Redness? Here is the green face primer
The primer is a product usually in gel or cream that is applied before make-up. There are different types of primers depending on the area to be made up and treated. In fact, we find: face primer, eye primer and lip primer. Discover them with us!
In today's article we will mainly talk to you about face primer and in particular the GREEN face primer. But let's go in order and see together the properties and uses of the face primer.
Facial primers are usually applied after your moisturizer and before your foundation and have different functions, depending on their specific formulation. The most used are filler primers, which fill small expression lines and enlarged pores, thus making the skin texture appear smoother and more homogeneous. We have mattifying or anti-shine primers, particularly suitable for oily skin, because they keep excess sebum under control and make make up last a long time.
Then there are the illuminating primers, designed for mature or dull skin, which needs an extra touch of light.
Lastly we have the corrective face primers which, unlike the previous ones, have different colors and help to correct the skin tone by acting through the theory of complementary colors, just as happens with classic concealers.
- Green primer: reduces skin redness
- Yellow primer: illuminates dark or dull skin
- Peach primer: gives a "healthy effect" to very light skin
- Purple primer: counteracts excessively yellow skin undertones
As mentioned before, today we focus on the green one and we recommend the best ones on the market.
The green primer is a face primer that, in addition to evening out the skin texture and increasing the duration of make-up, neutralizes any redness that may be caused by various factors:
- scarring due to acne or pimples;
- rosacea;
- rosacea;
- capillaries in evidence;
- redness of the skin due to external agents (wind, sun, etc.).
The green primer neutralizes the redness of the skin and the effects are not given by the coverage of the product but by the cancellation of the red color given by the green pigments present in the formulation.
It is extremely useful if you want to obtain a healthy and natural-looking complexion, completely free of visible discolouration. This type of product is usually offered in a fluid or slightly creamy form as it is easier to apply and more effective in terms of yield.
How is it used? exactly like a conventional primer: you apply it all over your face as if it were a cream in case i redness present are particularly widespread. It is also possible to apply it in a localized manner if the problem is limited to specific areas of the face (e.g. nose, chin, forehead, cheeks). It can be applied either with a classic foundation brush or very simply with your hands to adequately distribute the product. Once dry you can move on to applying our foundation or concealer.
