2. Primer
Before going ahead with the concealer and foundation, it is advised to apply a layer of primer on the face. Miss Claire's Studio Perfect Professional Makeup Primer is a secret to flawless skin that looks airbrushed. Apply this primer onto clean, dry skin for an instant boost that will virtually erase the pores and provides a blurred, soft-effect look.
