Thin Lizzy 6 in 1 Professional Powder Set Review

This product didn't really work for me, it only made my face look shiny and glittery. It doesn't give me the coverage I was looking for, and I ended up just putting on too many layers until I looked a little 'cake face'. It is very light so may suit someone with very fair skin. would not recommend

Thin Lizzie has been a steady beauty essential in my beauty routine for years now. I love dusting this bronzer over my bb cream daily and foundation at night, it gives my skin a healthy summer glow and a bit of colour in winter without sun damage.

I was introduced to the wonders of thin Lizzy from my Aunty who works at a pharmacy, so I got the combo set as a gift, in dark. I was at first not sure how to use it because the ads say you can use it "as an all over powder" but I definitely wouldn't do that. However, I'm surprised at the bad reviews because it actually worked amazingly on me as a contouring powder on my cheeks.

Although it seems small, it lasts for a really long time! I used my own brush as their brush wasn't my ideal brush (it was pretty terrible) and I had no problems with it at all.

It is nicely pigmented and goes on softly so that you can build it up yourself. You won't find the issue of having too much on the brush at first go because it doesn't really happen.

I would definitely rebuy this, I think that it definitely works for me!

I was given one of these in my early teens, oh those were the days! Sun in and thin lizzie!!! It is far to sparkly for me, and let's face it, unless you have a very specific skin tone, you'll end up looking cakey and orange. It's very easy to be heavy handed with it, which you generally can't come back from ;)

I wouldn't use this on my face apart from maybe a little bit as a highlighter. The "illuminating" particles are too big and make you sparkle instead of glow.

On the body it is okay as people don't tend to look at your body so closely. Would be good on your legs to give you a bit of a tanned look as well as covering bruises, veins, etc.

This is an awesome product and I feel this is given to girls just starting out with make up. It's a 6 n 1 so it does everything and takes up little to no space in your handbag. Is an absolute gem but I feel like once you've used this you start getting more into make up and start upgrading to the high end brands and start collecting the products that you'd use for thin Lizzy. In English, thin Lizzy acts as a contour, lip colour and eye shadow. Over time u don't use thin Lizzy as a contour coz you'd upgrade to the ABH powder contour kit. Like that. It's the beginners prod to make up.

As an ex staff member of the Thin Lizzy franchise I can tell you that unlike the TV adverts this product is definitely NOT for everyone. While it can look amazing on a small few, I would advise to treat with caution. My greatest success with this product has merely been to use it in very small amounts for contour to accentuate and highlight the cheekbones, and always well blended with other more sophisticated brands of makeup. Experience with makeup artistry and techniques is key for making this product look it's best. It's RRP is obviously inflated for effect and I can assure there are much better items on the market for less then half the cost.

Personally i do not like this product as when i use a tiny bit i still look caked faced. Also it doesn't stay on very well. I used to use this when i didn't know much about make-up but now that time has passed and i have found a lot better solutions for me and my skin.

I barely see the product on my face nor can I notice a difference before or after I put it on, I can see it easily on my brush but not on my face, I have quite fair skin and am kind of mad that I spent my money on this as it didn't work for me.

Yip it works as a bronzer and it does an acceptable job as long as you use a light hand. I have used it as a contour and blusher too - that is how I most often use it. It isn't 'sparkly' like some bronzers can be which I like. I don't like it on my lips though - a powder on lips is a weird concept for me - even mixed with gloss. Eye shadow? Sure I guess but I would much rather use something else. So all in all i think it is ok but there are better individual products on the market.
