Can We Talk About Seventeen?!

Can someone please tell me why everyone isn't talking about Seventeen cosmetics?!
I saw on their Insta the other day that they had a new Skin Wow range and I immediately knew I wanted to pick up the 3 Way Highlighter, even though I've never tried any of their products before. So I headed to my local Boots and discovered that the entire Seventeen range was on a 3 for 2 offer. I grabbed the highlighter and, because I'm currently on a concealer hype, I also picked up the Stay Time 18 Hour Concealer & it's matching Stay Time 25 Hour Foundation.
First thing is first, the Skin Wow 3 Way Highlighter. This stuff is without a doubt my new highlighting addiction, and that's saying something because I don't normally do liquid highlight! It works SO well as an illuminating, non-drying, primer which doesn't accentuate the pores or any texture on the face but it also absolutely SLAYS as a highlighter on its own. It sits nicely on the skin and, out of all the foundations I have tried it with, it doesn't move the product around. I apply it with a blending sponge and it leaves the most beautiful glow without being too dull and natural or overly blingy. It can also be easily built up to make it more intense. It is just perfect! I definitely recommend picking it up, especially at such a bargain price! Available now at Boots for just £5.99!
The Seventeen Stay Time 25 Hour Foundation is another incredible product and honestly, it's my new favorite foundation! It is full coverage but isn't heavy on the skin at all and it sits so nicely. It blends out well and other products, both liquid and powder, blend out really well on top of it. I was dubious becasue at my local store they only had one shade which was Soft Ivory but after a quick google I found it was the second to lightest shade and decided to take the risk. It actually paid off really well as the color is a great match, however I will probably be sure to pick up the shade Porcelain next time. It makes skin look smooth and it covers any redness, dark circles and blemishes. It is oily or drying, its formula is just right and again it comes at a bargain price. I really can't understand why people aren't raving more about this brand. Available now at Boots for just £6.49!
Again the Stay Time 18 Hour Concealer is another brilliant product. I often find that concealers are too dark for my very fair skin but this concealer in extra fair is the perfect shade for me. It is full coverage and it does unfortunately crease a little so it has to be set, but that is to be expected with a full coverage concealer. It lasts all day with no fading, smudging or drying out and it isn't heavy despite being full coverage. It is another product which I highly recommend picking up. Available now from Boots for just £4.49.
Overall I am definitely impressed by this brand and don't know why I haven't tried out their products before now. I will absolutely be picking up some more bits and pieces and recommend that you all head out and grab some too!
