*** WHY DO WE NEED PRIMERS???***
Primers were actually used mostly for those who were onstage performing (well that makes sense if you're sweating all the time you need something to keep your make up on right)? The point of a primer for an everyday woman is baskcally to keep your make up on longer and help with your complextion. While this was amazing for performers oriers have evolved since the early day of time. Korean primers have been a prime exacple if this evolution for it keeps your make up on longer but these advanced formulas have helped fill pores, soften those annoying lines and depending on what kind of skin you have will either moisturize or reduce the oil on your face. In addtion it contains SPF so you don;t have expose your skin against skin cancer and just gives your a great glow and healthier skin!
HOW TO CHOOSE THE PERFECT PRIMER
Like cc creams, bb creams and cushion foundations, a primer is just as important in your daily skin routine. There are so many types you can choose from whether its a cream, gel, color correcting, etc. The most important thing before buying the right primer really get to know your skin, whether it is soft, dry, or if you have combination or sensitive skin. Of course if you are allergic to some of the ingrediets you may not want to purchase it even its made out of gold and platnum lol. Many don't know this but primers are not just to help extend your make up throughout the day, but ut can moisturze, shrink pores, some even contain SPF.
Seals Make-Up
White a buys day who wants to keep applying powder, lipstic, and eyeshadow. The main job of a primer is to help keep you makeup on all day without retouching. But how how many hours a day does YOUR primer work???
Softens Skin
If you're anything like me I'm super paranoid about what I put on my face. As you all now there are thousands of primers in thie market today but which primer does its job and has a luxurious, soft felling to them? Can you imagine putting anything else
Moisture
An excelent primer will not only give you mositure and therefore soft skin If there isnt enough moisture in primers it can dry your skin out and visa versa. Either way you don't want our skin to feel like sand paper but smooth as a baby's behind! lol!
Ingredients
We all know everybody in this world has a variety of skin. Some ingredients will work for one persona whil it may not work for the best. Otheres with only use organice or may be allergic to protects. Because of this we must always read the labels in every primer.
Anti-Aging
Primers these days aren't just used to just extend your make up throughout the day. Many companies have been creating formuals to keep find the pesky fine wrinkles away. Who would have thought a primer could keep us looking young and radient!
Pores
We all know toners and moisturizers are made to shrink your pores but with the primers these day, it can do the same thing. If your toner, moisturizer and primer can do all these things at once what's there to lose!
Acne
Many primers today have been so technolgically advance that it has ingredients to get rid of acne and and reduce red spots on your face. Now you can look lke an adult instead of going through the horrifying years of puberty.
Weight/Texture
We never want anything that weights to heavily on your face, you want a primer that is feather-like and feel as though you have nothing on (yet at the same time it better do it's job)!

The first thing that I actualy noticed about this primer was the packaging! How cute and extremly creative. The Tony Moly Eggpore is mainly known for hiding large pores, scars, and fine wrinkles it does this by managing excess sebum which int turn helps you apply make up smoother than most products. Although it make take a couple weeks to see dramatic results, if you keep at it you will see a big change.

- The texture of this primer is a bit different than most, it does not feel like a moisturizer but its also not water like a toner. Yet once you put it on your skin the thicker yet soft primer absorbs into your skin very nicely giving a s soft outcome throughout the whole day.

I must say this quite is a cleaver idea for a primer! The thing that stands out about this product is that it combines a bb cream and primer in one bottle. It is known as the B.P Cream or Pore Eraser.
The cream itself has a soft sily texture and very light; due to the bb cream, remember a small amount goes a long way. In addtion, this cream/primer is able to stand water, covers well but at the same time it will slowly get rid of blackheads and tighten pores. Now I know its always a difficult to combine two separate products into one without something lacking but this would be a prime example of something that works well.
