This base is not only suitable for use on the delicate eye area, but the rest of the face too. It is ultra pigmented and a little goes a long way. Simply sweep on the eyelid as an eyeshadow primer, under the eye as a primer before concealer, or colour match to apply as a concealer itself. It also doubles as a foundation, though you can loosen the texture with a moisturiser to apply as a lightweight tinted moisturiser. Alternatively, apply on specific areas of the face as a contour or highlighter. Available in 12 shades, including a clear option, all of which come in either a 15ml or 30ml tube. BUY NOW FOR £10 The Rumour Base is not only super affordable, but when you consider how many products it is in one it makes for an even more cost effective beauty purchase. P. Louise's Rumour Base initially functioned as an eye primer to prevent creases under the eye after layering concealer or foundation, as well as an eyeshadow primer. However, it can be used in numerous other ways. The P. Louise Rumour Base is available in 12 shades, including a clear option to blend seamlessly into the skin. Considering it is a gentle product to use on the eye area and the fact it's available in numerous shades means you can also apply all over the face as a primer or foundation too. Apply the clear option on the eyes, as well as full face for a primer, alternatively find the perfect skin tone match to wear under the eyes or buffed all over the skin like a full-coverage foundation for a flawless complexion. If you prefer a tinted moisturiser, simply blend with a moisturiser and buff into the skin to loosen the consistency. While it can be used as a skin base, the Rumour Base can also be relied on as a contour, bronzer and highlighter simply by blending a slightly brighter or deeper shade along the highpoints of the face. The beauty of the Rumour Base is it is ultra-pigmented for full coverage, though it can be sheered down with a moisturiser if you prefer a lightweight texture and second-skin finish. The cream formula is also long wearing so you can be sure your make-up will stay in place for hours of wear without creasing or catching in the pores. The Rumour Base comes in two sizes, a miniature 15ml and 30ml version, so you can take it on the go. With over 1,200 reviews it's safe to say this versatile product is a hit with shoppers. More Trending One customer, Aleksandra, shared: 'Perfect base, doesn't crease. I am absolutely in love with it.' A second shopper, named Mackenzie, added: 'This is THE BEST eyeshadow primer I have ever used. I am never going to use another primer ever again. It sits so smoothly and it's never drying. 10000/10. I love it.' While another gushed: 'As a make-up artist, your brand is my favorite to use! I haven't found another that compares!'

Gardai praised for reuniting tourist with lost phone containing pics of late grandad
Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info A member of the Garda has been hailed for aiding a tourist who misplaced her phone, filled with cherished photos of her late grandad, just as she was boarding a flight back to Poland. Aleksandra had been holidaying in Ireland and was on her way home to Poland when she accidentally left her phone at Dublin Airport's boarding gate. The flight had already taken off from Dublin when Aleksandra realised her phone was missing. Another passenger found the phone and managed to send a text to Aleksandra's fiancé, saying she would hand it over to security at Dublin Airport. However, Aleksandra didn't know where exactly the woman had handed it in, and the phone's battery died before she could find out, reports the Irish Mirror. Aleksandra's grandfather, a significant figure in her life, had recently passed away. Her phone held many sentimental photographs, voice notes and videos of him which seemed lost as they were not backed up. Desperate to retrieve these precious mementos, Aleksandra flew back to Ireland in an attempt to locate the phone. Upon landing back in Dublin, Aleksandra first checked with airport staff, but unfortunately, the phone couldn't be located. In a final effort, she approached officers at the Garda Station near Terminal 1 around 4am on Tuesday morning. Garda Grace Roddy, who was on overnight duty at the public desk, heard about Aleksandra's plight and was determined to help. Going "above and beyond to assist" Garda Roddy scoured the airport but initially couldn't find the phone. Refusing to give up, she returned to the gate Aleksandra had departed from days earlier and there, hidden away in a drawer at one of the airline's desks, she found the phone. The phone, filled with cherished photographs, videos, and audio clips, was returned to Aleksandra on what serendipitously turned out to be her 30th birthday. An Garda Siochana shared the touching tale on their Facebook page, including an email from Aleksandra expressing gratitude to Garda Roddy for her assistance. "Ms. Garda Grace Roddy demonstrated genuine empathy, took the time to listen and made every effort to help me get my phone back - even though she was not obliged to do so," Aleksandra wrote. "Her professionalism and willingness to act made things happen. She found my phone which I truly appreciate. In times when such personal commitment is rare, Ms. Garda Grace Roddy's actions deserve to be recognised." The story prompted a massive reaction online, with social media users lavishing praise on Garda Roddy for aiding the Polish national. One person said: "That's what makes the Irish Police different from all other Police forces anywhere." Another added: "What a wonderful happy story. That's what you could look forward to telling all your family and friends about the real good decent people of Ireland and what a very kind Gardai to go to such lengths. Well done. Total Respect." While a third said: "What a fabulous young lady, Garda Grace Roddy is, such empathy, An Garda Siochana are very lucky to have her as are the general public. It is great that Aleksandra contacted the station to show her gratitude. human nature is sometimes that we tell more of the negative side rather than the good news."
