Hello ladies!!
I am back with another post again today and this is as the name says a blogspot which will answer all of your questions related to eye primers!!
So lets begin......
What Is an Eye Primer??
Primer is basically as the name suggest is to prepare the eyes for the colours we are going to apply onto them!
It is almost the same concept as we see in painting the walls! We are preparing our lids so that the colour just glides very easily,stays longer onto lid and show very vibrant! it is actually like we are creating a smooth canvas for our eyeshadows.Eye Primers also protect our eyeshadows from creasing and fading!
Do I Need One??
Its just all about what you prefer!
If you are a person who just go for a kohl pencil or just a liner then i will suggest you to just go for a powder! Just apply your regular compact powder on your eyes so that if you have minor discolouration that will hide and then apply liner.if you have oily lids you might need to touch up inbetween!
Very basic thing is here which will help you all to decide whether you should go for a primer or not is your eyeshadows!!
If your eyeshadows are very pigmented then you can skip a primer but if your eyshadows are not pigmented and you are spending really hard time making them visible on your lids its always good to apply a base beneath to get rid of that hassle!!
And if your eyes have some discolouration then its always advisable to go for a primer that has correcting properties because that will hide all the discolouration and will give you a smooth and one coloured base.
Somebody just asked me on my Facebook page that what i actually use on my eyes!
And she was asking about my daily skin routine too! I ll cover this topic in a separate Post!
So I guess in India we don't have much option if we just look into those drugstore brands for eye primers! May be one or two brand has primers especially designed for eyes like Revlon, faces and Colorbar but i am not sure about colorbar!
But if you look into those big brands you will find many like from Mac or inglot etc
What Are Alternatives??
So if you are on budget or just a beginner and don't want to buy every single product then i have some alternatives for you!!
1.Go for a concealer no matter if it's a cream or liquid or just a stick concealer that will work! Just make sure if your concealer is cream or stick concealer then it might be little sticky and if you put something on a sticky base that will stick too and we wont be able to blend eyshadows in that case so after applying your concealer just apply a little amount of your face powder and blend !
2.If You have a Face Primer you can use that on your lids too!!
3.you can use even your BB cream or CC cream as your base.
I think the possibilities are endless and I can include so much things here but i don't wanna make you confused so i am keeping this simple so that even a beginner can understand it easily!
And lastly what i use is just a concealer which is cheap in terms of price but works so well!! Its from a brand called Olivia which more focuses on making some skincare products like creams Or facial kits. I bought this when i just started learning things and Now my skin is going pretty well and i don't need a concealer for my face.
The key to use this concealer is use a little product at a time and blend well! I just use it as a base for my eyeshadows and i don't use it on my face because it is very very thick and if not applied carefully can make you look cakey and i have used my foundation as my base too but that was really horrible!! and this works pretty good as compare to my Maybelline foundation just for a base but that foundation is pretty good for face!
And for price it is just for 100Rs!!
