Affordable and “dupes” compared to high end.
**Remember: always give 30-60 seconds to let your primer set**
Wait 30 seconds after applying primer -Provides a sticky base and makes the products you put on top last longer. Slight watermelon scent, love this for year around.
Jelly Pop Dew Primer - e.l.f. Cosmetics | Ulta Beauty
Soft matte primer, blurs and softens the skin. I like to use this for makeup I plan on wearing for 6+ hours and I place it right in the T-Zone of the face.
elf matte power grip primer
a VERY good alternative to the MILK hydrogrip primer. Apply a thin layer and wait 30 seconds before applying foundation and other products. Can also be used as an eyeshadow base!
Power Grip Primer - e.l.f. Cosmetics
I like this as an alternative to the Tarte primer, it's affordable and it does really well at softly blurring the pores. Take a little product and PUSH into the skin, do not swipe.
Conceal + Perfect Blur Out Smoothing Primer - Milani Cosmetics
I love who this looks on the skin, very hydrating and dewy but it does not make the skin look greasy.
Supercharged Dewy Primer | Milani Cosmetics
I like this one because its a cream to gel formula. It helps soften the look of pores but also hydrates without making you look oily.
Set It Up Pretty Fresh Primer | ColourPop
High End
**Remember: always give 30-60 seconds to let your primer set**
blurs the skin but also hydrates, I also really love the metal tip that is used to apply the product. Love this for the spring and summer months!
Blur and Hydrate Primer For Oily Skin - REFY
my favorite one of the two but I love this the most during the fall and winter months!
Glow and Sculpt Face Primer - REFY
Blurs and hydrates the skin, I like to use this mostly during the summer months and directly into my t-zone.
Studio Fix Mattifine 12hr Shine-Control Primer - MAC Cosmetics
hydrates the skin and provides a healthy glow to the skin that does not look greasy. Perfect if you have dry skin or if you want something that is more hydrating during the fall & winter months
Studio Radiance Moisturizing + Illuminating Silky Primer
The absolute best at bluring the pores, just take a little and PUSH into problem areas (do not rub in) I used this primer on almost all my brides!
timeless smoothing pore primer - Tarte
If you're wanting a 3-in-1 primer this has your vitamin c, hyaluronic acid and moisturizer all in one. A little goes a long way and feels really nice on the skin.
Vitamin Enriched Face Base Moisturizer & Primer - Bobbi Brown
I love this primer because it hydrates my skin but it also softly blurs my pores. A little goes a long way.
Vanish™ Airbrush Primer - Hourglass Cosmetics
