How it works

This primer utilizes a range of ingredients to achieve a balanced and smooth skin surface appearance. C15-19 Alkane acts as a silicone replacement, offering a lightweight feel without silicones. Dilinoleic Acid/propanediol Copolymer aids in adhering makeup for longer wear. Cetyl Alcohol and Glyceryl Stearate work as emollients, contributing to a smooth texture while maintaining skin hydration. Boron Nitride helps in blurring surface-level imperfections, giving a softened appearance. Glycerin, a known humectant, draws moisture to the skin, ensuring hydration is maintained. Lauroyl Lysine, an amino acid, may enhance the feel of the product on the skin, while Corn Starch Modified enhances texture for a matte finish. Together, these components create a primer that aims to optimize the look and wear of makeup while preserving skin moisture.
