Review: Manhattan Make Up Base

Okay, my first review. So I'm going to review the Manhattan Make Up Base. I think it's pretty much affordable compared to all other bases out there. Mine was about 7€, a bit less and there's 20ml in there. Not much but if you think about how little you use for one apply, it's enough for a couple of months.

My product is a bit used since I have it for about three months now. Tho I still have like 3/4 of it, yay! It smells really fresh, something like hmm. I actually can't say. It's much more fresh that any citrus smell is. Very pleasant. Usually, one dab of the product is enough for the full face. After applied, the face looks fresh and young. That's because of the pearly finish it has (it's not really noticeable). Really lovely, but you shouldn't care about that if you're going to use it as a base. It doesn't leave a greasy film on the skin, and it absorbs really quickly. It doesn't dry your skin out, but if you have oily skin I'd suggest using a bit less product that you'd do normally.

(I know it looks kinda funny. Here I've put on lots of it, so you can see how it looks) With this product, the powder stays on so much longer. I think I was melting one day at the work because it was so hot outside and my makeup stayed intact! I have nothing bad to say about this product since this is the first makeup base I've ever tried. I just can't explain how enthusiastic I am about this makeup base! But I don't use it as an eyeshadow primer, I don't think it would be good to be used as that.
