledna. Ja vam preporučujem da ga probate, jer je vrlo dobar prajmer.

Unfortunately I’m not going to be able to use this one in my routine because it does break me out. I’m so mad that that’s the case, but I think I know why. Bourjois healthy mix foundation breaks me out also and it has really similar ingredients as well as cranberry water. So products with cranberry water just don’t work for my skin. Still I recommend this one, I think that it’s really good and I’m sad that I can’t use it. That’s everything from me today. I hope you enjoyed this review. Let me know did you try this one already? Would you be interested to try it? What is you all time favorite primer? Thank you for reading. Have a nice day! xx

Nažalost ja ne mogu koristiti ovaj prajmer u svojoj rutini jer dobijam akne i vrlo sitni osip po licu. Mislim da znam zašto se to događa, Bourjois Healthy mix podloga također izaziva reakciju na mojoj koži, a i ona sadrži slične sastojke kao i vodu od brusnice. Ja i dalje mislim da je ovaj prajmer izuzetno dobar i žao mi je što moja koža tako reaguje na njega. To je sve od mene za danas. Nadam se da vam se svidjela ova recenzija. Da li ste već probali ovaj prajmer? Da li ga želite probati ako već niste? Koji je vaš omiljeni prajmer? Hvala vam na čitanju. Želim vam lijep dan! xx
