Introducing…My Top 3 Foundation Primers!!

It is extremely important for you to always use a foundation Primer under your foundation. Foundation will look smoother, and also last longer on your face. It will also help with creasing and to smoothen any fine lines. Simply use a little bit over your moisturizer, wait a minute, and apply your foundation. Here are my Favorite Primers. Checkout the one I chose for your skin type:

Oily Skin-  Skinn Orchid Gel Mattefying Primer

This is great for Oily Skin or for someone who loves for their skin to be more matte. Even though its purple, it goes on clear!

Combination Skin- Smashbox Photo Finish Primer

I love the silky feel of this primer! It is great for combination skin types because it reduces shine and helps foundation look amazing  

Dry/Aging/Sensitive-  Clarins Instant Smooth Perfecting Touch

This product is great for dry skin types! Its creamy formula moisturizes the skin, and will even keep your makeup out of your fine lines and pores. Keeps your makeup in place as well!

To achieve Rihanna’s look, apply  concealer to your eyelids and then apply a silvery green eyeshadow by dabbing it onto your eyelids and under your eyes. Apply a neutral eyeshadow on your browbone, and blend a neutral brown eyeshadow into your crease.  Apply eyeliner on the inner rim of your eyes, and finish the look off with nice sparse false eyelashes.
