Primer

Julia sa…
Hey! I really like your blog and I wonder if you could make a post about primer. What it does, how to use it and where? Bought some primer from Loréal before that I have as a base on the eyelid but I have heard and read that you should have them on your face with? Yes it would be nice if you, as I said, could make a post about them :) hugs!

I wrote a post about primer quite recently, but I can publish it again! :)

It shocks me that so few use the product that is mine main tool in the make-up bag. It is also common that many do not even know what it is!

The wonderful tool I'm talking about is of course a primer (pronounced prajmer)

You could say that a primer is a makeup glue. Usually a transparent or skin-colored cream, which is applied before make-up.

The colors get stronger, as well holding much longer. In addition, the eye shadow becomes much easier to work with!

Top - Eyeshadow without primer.
Bottom - Eyeshadow with primer.

Face primer - Applied to the entire face, after face lotion, before foundation.
Eye primer - Applied around the eyes (only up to the eyebrow and on the lower lash line, so that you do not miss anywhere and risk getting spotted eye shadow at the outer edges) after foundation, before eye shadow

Face primer - I use gloMinerals face primer, think it's super good! Have also reviewed it in one previous posts.

Eye primer - To the eyes I have Lumene's eye primer. Costs around 100 bucks at Kicks.

Hug from me!
