The effect of make-up is unfortunately fleeting. Only a few hours after application to make an average Foundation - especially in the current temperatures - clandestinely of: skin shine and spots return, pores and wrinkles are visible again. The reason: the skin absorbs during the day to individual components of the Foundation, such as talc or pigments. At the same time it produces sebum, the makeup particles come literally to slip on. Asked Will makeup artists for their trick for a great complexion, the answer is usually "primer". They were long regarded as a secret of such makeup professionals. But now is a good number of them in the drug store shelves and promises to lay flawless complexion and a make-up that lasts longer. The trick: primer composed mainly of silicone, like a film set on the skin - but without seal. A barrier between the skin and make-up is formed which prevents the Foundation is absorbed too quickly. At the same time the skin is optically smoothed.
The application: - First a light moisturizer as a basis, which should move well - Then the primer sparingly to all the games that are also gotten Foundation later
Consistency: - Relatively low viscosity, thus is absorbed quickly - similar to a moisturizer - into the skin - Very economical
The result: - On the skin prepared with primer can be the makeup spread noticeably better - Matt finish, which acts still not flat or flat - Very pleasant to wear - Slightly bright (! But no shine), yet for a long time matte (almost 6 hours at me) - The most important effect is for me, however, after a few hours: The complexion looks more even and made fresh. Was the evening of my Foundation almost nothing to be seen without a primer, the complexion blotchy and oily, I now simply more "made up" from.
Conclusion: not a panacea, but a nice helper. Easy to apply, keeps well and has a very good natural end result.
