Primer actually serves as the base for all the makeup you apply. The product ensures that your makeup lasts longer and, moreover, makes your skin smoother, so the makeup sits more beautifully.
Tip 1. Always use primer before applying your makeup.
You apply a primer after applying a cream, and it serves as the base for your makeup. The primer evens out your skin, reduces fine lines and wrinkles, and ensures that your makeup lasts longer. There are also special primers for eye makeup!
Tip 2. Always use a cream, foundation, or primer with SPF.
To keep your skin healthy for as long as possible, it is important to wear sun protection. Not only in the summer, but also in the winter. Despite the sun being less intense then, your skin can still be damaged.
Tip 3. Apply a lip primer to fill in the vertical lip lines.
As you get older, vertical lines in your lips will become more visible; fill them in with lip primer before applying lipstick. This makes the lines less visible and, moreover, the lipstick lasts longer.
Tip 4. Also use an eyeshadow primer for eyeliner.
Eyeshadow primer ensures that eyeshadow lasts longer, but eyeliner or eye pencil will also stay beautiful all day with a layer of eyeshadow primer.
Tip 5. Primer; less is more.
Primer serves as the base for your foundation, concealer, and all other makeup you apply. Do not use too much, or your makeup will not look better. Moreover, your makeup will really not fade less quickly with a layer of primer that is too thick.
Tip 6. Wait a moment after applying primer before applying foundation.
If you give the primer about 5 minutes to sink in, the result will be much more beautiful. Otherwise, your makeup will fade faster and thus disappear from your face.
Tip 7. Use a color-correcting primer.
If you have red spots on your face, for example, a green primer is suitable; it camouflages redness.
