Dermaflage Dermal Filler Starter Kit + Giveaway




It's no secret that I'm covered in acne scars. Some of them aren't that bad - tiny pigmentation marks that are easy to cover up - but others go deeper and end up making my skin look uneven and bumpy. No amount of concealer can cover these and it goes without saying that they make me feel exceptionally insecure. On a day to day basis I can deal with them but for more special occasions, I hate them and I've never managed to find a way to cover them up. Up until now (wow, doesn't that sound like a snazzy advert)! The Dermaflage Dermal Filler Starter Kit is a facial scar treatment that has been specially designed to cover up many skin imperfections including scars, wrinkles and cuts.

Dermaflage uses a patented blend of medical grade silicones, cosmetic pigments and tiny coloured rayon fibres which blend together to form a silicone mask that looks like your own skin. In fact, it's pretty scary how natural and real it ends up looking once set. Think of Dermaflage like a revamped, kick-ass concealer. At first, I struggled using this but now, I find it quick and simple to use. It took a bit of getting used to because it's unlike anything I've ever tried before. You pop it on top of your make up using three easy steps: prime, apply and texture and you're good to go for a full day.

The kit comes in six colour varieties: Golden, Fair, Rosy, Bronze, Tan and Dark and you view the different colours here. When you order from JD Harris, the kit comes with satisfaction guaranteed so if you order the wrong version you can simply return it and they'll swap it for you. The kit contains: two tubes of Dermaflage dermal filler in two different skin tones, extended wear primer brush-on, mixing stick, precision application tool, spatula, texture pad and instructions. I however, didn't follow the instructions and instead followed this YouTube video which shows you how incredible the product is.

I was worried that the silicones would react with my skin and cause me to break out however, they haven't done so yet and I doubt that they will. This product, like I've mentioned above, is a bit fiddly so I don't use it every single day - just for those special occasions (like my sister's graduation next Wednesday - eeek). It makes my skin look more even and comes my acne scarring better than any concealer I've ever tried. It is pricey, yes but after suffering with scarring for 5 years, it's definitely worth the price and it's a kit that I'll always have in my collection for those special moments.
