I used to think that a primer is unnecessary in my makeup routine. The first primer I tried was the Benefit Porefessional, which was so silicone-y that I felt it was suffocating my skin by clogging all the pores. It did an awesome job in smoothing out my skin, but it absolutely wasn't comfortable to use. The other one I gave a chance to was the Smashbox Photo Finish Primer Light, and it did virtually nothing for me. But when I decided to splurge on the Hourglass Veil Mineral, my whole perspective changed - I now cannot live without a primer! Boy, it was truly a holy grail material and definitely deserves all the hype it has gotten. By now you probably know that this product is amazing, but let's talk about how and why this has become my all-time favorite!
