Perfect Primer

HOURGLASS: VEIL Mineral Primer


At the moment top of my list for my morning makeup ritual, which is hectic at the best of times, is the Veil Mineral Makeup primer by Hourglass.  Now, I am not a fan of all primers especially for a combination skin, but this oil free product is just the job.  It also contains a SPF15 and is fragrance free.  This product has been carefully designed to help conceal any redness and minimise the appearance of the pores while at the same time softening any fine lines and wrinkles which is a perfect blend when creating fresh, flawless makeup.

Hourglass have produced in Veil a silky and light formula which leaves other thicker primers miles behind in terms of quality, and don’t be put off by the price as you really do only need to use a tiny amount for one application.  Believe me a little goes a long way...
