primer can even out the skin tone and act as a base for foundation to be applied on top. and it can act as a protection to your skin as well. after primer, apply foundation on top, and it helps the foundation to last/stay longer and more even out. some primer has "whitening" purposes. some primer is intended to be used underneath foundation only and not to be used alone. for example, certain type of primer (if used alone only) will make your face look shiny/sparkly in a bad way. it'll look weird. i think bb cream is more like a foundation than a tinted moisturizer. so if i have to name the order, i would say primer, then bb cream or foundation. primer is always the base, it doesn't go on top of the foundation as that will defeat the purpose of a primer. but do make sure you put on your regular day time moisturizer first, then primer, then foundation/bb cream. moisturizing your skin before applying primer is important.
i used to really really like the one from H2O, however, the product has been discontinued. the mac pre & prime (don't recall the exact name) is good. the one from chanel is also good. i've heard that laura mercier is good but i've never tried it.
primer shouldn't be heavy nor cakey. so even if you use primer, then bb cream, then foundation, the face shouldn't look caking. when you apply it on the face, it should go right in with no residue on your hands. |
