Don’t Forget To Use Primer On Your Eyelids & Skin

Ever wonder if you need to use makeup primer?

Everyone’s answer should be: “Yes, I need primer.”

Why?

  1. By applying primer, your makeup will last longer.
  2. By applying primer, your uneven skintone may be corrected.
  3. By applying primer, redness may be corrected as a green coloured primer can hide the redness in skin.

Confession: I have oily eyelids. Without eyeshadow primer, my eye makeup is toast!

There are so many primers on the market. My favourite is:

Face: Smashbox Photofinish Foundation Primer

Your face feels so good after a thin layer of primer. I have even tried just putting primer on my face without additional foundation and/or product. You get a more polished look. Primer can be your best friend particularly when it comes to hot & humid conditions (i.e. the upcoming summer season).

Eyes: Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion

Thank goodness for this little tube of miracle! 🙂 Without this eyeshadow primer, I would never be able to wear eye makeup (eyeshadow and eyeliner included). My eyelids are so oily!!!

Food For Thought: Do you need to consider including a primer in your daily skin routine to enhance the adherence of cosmetic products?
