Prime: the first step to flawless skin and one of the easiest ways to help ensure all day wear and a flawless application of your mineral makeup. Primers, which are most commonly made from a dimethicone-based formula, re-texturize the skin in preparation for the rest of your makeup. Dimethicone is a silicone-based polymer with a silky texture and it conditions and protects the skin against water loss with a light, breathable layer and minimizes the appearance of fine lines.

WHAT DOES PRIMER DO?

Primers fill in fine lines and blur imperfections to give you a smooth, even surface for pristine product application. By starting with an even surface, less makeup is needed to achieve the same coverage saving money in the long run. Especially important for anyone living in extreme weather conditions, primers create superior surface adhesion so your makeup stays in place and lasts longer whether you’re hot and humid in the summer or cold and dry in the winter. This often overlooked step has a great impact on the look and wear of your makeup, especially when applied correctly for your skin type,using Glo Skin Beauty’s Block Priming Technique.

WHAT IS BLOCK PRIMING?

Block Priming involves sectioning the face into five areas; forehead, nose, chin, cheeks and eyes,using primers formulated for your specific needs. Inspired by the concept of multi-masking, Block Priming views the face in five segments because, more often than not, things like oil production, breakouts and pigmentation concerns vary across our face. This allows you to expertly customize your priming step to create complexion perfection.
