MAKEUP PRIMERS

Primer is a product that can improve the quality of makeup, prolong its durability and protect the skin from negative influences. Is it always necessary to use a foundation? Yes, if we are talking about professional makeup.

What are the bases and how to use them. Remember the most important rule of choosing foundation and base: NEVER take a universal product: "for all skin types... etc.". Such a product is not suitable for many people (it is mostly for normal skin), or the effect of it will not be so long, may aggravate skin problems, if any, i.e. it is difficult to find a universal product.

By skin type: Moisturizing - for dry skin.

Matting - for oily and combination skin. Smoothing - for uneven skin (with traces of post-acne, scars), mostly silicone texture.

Reflective - for normal and dry skin, gives a rejuvenating effect, gives the face a slight glow.

Colored: Green - for inflamed and irritated skin (acne, dry skin, vascularity). See the color wheel green color opposite red, when neutralized can and will be gray, because neutralization is to get achromatic color, discoloration. "color without color" is gray. More adapted and professional bases give a color close to your skin tone (beige, brown), without gray, because in addition to pure green pigment, there are other colors (beige-body), which clearly you can not see. Conclusion: don't be confused - when you overlay color on color there is neutralization, and when you mix complementary colors you get brown.

Pinks are for a yellowish-grey face (will give a peachy color), for greenish-olive skin (will refresh, give a neutral shade)Peachy - for age-toned skin, for a neutral shade. Peach complexion is conventionally considered the most noble and beautiful, gives a healthy, fresh and rested look. The basis of the peach color is two colors red and yellow, when mixing which produces an orange color. Example: a girl's skin is prone to redness, but she does not want a neutral shade, but wants a beautiful peachy tone, in this case you can add a yellow corrector to the foundation.

Yellow - for thin skin where violet blood vessels and veins show through. Lilac, violet - for skin with increased pigmentation of brownish-yellow patches (spots, stripes, etc.) or when working with the camera, as some foundations give a strong yellow tint when oxidized.
