What is the Best Face Primer?

When it comes to picking the right face primer for you, it really comes down to your skin type, so first figure out if you have dry, oily, or normal skin. Elizabeth Mott carries both a Mattifying Face Primer and Illuminating Face Primer so that you have a choice depending on your skin type. If your skin tends to be drier, pick up the Illuminating Face Primer. For oily skin, try the Mattifying Face Primer.

Does Makeup Primer Really Work?

The purpose of makeup primer is to help prep your face for makeup so that you have the ideal blank canvas to work with for creating your favorite look while making sure that your makeup stays in place all day. Elizabeth Mott’s Face Primers work to help your skin look their best, either hydrating or preventing shine so that you have a crease-less canvas to work with for creating your ideal look.

Does Face Primer Go on Before or After Foundation?

Face primer is meant to be the first step in your makeup routine, so for the ideal makeup look, apply your primer first, so that your foundation stays perfectly in place without flaws. The Mattifying Face Primer works to minimize pores before foundation and the Illuminating Face Primer is perfect for giving yourself a pre-makeup natural glow.

Is Face Primer Hydrating?
