2. Priming is essential

Not priming your face is the first step of

witnessing your makeup melt epically. A primer doesn’t only smoothen your base, it also eases the makeup applying, and makes it stay on your face longer. Think of it as a type of glue that adheres your base (foundation, BB and CC creams) and also works as a shield between your skincare and makeup. If you’re a heavy eyeshadow user, treat your eyelids with double eyelid primer — this will help the makeup stay on longer and prevent your eyeshadow from creasing. The same applies to other facial parts where you apply makeup.
