Liquid primer

Post by Springfairy » Sat Dec 01, 2012 10:40 am

My skin is prone to dryness and is sensitive, so sometimes even with all the moisturising it's best to use liquid primer on it instead of powder, especially in winter. I was gifted with 100% pure luminous primer which is a great, natural, silicon-free primer except for the price tag. Since I otherwise don't use this brand, would it be possible to create a similar liquid primer? Please? :)

I would be interested in a liquid primer too. I used the Monistat chafing gel, and now Bare Mineral's primer, but would prefer something from SN. I used to mix my own sunscreen primer too, with the gel, raspberry oil and zinc, so maybe something like that would be cool :) I don't mind silicones, but I know others do.

A primer would be nice :) I don't mind silicone either, I actually prefer it. So maybe a version with and one without. And then once it takes off(and I'm sure if Karen makes it, it will :)), more versions, one moisturizing for dry skin and one for oily skin :)

Whilst I'm not allergic to silicon, the reason I'd prefer a silicon-free primer is because, as far as I understand, it 'seals' your skin. I always had small zits after I used silicon-based products.

Everyone has different reactions to everything, I don't have any problems from using silicone based products, and the "sealing" is good since I have very dry skin especially now in the winter so I want to protect it from the elements. But I do want to add that most silicones do let the skin breathe contrary to common myth, I have researched into it.
But this is why a silicone and a silicone-free version would be great, something for everyone :)

I would also be happy to use SN primer. I am also very dry, and have to apply minerals right after moisturizer, sometimes have to add moisturizer as it had soaked too quickly.

I have started hoping :-) tiad!

I used the stick 'em eyeshadow primer on my face for october (i wore 11 halloween costumes this year) without any reactions. My makeup didn't budge either. Just a thought

I wouldn't use the stick'em primer as an all over face primer on a regular basis due to the ethanol that's in it! I could see it becoming very drying. I'm glad it worked for you as a primer with no ill effects when you used it though. :D To each their own. Though, I'd like to see a primer formulated for the face without alcohol and packed with good stuff for the skin! :lol:
