“hello everybody and welcome back to my
channel so today’s video is going to be
a little testing video I am trying out
the difference between two primers one
of them is 85 pounds and the other one
is 5 pounds there’s an 80 pound
difference between these two primers
which i think is crazy I will be doing
more kind of testing videos on my
channel in terms of makeup I’ve recently
done a testing collection foundation
makeup the new one
really really cheap really good I’ll
link that video down below if you want
to go and watch it but I’m going to be
doing kind of more like a specific
product testing videos so today is kind
of focused on this one in terms of is it
80 pounds better than this one sort of
thing so that’s what this video is it’s
going to be a half-and-half kind of
demonstration showing you kind of first
impressions of how they both apply how
my foundation and concealer go on after
it how it looks and mainly a wet test
throughout the day so I’ll be kind of
letting you know throughout the day kind
of a little like vlog style how my
makeup is looking and lasting so just to
kind of introduce you to both of these
products this is the I want this is the
Avant pro perfecting collagen primer to
ship lot so I’m not very good at
pronouncing things but there we go it
says apply to clean dry skin wear alone
or under foundation to create a smooth
even canvas so it’s there to kind of
smooth out your skin this is 85 pounds
this is its full size I’ve got this in
my glossy box for June if you want to go
and watch the video where I unbox this I
will link it down below it was a vlog
that I did and it’s kind of more towards
the end of that vlog but yeah and
basically they sent me this in that
glossy box and I’ve used it for about a
week and I do actually quite like it but
do I think it’s worth it if I found no
not one bit would I pay a tenner furnace
no not one bit I would rather kind of
spend my money on foundations than I
would on a primer because I don’t really
know if it works oh this video is kind
of going to be like a side-by-side
comparison with the both the primers see
which one works see if they’re both just
as good
because often if you’re comparing things
side by side you can see a difference
whereas if I tried this primer all over
my face one day and then I tried this
all over my face the next day I might
not be able to see that difference so
that’s why I’m doing kind of side by
side this other cheaper much cheaper
primer is from revolution it is the
Revolution primer ultra face based
primer and it’s a 24 hour makeup
protection so I really quite like this
one
it’s a pore filling primer but anyways
so rather than me kind of rambling on I
will link both of these down below in
the description if you want to go and
check either of them out so yeah I’ll
link them both down below for you to go
and purchase if you would like but other
than that let’s crack on straight into
the video okay so first of all I am now
barefaced I would like to apologize for
what the heck sorry my laptop is just
saying something to me I’m not entirely
sure but first of all I’m starting off
with my bare face basically I do have
some redness around my face and a little
bit of dry skin at the minute because I
don’t know it’s summer and when summer
hits for some reason at my skin starts
getting a little bit dry but you know
it’s not too bad that’s worse out there
so I’ve got the two primers in front of
me here the 85-pound primer and the
5-pound primer so I’m thinking which
side shall I do which let’s look in the
mirror and decide I think I’m gonna do
the expensive perm at this side and then
the non expensive on this side that’s
what I’m kind of thinking for no reason
at all I’m just randomly picking so I’m
gonna start off with the Avant
primer the expensive one so it says to
take a pea-sized amount onto kind of the
back of your hand and then put that on
your face so to me that’s a pea-sized
amount I’ll hang and I’ve just realized
it should be half the P because it’s
half the face nevermind we’ll just apply
a little bit more I tend to go quite
sparingly with this anyway just because
I don’t want to you know waste it it’s
quite hard to prime half you know
but anyway so I’m just gonna blend that
in it’s really really easily blendable
obviously I’ve used this for you know a
week and I do quite like it in terms of
how quickly it blends in and it doesn’t
feel like a silicon primer like the
other one that I’m gonna be using it
kind of feels I don’t know like a tacky
one so I’m not entirely sure what I’m on
about to be honest with you but it Wow
can you hear the amount of times that
that card just beeped Wow it’s not one
