I don’t usually Shop at Primark, as even though I think that they have some fantastic products at a really affordable price, for some reason most of their Stores always seem to make me feel really anxious. Luckily though, when I was passing by my local Store a couple of weeks ago, it looked pretty dead so I decided to pop in and have a little wander around. Well after browsing their Health & Beauty Department for quite a while, I eventually stumbled upon their Primark X Alex Steinherr Counter, and after checking everything out, I eventually picked up a Plump & Glow Facial In A Stick, a Packet of the Pore Balance Blemish Rescue Stickers, and a Bottle of the Sleep Spa Every Night Eye Mask, and I thought that I would tell you what I thought of them.
Here’s what Primark say about all three amazing products.

It’s scent.
I wasn’t really a massive fan of it’s scent, as even though it contained Glucose, Glyceryl Stearate, Maltose, Cactus Flower Extract, Sodium Chloride, Sweet Almond Oil, Ethylhexylglycerin, Water, Carnauba Wax, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Candelilla Wax, Sodium PCA, Sodium Hyaluronate, Glycerin, Trehalose, Pentylene Glycol, Polymethyl Methacrylate, Fructose, Sunflower Seed Oil, Citric Acid, Sodium Lactate, Sodium Hydroxide, Urea, Potassium Sorbate, Allantoin, Phenoxyethanol, PEG-7 Glyceryl Cocoate, and Dragon Fruit Extract, I thought that it had a very strange deep and musky yet ever so slightly chemical Plastic scent to it that kind of reminded me of the scent of some old Play-Doh.
What it did when I used it.
I really liked what this did when I used it, as once I had slightly dampened my Face and had started to massage it into my Skin, it turned from a very thick and waxy yet ever so slightly balmy stick of Wax into a thick and creamy yet ever so slightly balmy Cleansing Balm that spread really easily across my Skin.
It’s results.
I really liked it’s results, as not only did this leave my Skin feeling incredibly silky soft, smooth, cleansed, plump, bouncy and intensely hydrated, but it also left it looking extremely glowing and radiant for at least 12 hours after I had used it.
It’s packaging.
I really liked it’s packaging, as this came in a short cylindrical Plastic twist up Tube with a clickable Lid that looked beautiful sat on my Beauty Shelves.

Their scent.
I really liked their scent, as even though they containedWater, Acrylates Copolymer, Salicylic Acid, Tea Tree Leaf Oil, Polysorbate80, Purslane Extract, Butylene Glycol, and Phenoxyethanol, I thought that they had a very subtile fresh and medicinal yet ever so slightly grassy Tea Tree scent to them that kind of reminded me of the scent you smell whenever you enter a Room after someone has just used some Tea Tree Oil.
What they did when I used them.
I really liked what these did when I used them, as once I had finally managed to peel one of them off of their Cardboard Backing and had placed it over one of my Spots, it securely stuck itself to my Face so that I could walk around without worrying that it was going to fall off. I also really liked that once I had stuck it on my Face that it pretty much just merged into my Skin, as after about five minutes I totally forgot that I was wearing one.
Their results.
I absolutely loved their results, as not only did these leave the area around my Blemish feeling incredibly silky soft, smooth and intensely hydrated, but they also dramatically minimised the Blemish, calmed down any redness, and in some cases totally got rid of the Blemish all together.
Their packaging.
I really liked their packaging, as each slide of 11 Stickers came individually wrapped inside little Foil Packets inside of a large Plastic Pouch that kept them really fresh until I was ready to use one of them.

It’s scent.
I really liked it’s scent, as even though it contained Darutoside, Disodium EDTA, Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer, Ethylhexylglycerin, Matricaria Flower Extract, Silk Tree Bark Extract, Water, Sodium Hyaluronate, Glycerin, Propanediol, Dimethicone, Sodium Benzoate, Sodium Hydroxide, Sodium Metabisulfite, Phenoxyethanol, and Fireweed Flower/Leaf/Stem Extract, I thought that it had a delicious sweet and creamy yet ever so slightly synthetic White Chocolate scent to it that kind of reminded me of a massive block of Supermarket White Chocolate.
It’s consistency.
I really liked it’s consistency, as even though it was called an Eye Mask, I thought that it felt incredibly thin and creamy yet ever so slightly balmy, and was more like an incredibly thin and creamy yet ever so slightly balmy Eye Cream rather than a thick and heavy yet ever so slightly creamy Eye Mask.
What it did when I used it.
I really liked what this did when I used it, as once I had started to massage a little bit of it into my Under Eyes, it turned from an incredibly thin and creamy yet ever so slightly balmy Eye Cream into a thin and watery yet ever so slightly creamy Eye Serum that instantly sank into my Skin.
It’s results.
I absolutely loved it’s results, as not only did this leave my Under Eyes feeling incredibly silky soft, smooth, bouncy, less puffy and intensely hydrated, but it also left them looking extremely glowing, radiant and much healthier for hours after I had used it.
It’s packaging.
I really liked it’s packaging, as this came in a short cylindrical Plastic Bottle with a Pump Lid that looked beautiful sat on my Beauty Shelves.
My overall thoughts.
Overall I would have to rate the Primark X Alex Steinherr Plump & Glow Facial In A Stick an eight out of ten, the Primark X Alex Steinherr Pore Balance Blemish Rescue Stickers a nine out of ten, and the Primark X Alex Steinherr Sleep Spa Every Night Eye Mask an eight point five out of ten. I really liked the Primark X Alex Steinherr Plump & Glow Facial In A Stick, as I absolutely loved what it did when I used it, it’s results, and it’s packaging, but I just wasn’t a massive fan of it’s very strange deep and musky yet ever so slightly chemical Plastic scent. I also thought that it was quite a strange product as I could never figure out whether it was meant to be a Cleansing Stick or a Mask Stick. I really liked the Primark X Alex Steinherr Pore Balance Blemish Rescue Stickers, as I absolutely loved their deep and medicinal yet ever so slightly grassy Tea Tree scent, what they did when I used them, their results, and their packaging, but I just wish that they had been a little bit easier to remove from their Cardboard Backing. I really liked the Primark X Alex Steinherr Sleep Spa Every Night Eye Mask, as I absolutely loved it’s delicious sweet and creamy yet ever so slightly synthetic White Chocolate scent, it’s consistency, what it did when I used it, it’s results, and it’s packaging, but I just didn’t get the point of it, as to me an Eye Cream is something that you use in the morning to make you look less tired, not at night before you go to Bed.
