Makeup primer is a preparatory product that is applied after skincare to create an ideal canvas for makeup application. It is used to smooth the skin, fill in lines and wrinkles, and create a less porous surface for makeup. Primers are clear and slippery, almost like a gel, and are used underneath eyeshadow, foundation, tinted moisturizer, and mascara to create a flawless makeup look. The benefits of using a primer include:
-
Smooth application: Primer creates a smooth surface for makeup application, making it easier to apply and blend makeup.
-
Long-lasting makeup: Primer helps makeup last longer by creating a barrier between the skin and makeup, preventing it from being absorbed into the skin.
-
Even skin tone: Primer can help even out skin tone and texture, making it easier to apply foundation and other makeup products.
-
Oil control: Some primers are designed to manage oily skin and prevent excessive shine.
Overall, while primer is not necessary for everyone, it can be a helpful addition to a makeup routine for those looking to create a flawless, long-lasting makeup look.
