Giordani Gold Youthful Radiance Elixir Primer & Long Wear Mineral Foundation Review

For 40 years, Giordani Gold has strived to create beautiful, premium products infused with the world’s most exclusive raw ingredients. The quest for craftsmanship and perfection reflects brand's desire to help us live our life beautifully.

Giordani Gold range includes all sort of cosmetics viz. fragrances, lipcolours, body sprays, eye makeup and creams etc. I've been using many of the products since months and those are really exclusive in terms on quality. 

This time I'm in for two 'face makeup' items which I honestly prefer using on occasions or may be when in mood, but not on daily basis. So after trying and testing these two products for couple of weeks, here is my review of  Giordani Gold Youthful Radiance Elixir Primer and Long Wear Mineral Foundation.
Giordani Gold Youthful Radiance Elixir Primer is a luxurious product from Oriflame for a beautifully luminous, youthful-looking complexion. This silky skin perfecting serum intensively hydrates, perfects and illuminates the skin for a perfectly luminous and youthful-looking complexion.
It comes in a transparent glass bottle in pump dispenser format. I like the gold and black cap to give the packaging a royal look and feel.
The formula is infused with Hyaluronic Acid, Skin Perfector Complex, White Tea extract and the iridescent beauty of rose and gold micro pearls.
Most women prefer using a primer as a base to achieve flawless makeup and this one does a great job covering up imperfections like fine lines, wrinkles and concealing the pores. I personally apply the primer after moisturizer, so that my dry skin can absorb the moisturization before the primer places a layer on top of it. Spread a few drops of the primer on your moisturized face n neck and gently massage into the skin with the fingertips. It's light-weight and non-greasy formula doesn't take time to absorb. When worn on its own, it gives a natural youthfully radiant complexion. I've been using it all alone without makeup for last few days and like the flawless finish it gives. It's suitable for all skin types.
The 30ml bottle is priced at 999/- but a little goes a long way, so this one bottle might last for months depending on usage frequency.
Give your skin a perfect finish with Giordani Gold Long Wear Mineral Foundation. This foundation comes in a tall glass bottle with a pump top to take out the product. The packaging is as classy as others in Giordani range.
This foundation is infused with skin revitalising Italian Volcanic Minerals and offers SPF 15 as an added bonus.
Giordani Gold Long Wear Mineral Foundation comes in four shades - Light Rose, Natural Beige, Light Ivory and Rose Beige. I got myself the Rose Beige one. Looking at the foundation from outside the bottle, I felt it's not a perfect match and is darker for my skin tone. So one of the tested trick to fix the shade is to mix your foundation with a moisturizer. It might bring down the coverage to little lighter, but gets you proper shade that blends with skin tone nicely.
You may apply the foundation with a makeup brush, sponge or even with the fingers. Just start by applying less foundation than you think you need to. You can always add a little more if needed. Just make sure to blend it carefully around the jawline and hairline for a flawless finish. It gives a long-lasting coverage and conceals imperfections for a brightened complexion.
The product is priced at 1299/- for 30ml.

Giordani Gold Essenza Parfum Review

"Perfume is the indispensable complement to the personality of women, 
the finishing touch on a dress," -Christian Dior

The statement above fits well on iconic Giordani Gold Essenza Parfum that's a energizing women fragrance from the range of Oriflame. 

Product Description: Composed around Oriflame’s exclusive Orange Blossom Luxury Essenza note, radiant Giordani Gold Essenza Parfum evokes true luxury and craftsmanship from its exquisite glass bottle, its cap dressed in real gold leaf to its highly concentrated and diffusive fragrance. A premium floral woody parfum that inspires beautiful living.
Ingredients:
ALCOHOL DENAT., PARFUM, AQUA, LIMONENE, PEG-40 HYDROGENATED CASTOR OIL, BUTYLPHENYL METHYLPROPIONAL, HYDROXYCITRONELLAL, LINALOOL, CITRONELLOL, GERANIOL, HEXYL CINNAMAL, BUTYL METHOXYDIBENZOYLMETHANE, CITRAL, ISOEUGENOL, FARNESOL, PHENOXYETHANOL, CI 19140, CI 16035
The fragrance is available in a see-through, double-layered glass bottle that bears a gorgeous gold stopper and top cap with brand logo on its top. The bottle is bit heavy, so depends how comfortable you find to carry it around while travelling.
This bottle looks no less than a 'dazzling object' kept on your vanity table even on a crowded space on the area. Certainly an attention grabber for the keen perfume lovers.
Composition:
Top Note: Bergamot
Middle Note: Orange Blossom and White Flowers
Base Note: Woody

An asthetic fusion of ingredients, Essenza literally turns out to be one of the best fragrance that takes your fancy to next level. You spray it right after taking a shower or before getting dressed, it stays 'true' for many hours when worn on the skin.

The assertive composition of the fragrance with bergamot as head notes brings addictive citrusy energy of the finest degree that lasts for few minutes after application. 

While the heart notes start emerging in a brilliant mix of ultra-feminine orange blosssom and classy white flowers, the wearer is bound to start feeling the warmth of fragrance with time.
The woody base notes makes the composition really distinguishing. I personally love this kind of darker composition that lasts 6-8 hours easily on me without bothering me.
It's depth and intensity suit to be worn on any time of the day at any ocassion, be it under the night sky or the shining sun.
In totality, I feel Essenza is your superbly aromatic companion with great longevity that provides an instant boost of confidence with just a few spritz.

Price: Rs. 3,719 for 50 ml
  
Pro Tip: I recently discovered that oily skin holds the fragrance for longer and so it is recomended to hydrate your skin well to increase the scented trail left by the perfume wearer. Do give it a try.
