Never miss Step one with the new Makeup Forever Skin Equalizers

Primer is always the first step in my makeup routine. However, I always felt like my skin needed more or that certain parts of my face needed different things. Makeup Forever Skin Equalizers ($36 USD for 30ml) answer that problem as there are now 6 formulas to answer 6 issues when it comes to priming your skin and I have four of them to share with you. For example, I have combination skin. I am oily in my T-Zone, I have normal skin around my cheeks, but dry patches around my mouth and nose area. These new primers from Makeup Forever address many skin texture issues to create the perfect complexion for smoother application and longer lasting foundation.

Mattifying and Hydrating Primers

The mattifying primer takes care of oily skin issues. A little bit of this does go a long way as only a small amount is needed to achieve a matte texture to the skin. The texture is very smooth and non clumpy. This is only to be applied to areas of the skin where shine develops quickly. I found this primer to hold my oil at bay for 5 hours.

The hydrating primer is targeted towards normal skin types that need to hydrate the skin before makeup application. It’s a non greasy formula that extends the wear time of your foundation and plumps the skin.

Nourishing and Smoothing Primers

The nourishing primer is great for dry skin types. This primer is rather creamy and rich in texture. One morning I did not moisturize my face, decided to go right into this primer and it gave instant moisture and soothing relief to my skin.

The smoothing primer is my favorite of the bunch. It fills in enlarged pores and fine lines on the face. This primer blurs imperfections and even my acne scars get smoothed over. Foundation also sticks to the skin better and you get more of a skin like finish because you now have a smooth base before application.

Have you tried any of the Step One primers?
