ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT PRIMERS

PRIMERS ARE PRESUMABLY FAMILIAR TO YOU.
These mysterious liquid beauty tubes promise immaculate makeup and skin that looks like it was filtered through an Instagram filter in real life, but what exactly is a primer, and do you need it?

Since their introduction into the realm of beauty over a decade ago, these makeup mainstays have caused a lot of uncertainty. So, let’s put an end to this ever-lasting confusion and give you all the information you need to pick the best natural primer for your skin, one that’s free of unknown substances, and apply it like an expert.

WHAT IS MAKEUP PRIMER?
Primers are nothing but a Photoshop tool in the world of cosmetics. They’re applied underneath eyeshadow, foundation, tinted moisturizer, and mascara to provide an even and smooth effect that improves makeup coverage to help it last longer, all while addressing oily or dry skin conditions. Silicone-based primers, for example, can irritate your skin due to the abrasive chemicals. To guarantee you’re putting the greatest things on your skin, choose Neyah’s professional range of tri-color primers.

Almost the majority of them conceal big pores, smooth rough texture, and even out discoloration. They even help with fine wrinkles and sun-induced hyperpigmentation. It all sounds quite amazing.

Still unsure if you require one? A primer could be the missing piece in your makeup process if you have a little extra shine in your t-zone or if your makeup always looks a little untidy towards the end of the day.

WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF MAKEUP PRIMER?
Primers work by adding another layer between your skin and your makeup. It hydrates the skin, evens up the skin tone, and prolongs the wear of makeup. It also mitigates the appearance of large pores, controls oiliness, and certain primers can even give your skin a glow like Neyah’s basic primer range.

Try applying your regular foundation without any makeup primer as a test. Remove it and reapply with a primer this time. You’ll notice the change right away. You’ll notice that, in addition to giving your skin a more youthful appearance, applying makeup primer before foundation allows the foundation to spread and blend more effortlessly. It also gives your foundation a dewy, sheer, and natural appearance.

Using a primer under your foundation, whether it’s in cream or liquid form, will help you achieve a more natural look.

Many individuals avoid applying a primer, but adding it to your daily makeup process for a minute or two can make a tremendous impact.

WHAT SHOULD YOU LOOK FOR IN A MAKEUP PRIMER?
Your makeup primer should be chosen based on your skin type and the environment in which you’ll be wearing it.

If you have oily skin, go for a mattifying primer. If you have a problem with excess oil and shine, use your primer to combat it. A superb mattifying primer that will limit your skin’s oil production is your best chance for this. Pore-minimizing products usually assist in reducing shine as well.

For delicate skin, choose a basic primer. It’s a good idea to use primers with a limited ingredient list if you’ve discovered that your skin is quite sensitive to the products you use. It’s best to pick oil-free, fragrance-free, paraben-free, and other sensitive skin primers. The fewer ingredients in your facial products, the less likely you are to have a bad response.

If you have considerable dry skin, use a moisturizing makeup primer. If your skin screams for lotion after a shower, you’ll want to invest in a dry skin makeup primer. A good, nourishing primer may replace your lotion, allowing you to moisturize and ready your skin for makeup in one step. Look for primers that have the words “hydrating,” “soothing,” or “replenishing” in the title.

After that, you’re done with your base makeup! Primer is the ideal makeup routine! Finish your look with Neyah’s kajal, eyeliner, lipstick, and other professional cosmetics range.

As we can see, primers come in a variety of shapes and sizes, based on our skin concerns and the area of the face we want to prime. If you want flawless and long-lasting makeup, you should not miss the priming phase. And, yes, choose Neyah’s basic or innovative tri-color primer for the skin that you fall in love with!
