When should I use primer? Did you use it correctly?

Do you know when to use isolation cream? Especially women who need to face the computer frequently at work should apply isolation cream every day to effectively reduce the damage to the skin. You can use sunscreen after the isolation cream, the effect will be better.

1. At which step should isolation cream be used?

Primer is generally used after basic skin care and before makeup or other protective effects. The basic steps of our daily skin care are: generally wash your face with facial cleanser, use toner (or softener), and then use moisturizer. After these three steps at night, you can basically go to bed directly.

However, during the day, because of going out and working, you have to be exposed to the sun and air pollution, so you usually need a layer of protection. Primer generally has a sun protection function, but the sun protection factor of general primer is lower, which is much less irritating to the skin than general sunscreen. Therefore, when heavy sun protection is not needed, it is usually OK to apply primer directly after basic skin care. When the ultraviolet rays are strong, you need to use sunscreen with a certain SPF factor. Because sunscreen with a high factor is generally more irritating to the skin, it can be used after the isolation cream to increase the sun protection effect. If you need to wear makeup, primer must be applied before foundation.

2. Introduction to the correct use steps of isolation cream

Step 1: Apply to the cheek bones first

Because the autumn sun is very strong, first apply the primer to the protruding bones on the cheeks, which are more easily exposed to the sun and most likely to develop spots. Use your middle finger and ring finger to gently massage from the inside to the outside. Pay attention to the strength and avoid using too much force. Excessive force may cause wrinkles.

Step 2: Use less on the nose and use a powder puff on the nose wings

The nose tends to be oily easily, so the less amount used, the better. Gently apply it from top to bottom. The wings of the nose are prone to accumulation of isolation cream, so you should use a powder puff and apply it by pressing motions evenly.

Step 3: Draw circles on the chin and press the puff on the neck

Apply the sunscreen to your chin in circular motions, and also use a powder puff to lightly apply sunscreen to the extended face and neck. Don't forget the neck! Many people do not pay attention to the neck when using primer. In fact, the neck also needs to be applied, otherwise it will cause uneven color between the neck and face.

Step 4: Gently apply under the eyes

Don't forget the area under the eyes. Apply from the inner corner of the eye to the outer corner of the eye, pressing lightly with the middle and ring fingertips. In addition, the end of the eye is not easy to reach, so you can use one hand to gently pull up the corner of the eye.

Step 5: Don’t ignore the subtle details

Delicate areas, such as the hairline and corners of the mouth, are easy to be overlooked and prone to accumulation, so use a powder puff to press gently. Now that the primer is applied, put on some beautiful makeup and you can go out!
