too faced: hangover replenishing face primer (review)

It was several months back that the Back to School Beauty Bundle was posted here on the creation of beauty is art. The mini backpack included all sorts of makeup and skin care items...and even a mini Ariana Grande perfume! Over the last little while, these beauty products have been put to the test. That means it is time to start sharing some reviews. This one is dedicated to the Hangover Replenishing Face Primer from Too Faced. This is a brand that I am very familiar with. I have tried all sorts of products from Too Faced over the years and tend to like their cute themes and colours. That being said, this face primer was new to me. Find out how it performs and if a full-sized version will be added to my Sephora cart in the future.

The version of the Hangover Replenishing Face Primer in the beauty set has 20 mL of product and the full-sized version has 40 mL, so there was a good amount of product included in the sample. The down side is that according to the Sephora website, it costs $57 CDN for the full-sized version of the primer. So...what is the product actually supposed to do? It is described as a "replenishing face primer that hydrates, smooths, and brightens for a dewy, healthy-looking complexion." This is one of the rare times when all of the product claims seem to be met. At least in my experience with the product. This liquid primer goes on clear and instantly makes my skin feel more hydrated. After about thirty seconds or so, it starts to have a tackier finish, which is ideal for applying foundation. I really love the Hangover Replenishing Face Primer. It works well with my dry skin, makes makeup application smoother, and the product even smells good. It really checked off all the boxes for me. I have a few Sephora gift cards in my wallet (thanks to generous Christmas gifts from loved ones) and I want to use them to purchase a full-sized version of this primer. Though the price is really high...this is ideal for my skin type. Until I can find something that works as well and is more affordable, this is something that I would like to splurge on from time to time. It really wowed! 

Have you tried the Hangover Replenishing Face Primer from Too Faced? What primer do you like to use?

  3. Sounds like a great product, Shannon, although I do think its price tag is rather steep! xxx

  4. This review of the Too Faced Hangover Replenishing Face Primer is fantastic! It’s great to hear that the product lives up to its claims, especially for those with dry skin. The hydration and smoothness it provides, along with the pleasant scent, seem like real bonuses. I can totally relate to the dilemma of splurging on high-priced beauty products when they work so well for your skin!

    I haven't tried this primer yet, but it sounds like a worthy addition to my makeup routine. As for primers, I've had good luck with ones that have a hydrating formula too, especially during the colder months. Do you have any other favorite products from Too Faced that you recommend? Your insights are always helpful!

    1. It is so hard to spend that extra money on certain products, but sometimes, what works is a little pricier. It really depends on your skin and specific needs. Since I have dry skin, it is really nice to have a primer that works well to address that. As for other Too Faced products I would recommend, there are some fabulous cheek and eye products. Their eyeshadows can be really fun and easy to use, but a lot of their releases are limited edition.
