hey gals..do u know wat a primer is...well its just like you prime a wall before you paint it, you can prime your face before you apply foundation. Primers are a relatively new concept in the makeup industry (they became popular in the last couple years) and you'll notice they've popped up everywhere. They actually work much like a moisturizer under your foundation does: they ease the application of foundation and are meant to create a barrier between foundation and skin.
Use face primers after applying moisturizer, then allow to set or dry before using foundation. Depending on your skin type, primers can be used just on the oily areas of the face such as the T-zone (forehead, nose, chin). Use only a small dab of face primer.
Face primers that have been given high average ratings from consumers at Sephora.com and MakeupAlley.com. Most consumers felt that primers smoothed their skin imperfections, absorbed oil, reduced shine, and helped makeup last all day with little or no touch ups.
