    Q&A

    Can I use this primer in place of my moisturizer?
    Great question! No, primer shouldn’t replace your moisturizer. Primer is formulated to smooth the skin and help makeup last, while moisturizer hydrates and brightens.
    Does the primer go on before my concealer?
    Great question! Yes, primer is applied before concealer.
    How does this primer differ from the illuminating one. Which is better for a 70 yr old?
    Great question! Illuminating Glow is best for all skin types, especially dry & dull skin. It has a pearl, soft-focus finish. Brightening is good for all skin types, especially aging & dull skin. It has a bright, dewy finish.
    I have Rosacea and I have had it for years. Do you know if this primer could irritate my skin. Lately I’ve noticed it stings a little and face is a tad redder after I put this on. I’m trying to eliminate products that can irritate my skin. Thanks.
