The makeup artist's secret to long-lasting makeup, primer was
completely foreign to me until recently. Thanks to Miss Glamorazzi, I'd
heard of foundation primer but hadn't gotten any because I just hadn't wanted to
spend the cash. Instead, I'd only been using a $1 (YES $1) eyemake primer
by e.l.f. that I'd picked up at Target. But, during my first trip into
Sephora a while back, I experienced the wonder that is primer.
This particular primer (linked below) is the one that I
purchased and it feels very light on my skin, and is very simple to use.
To apply, I take a makeup sponge a swipe all over my face. Once applied,
allow a minute to absorb into skin, and apply foundation as usual.
While there are several different brands of primers with
multiple formulations. I would recommend a water-based solution. This
will make the primer feel the lightest on your skin compared with other
formulas. But, everyone is different, and most places should let you
test the formulas on your hands and let you pick the one that feels the best to
you.
But the best thing about makeup primers? They actually
work. I instantly noticed a difference in how well my makeup help up once
I began using primer. For anyone looking to expand their collection into
something more "adult" or "quality," I would definitely
recommend investing in a quality primer.
