The latest Smashbox launch has been revealed, and it’s the Smashbox Photo Finish Intensify 24 Hour Shadow Primer.
It feels kinda funny writing about Smashbox, since they announced this week that they’re pulling out of the UK completely, so while we won’t be able to get this in the UK, it’ll be available in other countries you can purchase Smashbox.
Smashbox Photo Finish Intensify 24 Hour Shadow Primer
The Smashbox Photo Finish Intensify 24 Hour Primer has a clear formulation, and when applied, it works to intensify your eyeshadows color, as well as locking your shadow in place for up to 24 hours, whilst also strengthening the skin.
Priced at $26 for 0.34 oz of product, within a squeezy plastic metallic effect tube. This new eyeshadow primer claims to blend effortlessly, and helps to keep eyeshadow transfer-resistant, fade-proof, crease-proof and smudge-proof – all-in-one.
The Smashbox Photo Finish Intensify Shadow Primer also claims to make eyeshadow sweat-resistant and smudge-resistant, whilst creating the perfect canvas, by smooth the skin, and strengthening it against damage from environmental aggressors like pollution and blue light.
Key Ingredients
- A Silkscreen Complex – Blend of Antioxidants Including Vitamin E: Formula smooths and strengthens skin
- Patch Polymers: Flexible and breathable Patch Polymers help improve adhesion power
Smashbox are promoting their Smashbox Photo Finish Intensify 24 Hour Shadow Primer with the above photo, showing a model wearing an eyeshadow look with and without the primer. You can clearly see the color payoff isn’t as strong in the ‘without’ photo, and the ‘with’ photo looks so much more pigmented, and longer lasting.
It looks like the Smashbox Photo Finish Intensify 24 Hour Shadow Primer is replacing their old Smashbox Photo Finish 24Hr Eyeshadow Primer, and this new formula features more skincare ingredients, and it’s available right now.
