Best primer for Haus Labs?

I have recently purchased  Haus Labs high tech foundation. I have mature, dry and sensitive skin.  
I don’t seem to be able to have success with this foundation - although my skin is well prepped - the foundation iis a magnet for my pores and dry patches. 
Is there a primer that will work the best for this foundation?

Re: Best primer for Haus Labs?

Hi!

 

 I have not used that foundation, but I do have dry patches on my face, especially near my eyes and on my forehead.


I use MERIT Great Skin Instant Glow Serum with Niacinamide and Hyaluronic Acid 1.69 oz / 50 ml and #MERIT Great Skin Priming And Firming Moisturizer With Peptides And Hyaluronic Acid 1.69 oz / 50 ml  on my face and then under my eyes I have started using Hourglass Equilibrium™ Intensive Hydrating Eye Balm 0.58 oz/ 16.3 g .

 

The balm is extremely effective and you literally only need a tiny bit (I was used to putting a lot of eye cream under my eyes and having it sucked up into my skin in minutes). This balm is more hydrating (pricey but it works).


I use my ring finger to tap it on and then wait three to five minutes before applying MAKEUP BY MARIO SurrealSkin® Awakening Concealer 

(it has caffeine). I love it. Lots of color choices. 

 

I use a damp Beauty Blender to tap the concealer into the inner corner of my eyes where it is darkest (underneath and on top) and blend it gently around so I don’t have raccoon eyes 👀.

 

I don’t use foundation any longer (I have spent so much $$$ trying to find one that works for me). I can’t find a foundation that doesn’t “highlight” my dry patches. I have come to the conclusion that it doesn’t exist. 


I just use my concealer and the beauty blender to even out my skin tone. It takes a lot less time, looks more natural and honestly I think it makes me look younger and healthier.

 

Hope this helps. Check out Merit and Hourglass. I also like Caudalie Premier Cru Skin Barrier Rich Refillable Moisturizer with Bio-Ceramides.  These days I spend more money on skin care than makeup. 

Other LOVES include Merit flush balm and mascara. I have been looking for the perfect eyebrow combo (pencil and brow tint). My brows are thinning and dry (not sure if that’s what it is but they seem a bit unruly). I don’t like crunchy brow that flake. Give me a shout if you have something you love! 💕

I recently started using the IMethod Brow  for my eyebrows and love it! I used the one with 2 prongs instead of 4 on one end and 1on the other end. It looks like actual hairs.

Thank you! I will check it out.
