Confessions of a Late Bloomer: Skin Primers and their Importance

7:56 AM




It was only recently that I got hooked on cosmetics. Up until two months ago, I only use two things in my make up bag: my foundation and lipstick. I got hooked on strobing that I started hoarding highlighters, cheek tints, etc. Then I bought a face primer (Benefit's That Gal, Php 1600).

Truth be told, I only wanted it because of its packaging. It was only recently that I discovered the benefits of a face primer.






Face primer is a crucial part of every skin regimen. Sure, it helps makeup stay longer as it surfaces the skin and allowing it to stay put for a longer period it time. However, a face primer also helps in protecting your skin from the products that you put on your face. Vogue UK even compares face primers to lingeries in a sense that it smoothens, flatters, conceals and holds.

That Gal truly helped me achieve these. Applying it before I put on foundation makes my skin look smoother and more radiant. It has this distinct smell though, which I hate. And its texture looks like caladryl. Still, it's a great product which is very easy to apply.
