Makeup Primers: Yay or Nay?

My favorite makeup primer is Smashbox Studios Photo Finish. I don’t use it everyday, especially in the California heat (I just don’t want one more thing on my face!) but I do love the way it feels and how it gives my face a nice polished look. Now that I think about it, I should pull it out and use it more often!

We had two women of different ages each test a top foundation primer geared toward their skin type. Find out if their makeup looked better … and if anyone noticed.

    Primer is a MUST for me. I have very oily skin and it helps keep my ‘shine’ in check! I don’t like silicones so I use a powder primer instead.
