A flawless face is the basis of every great makeup look, and while a great skincare regimen, foundation and concealer work wonders, makeup artists have another trick up their sleeves for stunning skin: primer. Primer preps your skin for the perfect foundation application by filling in fine lines and smoothing pores, and it also keeps your makeup looking fresh all day. Consider it the key to making your skin makeup-ready. Here are our tips on how to apply primer like a pro. APPLICATION: Choose the right primer Wash your face with a gentle cleanser Apply moisturizer Squirt a pea-sized amount of foundation on the back of your hand Apply the primer to the center of your face and use gentle, circular motions to blend it outwards Allow the primer to dry completely

APPLICATION: Choose a sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or 50 Apply evenly to your entire face Pat the sunscreen until it’s fully absorbed into your skin. Apply your makeup.
