What is a primer?

In fact, many people ask what is the difference between isolation and primer? However, "isolation" or "primer" are collectively called Primer in English. Both isolation and primer are a kind of base makeup before makeup. There is not much difference between them. They are the first step after skin care, which can make the subsequent base makeup more adherent and in better condition.

What is the role of isolation?

Many advertisements for isolation creams claim that they can block ultraviolet rays, dirty air, makeup, and even computer radiation. In fact, these are all tricks used by brand owners. Isolation creams cannot completely isolate the so-called dirty air and makeup. It is impossible to form an isolation film on the face, so dirty air and makeup will inevitably fall on the face to some extent .

In fact, the role of primer is nothing more than improving skin condition, modifying pores, and correcting skin tone . Many times, when the skin becomes oily and makeup comes off, people think that the foundation is not long-lasting enough; when makeup sticks and does not adhere well, people think that their skin care products are not good; when there are more and more blackheads on the nose, people start to rely on cleansing masks and pore astringents. In fact, this is all because of not using primer.

Isolation cream can improve the skin condition before makeup to a certain extent. For oily skin, using oil-controlling isolation cream can control the oiliness of the skin that causes makeup to come off to a certain extent, making the foundation more lasting. For dry skin, using moisturizing isolation cream can make the skin more hydrated and reduce the phenomenon of makeup sticking.

There are many primers on the market that can brighten skin tone, smooth skin, and make pores invisible. Many primers can also correct skin tone. If your skin is in good condition, you can directly use primer and a layer of powder without foundation.
