So you've watched several YouTube Make-U Tutorials and your make-up looks fleeky. Imagine spending all that time to apply the makeup only to have it literally melt off your face as you step into the Sun. Make-Up meltdown? Definitely on this street! Applying Primer and Makeup sealers is the key to having your makeup lasting for several hours. Keep reading as I tell you all you need to know about makeup primers and sealers.



Think of your face as a blank Canvas and you are about to paint a masterpiece. In order for the make-up to sit on your skin and last long , you will need to apply a Primer. Primers have the ability to smooth the face and blur out any skin imperfections that you have on the top layer of the skin.
When purchasing Primers you need to get ones that matches your skin in terms of oily , dry or combination and also the look you are going for whether its matte or glowy.

There are also various Primers that can be used on other parts of the face such as on the eyelids to make eye-shadows last longer and there is also lip primers you can use to make your lipstick last longer and prevent feathering and bleeding.

Brands I like : Maybelline . Arbonne , MAC




I started using a Make-Up Loc and Seal from Elf for one month and it has changed my life! It's extremely hot in the Caribbean and no matter what I used the make-u just would not stay and it looked sweaty , shiny and gross! The lock and seal come in a small bottle with a dropper and a tiny mixing pot and all you do is add the drop directly to the product  ( eye-shadow ) and for liquids like foundations you add some to the mixing pot add one drop , mix and apply. This locks the make-up into your skin and is removed only when you use soap. My make-up lasts all day and there are no touch ups throughout the day. No more Make-Up meltdown and the make-up stays fresh and flawless.

If you are looking for easy ways to make your make-up last all day , get yourself a Make-Up Primer or a Sealer. There are some people who use both and some use one or the other; it's completely up to you,