that feels in your pores it’s kind of
one that makes your phrase tackies that
makeup sticks onto it because my face
kind of feels a bit tacky I’m but yeah
this is it with the primer on and now
I’m gonna go and put the 5-pound
revolution up primer onto the other side
of my face I’ve used this a hell of a
lot more in the past so I do know this
one quite well this is more of a
silicone II kind of pore filling primer
it is a good point that because
otherwise I wouldn’t have used it so I’m
gonna pop it just kind of like obviously
half my face but yeah it’s quite
difficult to just get half your face
especially with a primer say instantly I
can feel the difference in terms of the
type of primer that it is it definitely
fills in your pores like you can
literally see your pores being filled in
and it makes your face look a lot
smoother and application on top a lot
smoother and my face does feel on this
side it feels smooth silky soft on this
side it feels tacky I personally do
prefer a tacky at primer because I just
prefer the way that foundation applies
on top of it but first impressions on
both of them this side feels more tacky
it feels like the primer is kind of set
in place whereas on this side it feels a
little bit more greasy a little bit more
oily it does actually feel quite greasy
and I’ve noticed that in the past when
I’ve used this one before but anyway
let’s see how it goes on for a primer
maybe this will not give you so much
oily skin because obviously I’ve got
oily skin and I think that this
Ellucian primer might kind of make my
skin a little bit oilier than the avant
primer but you know still don’t think
it’s worth the money but we’ll we’ll get
to that at the end of the video by the
way I also have a little bit of lip balm
on I have the bye-bye
plumper lip balm and I just put a little
bit of that on because I always do so
I’m going to show you putting my
foundation on and also my concealer and
how they apply on both sides kind of see
what they look like up close and then
I’ll do kind of check-ins throughout the
day seeing how long my makeups lasting
etc so the foundation that I’m gonna be
using today is one that I’ve talked
about quite a lot of my channel it’s the
collection lasting perfection a flawless
weightless coverage foundation it says
it’s 16 hour wear now I did a whole
video on this I will link it down below
in the description if you want to go and
check it out i did a full day wear test
and my first impressions i actually
liked it a lot more now than I did when
I filmed that video it’s actually one of
my favorite foundations that I’ve tried
and it’s only three pound 99 so I would
recommend giving this a go so because
it’s too dark for me it is in the shade
six core vanilla what I’m gonna do is
I’m gonna mix it with some lightening
drops I’ve just remembered I’ve got to
do half and half of my face my
lightening drops are just from a
revolution revolution Pro Foundation and
Mixter lightening drops and I just pop a
little bit of that on there I also find
that when you mix these two together it
kind of makes the foundation more melted
and therefore it goes on your face a lot
nicer I don’t know maybe I’m just making
that a little bit yeah okay so I’m now
gonna pop this around my face starting
on this side
and take that under my chin to blend it
down just so you don’t have that kind of
like harsh line and then I’m gonna take
my beauty sponge it’s a Real Techniques
Beauty sponge it’s got kind of mascara
on it cuz I put it in my bag and yeah
accidentally got on my mascara on this
so it isn’t it’s not dirty don’t worry
or moldy or whatever so I’m now going to
blend that in on this side so I’m going
to be doing the Avant primer side which
is this side and I’m going to be
blending back in with my sponge it’s wet
by the way so I’m just gonna start off
I’m using the mirror in front of me by
the way if you wondering just could have
lightly tapping that in
it’s really we’re just doing kind of
half my face rather than kind of I don’t
know it’s just weird okay blend it up
into my hairline oops I’ve got some on
my headband never mind
gotta blend it into your hairline so it
doesn’t look kind of false really blend
it in over the eye okay that’s looking
nice coverage is nice because primers
can affect the coverage that your
foundation gives it’s not looking too
oily or greasy so far I like it how it
applied yeah you can still see my pores
but yeah it’s looking nice so I’m gonna
do the other side and compare sorry if I
look or pull really weird faces it’s
just kind of hard
so again it’s applied nicely I can’t see
a difference with the sides right now
comparing side by side I can see a
