How to use a face primer?

A good-quality primer only needs to be used sparingly. Using too much product on the skin can often affect the durability of other make-up products.

This is what is known as a balanced skin type and is the ideal complexion to apply make-up for a natural and healthy-looking base. The primer should be applied to clean skin before the application of color cosmetics. It should be massaged into the skin either using your fingers, a Blue Master Foundation Brush Large, or a اسفنجة المكياج الزاوية. Primers should be applied in the necessary areas only and do not need to be used over the entire face if it is not needed. It is advisable to allow primers a minute or two to be absorbed into the skin before applying make-up; this also allows some time to check whether the skin needs more hydration or mattifying, depending on the skin type.

How does a primer (e.g., Digital Complexion Primers) work?

Primers are designed to correct specific skin types, i.e., dry, oily, or textured. Ingredients are specifically selected to help achieve a balanced skin.

It also contains plant extracts which in combination help to soothe potential irritations, which can then improve the surface texture for a smoother application of foundation. With oily skin types, there are a few ways in which primers can help combat shine on the skin's surface and prevent oils (sebum) from affecting the foundation base. Some primers are silicone-based, in this case, which prevents the oils from passing through to the foundation. In the برايمر ديجيتال للبشرة الدهنية, innovative special elastomer powder particles help to absorb excess sebum and results in a balanced skin type that has a mattifying impression on the complexion.
