Foundation Primer


My friend S told me to mail away for this free sample of foundation primer. It promptly arrived in the mail. I had no idea what a foundation primer is, but daughter L came home and said 'Smashbox!  I use foundation primer!'  She was quite welcome to have the sample, glad it won't go to waste! Apparently you put it on, then apply your eye shadow and it has this long lasting effect or something.

Smashbox is cult. Primer, it makes a huge difference to staying power. My makeup stays put for day into evening with a primer. Great for me for work. Can also use primer instead of foundation in the summer for an at home or grocery shop day. Order another for yourself immediately!

I rarely wear makeup any more (except for mascara), but sometimes when I want my skin to look smoother I'll use primer.

My daughter uses stuff like that. I don't wear much makeup anymore.

I use smashbox mascara. I like it a lot. I've used different primers and find they do a good job. Primers seem to lay down a nice finish for you them to put your makeup on. As our skin ages, we have to try different things.

Glad your daughter was excited and it won't go to waste. :) I have heard of primer, but haven't used it. Thanks for sharing!

I hadn't heard of that, but I'm glad your daughter will enjoy it!

I've actually heard of it, makes sense. Works for the face like painting primer works for walls I'd imagine

I only ever wear a little blusher and a touch of lipstick ...
Pleased that your daughter is more than happy to use this.

All the best Jan
