The Benefits Of Using A Primer ft. Smashbox

A good primer is a skin-care must have. Primer acts as a base for your makeup, keeping it firmly in place through all those long days in the office, mid-week date nights and even all the sweat, tears and spilled drinks of a Friday night on the town. The real beauty of a good primer is that it acts like an IRL Facetune, blurring all of those imperfections and fine lines, leaving you looking and feeling absolutely flawless from dawn till dusk. So, where to start? Well, we’ve rounded up the best of the best for every skin type so you don’t have to:

This stuff is the original photoshop in a bottle. It’s clear gel formula blurs out imperfections and creates a clean, flawless base for foundation. It was originally designed to help makeup look better and last longer on set under bright lights, so is perfect for keeping your face in place all night long.
