The Benefits of Powder & Foundation Primer

By , About.com GuideOctober 22, 2011

Follow me on:

This week I stopped by Sephora to stock up on some of my favorite beauty products. It was at the Laura Mercier section that I learned there's actually a primer for powders. Who knew? The primer works by filling in pores and fine lines and wrinkles so the powder doesn't settle in. Turns out Laura Mercier has a mineral primer specially formulated for women who wear powder. It's pictured here. Buy it online.

My first step in my beauty routine is to apply a tinted sunscreen, so a foundation primer works best for me. Laura Mercier makes an excellent one. Buy it online.

Learn all you need to know about primers in What is a Foundation Primer? And Do I Need it?.
