It shocks me that so few use the product that is mine main tool in the make-up bag. It is also common for many do not even know what is it for!
The wonderful tool I'm talking about is of course a primer (pronounced prajmer)
You could say that a primer is one makeup glue. Usually a transparent or skin-colored cream, which is applied before make-up.
Face primer - Applied to the entire face, after face lotion, before foundation.
Eye primer - Applied around the eyes (I only put up to the brow) after foundation, before eye shadow.
And it's just an eye primer I could never do without!
Top - Eyeshadow without primer.
Bottom - Eyeshadow with primer.
The colors get stronger, as well holding much longer. In addition, the eye shadow becomes much easier to work with!
This is really a big plus if you want a nice make-up that will last as well after The 12-stroke on New Year's Eve ;)
Lumene has good primers, both for the face and for the eyes! I've also heard that Too Faced have good primers, but I have not tested them myself.
I use though gloMinerals face primer, thinks it is super good. Have reviewed it in one previous posts also.
To the eyes I have Lumene's eye primer. Costs around 100 bucks!
Buy, buy, buy!
