Primer, Concealer and Foundation
« on: December 26, 2019, 12:47:07 pm »
As I am getting old, I consider wearing concealer and foundation. One of my friends recommended to wear primer before applying foundation. Even I did not know what primer is. He recommended the following one as my face is oily and I have ordered it:

I also got a pore concealer.

Yesterday I tried both pore concealer and foundation after applying moisture cream and Shiseido sun cream.



I feel my face looks better.  With primer, I wish my face look further better.

My friend said to me that I should wash and clean clearly before sleeping.

Hourglass is a brand of the U.S., and I can get an imported one here in S. Korea. The price is affordable (ca. US$ 25). The pore concealer and foundation are domestic products here, and the prices are ca. US$7 and. US$ 60.





Have you tried other products to recommend?

What are your goals?  Trying to look softer and inviting?  I doubt you have any freckles to hide.   My objective is to hide stubble.  I have the unique problem in that I have a reaction to anything coconut.  You'd be surprised how much coconut derivatives are in foundation as well as soap, which caused a real problem awhile ago. Coconut make my face soft;then I go to razor my skin and I look like a crack addict or or Jr shaving male.  So basically I don't use any foundation at present.

Dang!  The woman in the last video is absolutely beautiful, and her makeup is PERFECT for her.

I realized that I am too lazy to wear foundation every day. This year, I have never worn foundation.  ;D

I have oily skin and primer does nothing for me. It is very frustrating.

Chanel "Le Blanc" Multi-use Illuminating Base .. I use it as a primer and it's great to mattify and/or prepare for tinted moisturiser or foundation.

I use primer and foundation to try and cover my pore-y, stubbly face daily, in an attempt to assimilate in my work environment with as few masculine cues as possible.

My makeup skill is not expert and I am not particular in brands at this point.  Cost is my factor.  Currently using Maybelline Face Studio primer and Super Stay Active Wear foundation.  I pat down with just a little powder to reduce the shine.

Hoping at some point to stop wearing foundation daily.  So many women don't.

You are still beautiful, Barbie.

Nowadays I do not wear makeup, except suncream and false eyelashes. A trend here is 'natural makeup', which makes young women look like not wearing any makeup. Heavy makeup is for aged or professional women. Even most women do not wear skirts or heels. They just wear jeans and athletic shoes. And, young women here become more and more obese, and most of them, including my teenage daughter, wear baggy jeans.

Virtually no competitor encourages me to be beauty and fashion savvy. I may go to the capital area to see the new trend, refreshing my interest in makeup and beauty.
