Diamonds ARE a girl’s best friend

Writing for MBB totally has its perks. Sure, all the products I get to sample is definitely one of them, but the best benefit is the people. I’ve met so many amazing women through this gig, and I am pleased to call many of them my friends. From Jen here at MBB to Jami over at Bionic Beauty, I can always count on at least one one of them for a late night laugh or well timed tweet. I follow several beauty bloggers on twitter (Name drop: Bionic Beauty, Purely Cosmetics, Older Girl Beauty, Decorative Diva, to name a few) and I eavesdrop from time to time on their twit-versations. When I saw Robyn from Purely Cosmetics dropping hints to Jami about a new product she was working on it immediatly grabbed my attention. In the interest of bringing the latest and greatest straight to you my darlings, I jumped into the fray and demanded the latest info! Okay, I simply asked nicely and Robyn obliged by sending a sample of her new Diamond Perfect Finish powder right to my mailbox, isn’t she grand?

Ever since I found Make Up For Ever’s HD powder last fall I have been obsessed with its seemingly magical powers. It smooths, it sets and it brings a lovely candlelight glow to your skin. Robyn promised me an equally amazing powder with a smaller price tag, and she didn’t disappoint. Since my first introduction to Purely Cosmetics, I have admired Robyn’s initiative and her commitment to an honest, quality product. She did plenty of research before fine tuning this product and it shows. Ultra smoothing, whisper light, and absolutely no strobing(reflection) with flash photography, I was instantly amazed. It only takes the smallest bit of powder to cover my entire face and it helps to absorb extra oil throughout the day without ever looking cakey or powdery. I’ve been asked to be the artist for two brides next month and this invisible powder is just the thing to give their pictures the perfect finishing touch. Without trying this product for yourself I simply cannot convince you how awesome it is.  It is hands down my favorite finishing powder to date and it feels so deliciously smooth and luxurious.  It sets foundation beautifully and looks equally amazing on bare skin, leaving a happy glowing aura without being shiny or dewy. The patented diamond complex has a photoluminescence that subtly illuminates a blue glow invisible to the naked eye which decreases the appearance of wrinkles. There’s a reason this became an instant PC bestseller. And if my rave reviews aren’t enough to make you want to try this, every full size jar of Diamond Perfect Finish powder contains almost a full carat of diamonds, which I think we can all agree we definitely deserve!

Diamond Perfect Finish powder is available from Purely Cosmetics for $17.50(full size) or $5 (sample size).
