REVIEW: Dior Nude Air Foundation

I recently got sent a sample to try the new Dior Nude Air Foundation. I am a die hard YSL Le Teint Touché a Éclat foundation fan and struggle to be lured away from any other foundation but I have to admit Nude Air is a big contender! It is so lightweight to the skin that it feels almost invisible-it stays true to its name. This now has become my new summer foundation I have decided because not only is it so sheer but it has that added bonus of SPF 25. If I learnt anything from my latest skin consultation, no bb cream or foundation should be without sun protection.
Not only do you get a natural finish but it has a matte finish which seems almost powder-like making it perfect for people like myself with oily skin.
What makes this foundation stand out from any other I have tried is the smell. I absolutely LOVE it! This foundation is infused with Cranberry oil. 
My only criticism for this foundation is that Dior have decided to go with a pipettes style applicator which I loathe. Previous experience has shown that towards the end of the bottle gets tricky to get to and I find them rather messy to use. But don't let that stop you from trying Nude Air, very rarely does a new foundation excite me and this did just that!

REVIEW: YSL Forever Light Creator Serum


Streetsavvybeauty blog had moved- click here

The Yves Saint Laurent make up team claim the three main causes of a dull complexion are "surface shadows, colour disorders and lack of transparency", so this Forever Light Creator has been formulated to work on improving the skin’s brightness, luminosity and uniformity. 


I was very keen to trial this new serum from YSL as soon as I heard about it and so I was very intrigued to know if it could live up to all its pre-launch hype and whether it could actually help eliminate and correct some of my skin imperfections.
