How to Apply Eyelid Primer

Applying eyelid primer is an important step in eye makeup that can help your eye makeup last longer, prevent creasing and enhance the color payoff of your eyeshadow. Here's how to apply eyelid primer:

1. Start with clean, dry eyelids: Make sure your eyelids are free of any oils, creams, or makeup. You can clean your eyelids with a gentle cleanser or micellar water.

2. Apply a small amount of eyelid primer: Using your finger or a brush, apply a small amount of eyelid primer to your eyelids. You only need a small amount, about the size of a grain of rice, to cover both lids.

3. Blend the primer: Using your finger or a brush, blend the primer evenly over your eyelids. Make sure to blend it up to your brow bone and into the inner corner of your eye.

4. Wait for the primer to dry: Give the primer a few seconds to dry before applying your eyeshadow.

5. Apply your eyeshadow: Once the primer has dried, apply your eyeshadow as usual. The primer will help your eyeshadow adhere to your lids and prevent it from creasing or fading.

6. Finish your eye makeup: Complete your eye makeup by applying eyeliner, mascara, and any other eye products you like.

Tips: - Choose an eyelid primer that matches your skin tone or is transparent. - If you have oily eyelids, look for an oil-free primer that can help control oil production. - Use a primer that is specifically designed for eyelids rather than a face primer, which may not be formulated for use on the delicate eye area. - Don't use too much primer, as it can cause your eyeshadow to look cakey or flaky.
