Start with Foundation Primer
A foundation primer prepares the skin for any type of makeup application and is applied after moisturizer. Silicone based primer is an ultra-lightweight sheer liquid or crème that glides over the skin, leaving a smooth, flawless look and feel. It visually helps “fill in” fine lines and large pores temporarily, and prepares the skin for foundation. Consider it “insurance” for longer lasting, smooth, professional looking makeup.
There are cosmetic companies who put “neutralizing colors” into their primer products which helps correct some color imperfections of the skin as well as goodies, such as Hyaluronic Acid, and Peptide Complexes and other state-of-the-art ingredients.

- Apply on one-half of your face and wait for two minutes for evaporation to take place, and then apply your foundation.
- You will be amazed at the difference between the two sides of your face. Try it on your hands and decollete too!
Prime Advice
“Primers have been used in the film industry for years. They are the perfect preparation for camera close-ups because of the silicone based material. They also extend the wear of the foundation and prevent color fading. If you are wearing something low cut, it is just as important to put primer on the chest area. This skin needs as much protection as your face and is often ignored. No wonder the neck and chest areas often age way beyond the face. Give your neck, hands and chest tender loving care!
