There has been lots of talk this week about Primers, so I thought I would add a quick guide to (hopefully) make it a bit clearer!

 

Primers are designed to enhance and improve skins look, feel and texture.

They also help to provide a good base to ensure smooth, even foundation and can help make, make-up last longer.

 

Just like moisturisers you can get different Primers for different skin types/concerns.

Here is my rough guide:

 

For a Matte look or to help oily skin try Givenchy Mister Matte. 

For an illuminating glow try Dior Skinflash.

Try Mac Primer or Nars Primer for an extra long lasting base.

Laura Mercier also has a whole range of primers including one for oily skin, a hydrating primer, illuminating and one that all the pros use, Laura Mercier Primer. Which is one of the originals!

 

For my all round fav I love the Guerlain Meteorites Primer.

It's perfect for a fresh glowing skin. It makes a great improvement to the skins texture and smells amazing! The downside is it is quite expensive so make sure it's on your birthday list!
