The difference between primer and liquid foundation

The difference between primer and liquid foundation

There is a big difference between primer and liquid foundation. Primer is used for skin care and isolation, and it is also a layer that can be applied on the face before makeup, while liquid foundation should be applied after primer. Some people have better skin properties, so it is okay to apply liquid foundation directly. However, it should be noted that it is best to moisturize first before applying it, because moisturizing is very important no matter what skin type you have.

Primer FAQs

1. Is primer considered skin care or makeup? Is it the same as primer and sunscreen?

Primer is the last step of skin care. In some translations, it is also equivalent to isolation. Currently, most primers are three-in-one products of isolation, contouring and sun protection. Just choose one.

2. At which stage should it be used? Before and after sun protection? Before and after isolation?

If it is a simple colored primer that can even out skin tone and fill in fine lines, use it before sunscreen primer. Otherwise, you can choose a primer with sun protection value and skip the subsequent sunscreen.

3. Why does my makeup look so unnatural when I use primer, and why does my foundation look muddy when I apply it?

The first reason is that too much amount is used. Generally, a soybean-sized amount is enough. Apply five points on the upper, middle, lower and two cheeks, and then pat or spread it horizontally. The second reason is that some primers need a while to be absorbed before applying foundation, which will look more natural.

Liquid Foundation

Liquid foundation is a liquid foundation, which is suitable for neutral, combination and oily skin. Compared with the moisturizing effect of foundation cream, the oil-control effect of liquid foundation is relatively better. Different types of foundation products should be selected for different skin types.

Liquid foundation plays a protective role. It is the first step in applying makeup and the last step in skin care. It blocks dust in the air from entering the skin, thus playing a protective role. The moisturizing liquid foundation with highly effective moisturizing ingredients can "catch" the moisture in the air and "lock" the moisture in the skin, thus moisturizing the skin. It is the most considerate layer of outerwear for the skin. If the weather turns hot or you have oily skin, a foundation with oil-control ingredients will give you better results.
