Primer for mineral foundation

[monkeysmama]

I use a Becca primer when I use liquid foundation but need one for (most) days when I use Bare Minerals. I've tried their own one and didn't think it made any difference whatsoever. Any recommendations? Main things is smoothing pores.

TIA.

I wasn't keen on BM primer either. Have tried most of them around and the best imo surprisingly is Barbara Daly from Tesco - it's a tenner but they often do 3 for 2 deals. It's amazing stuff and makes such a difference, it was my best beauty find of 2011!

Thanks Valium. I must be one of the only people in the world without a Tesco nearby but will seek one out and try it. I've heard good things about the Benefits pore minimiser too though I went off Benefit a few years ago.

It's worth the trip and the Face Lift cream is fantastic and almost identical to the Bobbi Brown Vitamin Enriched cream but £7 instead of £30. I m very snobby about make up so it's good if I use it

I can second the face lift cream...it is lovely. They also do a liquid bronzer - beautiful over a tan/under BE foundation

I will find a Tesco! Do they stock her stuff in all their stores?

I don't know but would think so - ours is quite small and it still has a stand. It is really good stuff.

The Face Lift cream is quite quite brilliant with a bit of primer on top

The other thing that is worth getting whie you are there is Goodbye Yellow nail varnish, which is a clear polish but has a blueish tinge which makes you look like you have a really bright fresh manicure - love the stuff!

Thanks again Valium. I use a Seche Vite one which does that but is over a tenner.

This is £3 iirc
