As the name suggests, ‘Primer Time Protecting Primer SPF 30‘, this primer not only preps your skin for makeup but also protects against external stressors such as UV rays and blue light. This all-in-one product simplifies your skincare routine while ensuring your skin stays healthy and protected.
The Most Important Thing About the Prime Time Hydrate & Glow Primer Is…
This multi-functional primer enhances the longevity of your makeup for up to 24 hours but also offers protection for your skin. With a potent SPF 30, it provides mineral-based protection against harmful UV rays, blue light and environmental pollutants. By shielding your skin from these external stressors, it effectively combats premature skin-ageing.
Clinical studies have confirmed its efficacy:
– After just 2 weeks of use, it showcased an 11% improvement in skin tone
– Within the same timeframe, it delivered a 51% enhancement in skin texture
What Does It Look Like On?
The Daily Protecting Primer has a peach hue that blends into the skin seamlessly. When I applied it, I immediately noticed how it visibly smoothed and refined my skin. The mineral-based SPF infused in this primer is sheer and completely invisible, so you don’t need to worry about a white cast being left behind.
What Skin Type Is It For?
The formula is suitable for all skin types, making it a versatile option for everyone. Regardless of your skin type, you can benefit from the protection it offers against environmental stressors, especially the damaging effects of UV rays. Protecting your skin from these external influences is crucial and this primer is here to provide that necessary defence for all skin types.
You Will Love This If…
If you value efficiency and prefer combining multiple steps into one or if your skin prefers minimal product layering, the bareMinerals Daily Protecting Primer is the ideal choice for you. With just one swipe of this product, you accomplish 2 essential tasks for your skin: flawlessly priming your skin for foundation and providing reliable protection against various external influences. It removes the hassle of layering multiple products, saves time and declutters your skincare/makeup collection all at once.
Hero Ingredients:
Infused with humectants like glycerin, the formula effectively locks moisture into the skin to replenish and restore its hydration levels. To provide an additional layer of nourishment and moisture, it also contains camellia oil, a dry oil cherished as a Japanese beauty secret. This special ingredient moisturises your skin but also helps soften the appearance of wrinkles and offers protection against environmental stressors and harmful UV rays.
What Does It Feel Like?
The creamy texture effortlessly smooths over the skin, blending in like a moisturising cream. Once it sets, which takes just a couple of minutes, the skin absorbs it without leaving behind a greasy or heavy residue. Instead, it left my skin feeling moisturised, noticeably smoother and incredibly soft, creating the perfect canvas for my foundation to glide on flawlessly.
What Does It Smell Like?
The primer doesn’t have a distinct fragrance. However, you may notice a subtle resemblance to the aroma of foundation, but it’s not particularly strong or overpowering.
What’s Special About The Design?
You can easily spot the bareMinerals Daily Protecting Primer by its pink-pearlescent tube. I love the minimalist design choice of the packaging – it looks great on my vanity alongside my other makeup products.
How Do You Use It?
Following my regular skincare routine, I applied a small amount of the primer to my entire face using my fingertips. After allowing it to set for a few minutes, my skin was perfectly prepped for the rest of my makeup routine.