massive difference which I’ll talk about
in a second but in terms of application
of the foundation both are very just the
same because I know that some primers
can actually make applying foundation on
top a lot easier they’re both very
similar okay so I don’t know if I can
get this across and I’m actually shocked
at this because I didn’t expect there to
be kind of too much difference between
the sides what I’m seeing is that on
this side with the Avant primer because
it’s more of kind of like a tacky sticky
primer is actually still showing through
my pores it probably is a primer that’s
there to make sure that your foundation
and everything like that sticks to your
face and stays on throughout the day
whereas on this side it’s a little bit
more greasy the revolution ones mmm the
revolution one is a little bit more
greasy but it’s actually filled in my
pores and therefore you cannot see my
pores on this side you can see my pores
on this side around here especially on
this side you can’t so it kind of makes
your makeup look a little bit kind of
smoother and more flawless so I’ll draw
you in a little bit closer and showing
you what I mean I’m not too sure if you
are gonna kind of understand what I’m on
about but this side you can see my pores
kind of like that a lot more than on
this side it’s really hard to show I do
have two really big pores there but
that’s just always been like that but
yeah on this side you can see the more
so I’m gonna apply some concealer onto
my face blend that in and then I’ll do
the check ins later on so the concealer
that I’m using is actually one I’ve
recently bought never tried it before
it’s the makeup obsession mega conceal
longwear concealer with caffeine very
interesting so what I’m gonna do is I’m
just gonna take these and put it in the
areas of my face that I would like to
highlight so for example under my eyes
this is actually a really nice coverage
and concealer by the way under my eyes
on my nose
and on my chin Aryan so what I do look
very strange right now
uh yeah on my chin forehead and then
blend that in I do this because it adds
more coverage but it also highlights my
face so I kind of like it so I’m just
going to blend this in and then I’ll get
back to you
okay so I’ve now done my concealer I
might be looking a little bit scary to
you but you know that’s life I’m gonna
finish off doing my face in just a
second and then do another check-in but
basically so far my impressions of it
are I’m trying to look at it both sides
look very similar at the minute now I’ve
concealed I would say that both sides
almost look identical those depressions
what am I thinking well the AB on primer
side I do prefer it when I’m applying
the product because it’s more tacky and
that’s the kind of primer that I like it
feels more matte on my skin as well and
it doesn’t feel greasy where is the one
from revolution it does feel a little
bit greasy and although it fills my
pores in and makes my skin look more
flawless at the end of the day the
lasting power is probably not going to
be the best and also it does still feel
greasy now this side does feel a lot
better whereas this side does feel a
little bit oily already so I think so
far that’s my first impressions but
overall this one is still a really good
primer so far obviously I have used it
you know from a few months so I do know
it very well but yet so far not much
difference price-wise because there’s an
80-pound difference I don’t think on my
face there’s an 80-pound difference but
anyway I’m going to do the rest of my
makeup and then I will get back to you
with how my makeups looking after I put
everything on okay so I have now
finished and done my makeup if you are
wondering what palette I used for my
eyeshadow I used this one here which is
from revolution the reloaded passion for
color palette it looks like this I’m
actually gonna do quite a few tutorials
using this palette because it is really
really good it’s got some great shades
in there and yeah did this whole look
using that palette I’m very happy with
it in terms of the primers both sides
are looking pretty similar I would say
that this side still is showing more
pores than this side having done all of
my makeup everything looks a kind of
very very similar this side of my face
does actually look a bit darker than the
side and
by my studio lights are kind of making
that look you know like it does it does
actually look like that in real life as
well so I don’t really understand that
like why would this private make it look
lighter and this prime or not I don’t
really understand that but so far so
good I think the real test today is
going to be kind of a wetter so how long
