[unpaid/sample/affiliate/ad] Studio London is one of those relatively low key brands, but the more I see, the more I like it. Much as I love a bit of luxury make up, I’m also very happy when I find affordable products doing exactly the same thing as products five times the price. Studio London Dew Dream Glow Filter is one of those products. If you don’t like dewy or glowy skin, look away now because this product will give you both, and very nicely too.
I’m wearing it full beam – no mixing with foundation or moisturiser, both of which you can easily do with this product – and it’s a mid-light kind of a day. I think maybe in full sunshine it might be a little much neat but for this kind of a day it’s bringing the kind of light that I feel I need on my skin.
In terms of texture, Dew Dream is fluid which makes it a dream to blend. If I had a blind-fold on, texture wise I would have guessed Dior and I’m not joking. It has that cool and soft hit as soon as it touches your complexion and blending with a brush could not be easier. There are 8 shades – Shade 3 is a perfect match for me – and I hope at some point there will be more. If you’d prefer just a hint of a glow, add it to your day cream or whatever foundation you’re wearing or do the traditional sweep over the high points of the face – it’s a more subtle effect but you’ll still get the low key lightfulness you’re looking for.
I hate to gush but at £4, the Studio London Flaunt Flawless (could do with a name change – I can hardly summon the effort to go to Tesco, never mind flaunt anything) Liquid Blush is just a dream and even more of a dream at £4 a tube. I’m wearing It’s Hot, a pinky peachy skin livener that you can adjust to fit your blush comfort level. Start with a tiny dot on a brush or directly onto the skin and blend – if you need more, add more. If you need less, blend and blend some more. It’s the bargain of the summer. Above, from bottom to top, the shades are: It’s Hot, It’s Giving, It’s Over and It’s Mine. Dew Dream is HERE and Flaunt Flawless is HERE.
