We all want healthier-looking skin.  Therefore, British, Cult-Brand, Illamasaqua created a couple of primers that will nourish your complexion.  In fact, Illamasqua Primers Hydra Veil and Beyond Veil hydrate and nourish you skin before you apply your makeup. As a result,  they create an ideal makeup base.  And, you can use both primers with or without makeup. First, Hydra Veil will make your skin look flawless and feel super-smooth.  Also, it will leave your skin feeling re-fresh and re-balanced.

Next, Beyond Veil is, in fact, Hydra Veil that goes a step further.  It is a combination of two Illamasqua superstars, Hydra Veil and Beyond Powder.  Hence, Beyond Veil has all the good-for -your-skin ingredients from Hydra Veil, plus it adds the metallic sheen from Beyond Powders.   On the one hand,  I love using Hydra Veil, which is a hydrator,  because my skin is dry.  On the other hand, for me, Beyond Veil is the perfect skin-booster. For one thing, I like wearing it alone for a subtle glow.  For example,it creates a perfect no-makeup-makeup glow..  Also, I  wear it under my foundation to look like I am glowing-from within.

You can find Hydra Veil and Beyond Veil on the Illamasqua Website.  At this time Hydra Veil retails for $36.99, and Beyond Veil retails for $36.99 on the Illamasqua Website, where you save approximately nine dollars.  Therefore, it’s a really good deal.

Moreover, a black spoon sits on top of the white lid.  And, you can slide the spoon off, and on the lid.  I think the design of the jar, lids, and spoon, is amazing for two reasons.  First, you can’t lose the spoon!  Second, the spoon is very hygienic, so that you don’t contaminate the formula.

Illamasqua Primers Hydra Veil vs. Beyond Veil Formulas

Most important, the unusual texture of the formula is what makes the Veils different from all other primers.  The formula has a texture that wiggles and jiggles like jello.  In addition, like jello, the formula scoops, stirs, and you can smoosh it into smashed-up pieces. Then, when you close the jar, the most amazing magic happens. The formula returns to its flattened, smooth jello-like form.  Amazing, that it can level itself back to what it originally is, flat, jello right?

Furthermore, both formulas have multi-active ingredients.

The Beyond Veil Formula is a combination of two iconic Illamasqua products – Hydra Veil and Beyond Powder.  Therefore, Beyond Veil is more than a hydrator, and more than a primer.  In fact, for me, it is the perfect booster for your skin.  One product  gives your skin hydration and glow.

The formula contains the powerful antioxidant, “Gardenia Florida Fruit Extract.”  It also includes “Sodium Hyaluronate ” which is he sodium salt of Hyaluronic Acid.  As a result, it acts as a humectant that draws water to your skin.  Also included, Vitamin C, helps improve the elasticity and brightness of your skin.
