Prime Time

It has been super humid and hot lately here in the Nation's Capitol, thus giving me the perfect reason to whip out my one of all time favorite foundation primer.

Hourglass Veil mineral Primer!!!

Primers are a key product in makeup application. They come in an assortment of textures, colos, and ablities. In my personal "makeup book" product ablities would be the most important of these. Tthere is one very important thing you must understand about this product make up.

#1 It's water resistant NOT waterproof. BIG Difference.

Plain and simple terms:

Water Resistant = Resisting though NOT entirely preventing the movement of makeup exposed to moisture.

Waterproof = Preventing the movement of makeup due to exposure to moisture.


Who: Hourglass Cosmetics

What: Water resistant mineral foundation primer

When: This primer should be used under your foundation as a base to prep your skin for long term foundation wearing.

Where: Sephora and Hourglass.com

Why: To minimize pores by preping skin for foundation application, while providing a water resistant barrier.
