Some of us wouldn't even think about leaving the house without first applying our go-to primer, while others have never even tried one on. And mostly, peeps just want to know why primers are even required in their beauty routine. Let me lay it out for you...
A primer helps to even out your skin tone, close up large pores and hide wrinkles, leaving a smooth base for you to apply your foundation over. They can also help grip your makeup, meaning it lasts longer (heavenly).
Despite being be a bit exxy at times, it's never an excuse to exclude the process altogether. Once you find the perfect one for your needs, you will notice a world of difference and the cost won't be such a deterring factor. Plus, they last! True story.
But don't take my word for it, check out what lovely ladies from all over the interwebs had to say about their perfect skin saviour.

I have only ever used the inika organic primer and i haven’t used it enough yet to judge how effective it is at making makeup stay put. I shall be investigating further.
