I started being interested in primers since watching Lori's skincare video(thanks Lori :)) This product is great and has totally changed how my foundation looks and feels. and I actually believe that it is better than mac!
If you look at the ingredients u will see why:
Ingredients of mac:
Ingredients: Cyclomethicone, Dimethicone
Crosspolymer, Silica, Penoxyethanol,
Methylparaben, Ethylparaben, Propylparaben.
Ingredients of claudia steven
Ingredients: Dimethicone, dimethicone
crosspolymer, cyclopentasiloxane, silica,
phenoxyethanol, ethylparaben, propylparaben,
methylparaben, butylparaben, isobutylparaben,
tocopheryl acetate, magnesium gluconate, algae
extract, chicory root extract, maltose
Firstly, if you look at the ingredients of both
products, Claudia Stevens primer contains things
that are good for the skin such as:
Chicory root extract: helps heal skin lacerations
and sunburn.
Algae extract: normalize the skin’s moisture
content and a great protective barrier for skin.
Vitamin E: anti aging benefits, sun protection and
moisture balance.
Besides that, it doesn’t have that yucky cosmetic
smell. And it comes in a convenient squeezy tube.
Here's more on why I love it:
PROS:
Helps eliminate oil and shine
Minimize the appearance of pores
Helps foundation apply smoothly.
Helps control oil better than mac.
Doesn’t break me up.
Cheap.
CONS:
None :)
