Max factor facefinity primer

If you have oily skin you will know that foundation has a funny way of sliding right of your face. 

For me double wear is the only foundation I have found that doesn't fall off my face. 

Whilst I love makeup and some days I love the full coverage the Estée Lauder range provides other days, I want something natural. 

Not the days I want. Natural maybe even dewy finish I need to use a primer. 

My drugstore primer of choice is Maxfactor. It sets matte but doesn't have a silicone finish like the studio primer from
Loreal and the primer from bourjois. Honestly I think they are the same product. I did a review of the matte primer from body shop earlier in the year. This is a silicone primer and this again did not create a matte finish for me. 

This maxfactor primer goes on like a liquid foundation and it sets on your skin. It's translucent and has no shimmer or colour corrector. This is purely a product for keeping your foundation in place. 

I apply this after my skincare routine and before my foundation. This is not a replacement for a pore minimiser. If you have enlarged pores and you mask them with something else. 
This product costs £10.99
It will last as long as your foundation maybe even longer should you use it everyday. 

This primer has an SPF 20. Which is great. Just make sure you apply it all over your face to ensure you are protected. 
Please be aware that over SPF 10 you can get flash back in photos. 

On my skin this works well very with NARS sheer glow. 

You can still set your foundation with powder as you normally would. I am
fortunate enough that this primer and foundation work well on my skin and I don't need to touch up throughout the day.
