Primers

Primers create a smooth base for makeup, helping it last longer and look more even throughout the day. They blur pores, reduce shine, and allow foundation to sit better on the skin. Whether you want a matte finish, a dewy glow, or help with redness, there’s a primer for that. Primers also act as a barrier between your moisturiser and makeup, helping to prevent clogged pores and breakouts. Some include skincare ingredients that hydrate or soothe.

What does a primer do for your face?

A primer prepares your skin before applying makeup. It smooths the surface, helps reduce the look of pores, and allows foundation to glide on more evenly. Some primers control oil, others add hydration, and some offer a radiant glow.

Can I wear primer without foundation?

Yes, you can wear primer on its own. Many primers improve the look and feel of your skin, even without makeup. For example, a blurring primer can smooth texture and reduce shine.

Should primer go on before or after moisturiser?

Primer should always go on after your moisturiser. First, cleanse your face, apply any serums, then use your moisturiser. Let the moisturiser absorb fully, then apply the primer. This layering gives your skin hydration first, then the primer forms a smooth base for your makeup.
