What is the difference between primer and make-up primer?

Many women don’t understand some of the cosmetics used in daily life, especially isolation cream and primer. What is the difference between them? Primer can be used after isolation cream. Let the skin care experts tell you the specific difference between the two.

1. The difference between primer and primer

1) Primer: mainly used to enhance the adhesion of powder and makeup. Primer is a product similar to isolation. It either corrects skin tone or controls oil and moisturizes the skin. It is different from isolation cream in that isolation mainly protects the skin from damage by makeup and harmful substances in the air. If your skin tone is relatively even, it is not necessary to use it.

2) Primer is used to modify uneven and dull skin color. For example, if you have a yellower skin tone, then if you apply primer or foundation directly, the color will also be uneven. Similarly, you should use primer of different color for different skin tones. Primer is used to brighten the skin tone, isolate dirty air, radiation, and has some sun protection function. Primer now actually also has the effect of sun protection and isolation, but primer is still mainly for modification, while primer is still mainly for isolation.

3) Primer is used to adjust your skin tone before you put on foundation, while primer is used to prevent dust from entering your skin. It also has a sunscreen effect. There are many shades of primers nowadays, which can also improve your skin tone. So it is more convenient to use primer, as it has all the functions. Haha~

4) Primer, as the name suggests, is a layer of lotion applied before applying makeup. It contains moisturizing ingredients and keeps the makeup effect lasting. It is recommended to apply a layer if your facial makeup is prone to peeling or floating. Most isolation creams contain sun protection factors, which can effectively block ultraviolet rays, nourish the skin, and prevent powder from damaging the skin. They are usually colored, similar to foundation.

5) In fact, the so-called primer is the lotion or intensive repair essence that we usually use before putting on makeup, and some girls also call it a primer. Lotion and intensive essence belong to the category of skin care products and do not require makeup removal. The modifying lotion with sun protection, face repair and brightening effect, that is, isolation cream, belongs to the category of cosmetics and therefore requires makeup removal.

2. The order of using primer and primer

1) The function of primer is to make makeup adhere better, make makeup look more natural, and make skin more delicate; isolation cream is to isolate makeup and prevent makeup from penetrating into the skin and making the skin lose its luster, so primer is used after isolation cream.

2) After doing a good job of skin care, that is, after the basic face wash, lotion and facial cream, you should apply isolation cream. Isolation cream is the first step in makeup (the previous ones are skin care steps), and then primer is mainly used to improve skin tone, which is also a makeup step, so it should be used after isolation cream. In short, the first step after skin care is isolation, and then various makeup products are put on the face. Isn't the isolation cream used to separate cosmetics from the skin to prevent cosmetics from damaging the skin? Think about it this way and you will understand.

3) Basically, primer and isolation cream are the same thing, but because the names and functions of each product are different, there is a small misunderstanding. Some products can add tint, foundation, oil control, or pore covering. It depends on your needs. ^^ If you buy both, I suggest you use the primer first and then the primer. The lady at the counter introduced: primer-->foundation-->makeup primer, etc.
