Spring 08: Mineral Makeup
Q. I was wondering if it is okay to put on makeup primer after I've put on my moisturizer. I was thinking the primer might not work anymore because of the moisturizer underneath. What do you think?
It really depends on how heavy your moisturizer is and how long you wait to use the primer. Most artists only use a primer on dry skin since most primers are silicone based and they sit on top of the skin to provide a smoothing effect. I would recommend a lightweight cream or lotion and applying it while your face is still a bit wet from washing. Let it completely dry and then apply your primer to fresh dewy (not sticky) skin.