is my makeup gonna last for on each side
will this make my makeup look better for
a longer period of time than this side
we will have to see it so I will do some
check-ins throughout the day and yeah so
you know hello there I forgot to do it a
little check-in after lunch but
basically I had my lunch I actually had
my lunch at like two o’clock because I
was too busy filming and then I had a
nap and I accidentally slept on this
side so that’s kind of got the results
of this video slightly biased without
the word I had enough on this side so
this so it’s not gonna be bad this is
the this is the aside with the expensive
primer and this is the side with the
normal primer you can see here that’s
not where I like to answer let’s look at
these parts shiny
I’m very shiny personally I think I’m
equally as shiny on both sides Oh God
sorry no makeup no okay I’m equally as
shiny on both sides I don’t think
there’s any difference I’m not gonna lie
to you this hasn’t really stopped to oil
I’m not gonna lie I don’t think it’s
that good okay so this is gonna be the
final check-in because I feel like my
makeup has reached a stage of pure
concern
I haven’t powdered or anything today
because I wanted to see how the primer
would do why the heck is it making my
face go pink hey sometimes my camera
does that like it makes me look really
pink there we go anyways so basically
we’ll just let the camera do what it
wants to do most of my makeup has
actually rubbed off kind of in the
middle I did blow my nose once obviously
like I said I had an app on this side I
actually personally think that the
revolution
primer sides the cheaper side was a
little bit oilier than the side with the
more expensive one but only a little bit
oilier I’m gonna conclude this video
very quickly I don’t really think
there’s too much to discuss because I
haven’t noticed too much difference
between both sides of my face I do
prefer the Avant primer because it feels
nicer when I’m applying it and it feels
like more of my kind of thing it’s tacky
it makes my makeup feel like it’s
sticking on and I like applying
foundation over the top of it it doesn’t
feel greasy but in terms of lasting
power and things like that they’re
pretty much the same my skin was still
really oily towards the end of the day
and my makeup still comes off if I you
know touch my face so it hasn’t really
made you know lasting power anything
magnificent the revolution one is a
little bit greasy I have obviously used
that you know for months and months and
I like the fact that it fills in my
pores and you know you can see your
pores a lot less than the errant one
because it is a pore filling primer and
makes your skin look more flawless but
then it also does make your skin look
and feel more greasy my skin has felt a
lot more greasy this side and it has
been slightly more oily but considering
this side is 5 pounds and this side is
85 pounds and yes I know this does look
worse but it’s only because I had a
matte remember and it’s wiped my makeup
off but considering there’s an 80 pound
difference between them there is not an
80 pound difference in terms of is it
good or not sort of thing I would say
this is only slightly better than this
side in terms of the primers and don’t
go and buy the product don’t waste your
money unless you have money to waste I
like I said I’ll you know going to link
them both down below if you want to go
and have a look if you’ve got any of the
two primers and let me know your
experiences with both but I’m going to
conclude this video by saying that it
isn’t worth the money to go for the more
expensive one find an alternative a
really good primer I would say is one
from ELF
it is the hydrating face primer it’s
like in a blue kind of packaging it’s
really really nice so I would say go for
one of those if you want a good quality
one because I know sometimes you know
you don’t want to go really really
really cheap but yeah conclusion and it
so that is the end of this video thank
you so much for watching this video if
you enjoyed it please give it a thumbs
up and subscribe because I’m going to be
doing some more videos like this in the
future I think over all we’ve gathered
that it isn’t worth the money let’s be
real and you can go for kind of
alternatives although this one may be
slightly better it’s still not worth the
money the extra 80 pounds that you’re
paying for it and but if you’ve got 85
pounds to waste then why not so there we
go give the video a thumbs up subscribe
if you want to see more content on my
channel remember to check the
description box because I will link both
of those primers down below and any
other videos that I’ve kind of mentioned
