Oriflame The One Illuskin Primer Review

Makeup is not done with logics of mathematics, isn't it?? But what if I say, there is logic behind why/why not to use a product. In other words, you can say there is a logical manner of following up a makeup routine. If you're wondering why am I being so logical today is to convince you to prep your skin in a way that the makeup you wear adds a glow to your looks.
Basically I'm talking about a beauty lesson that's pretty much underrated and it's regarding the usage of a Face Primer. 

Primers are available in cream, gel and powder formats (powder being the least commonly seen). The one I'm using at present is from Oriflame called as The One Illuskin Primer. Isn't the name fascinating in itself?? You visualize yourself wearing a illuminated skin after you apply the primer. But did it really work the way expected??
The Illuskin primer comes in tube packaging which is lightweight and handy. Absolutely easy to push in a corner of your makeup kit or handbag. The white and purple themed tube looks classy.
The tiny hole on the top of the tube nozzle dispenses only little amount of product and avoid any wastage that may happen due to excessive size. The tube is soft to squeeze.
I won't call this primer a gel or cream, but it's similar to a lotion of medium consistency. The white colored primer is light on skin and blends like a dream. I had read mixed reviews about this primer and was not sure whether it will suit my dry skin or not. But I'm glad to share that the primer has nice moisturization effect to it that may even allow normal skin beauties to skip a layer of usual moisturizer at time (though I've to hydrate my skin first).
The primer gives a velvety feel to skin without any stickiness, but is not completely matte. The day you start applying a primer, you'll notice the longevity of your makeup is increased. A thin layer of face primer is enough to smooth fine lines, wrinkles and pores so the foundation/makeup setting powder/compact that you wear on its top doesn't fade away sooner.  The final face makeup done over primer stays put as long as the whole day and the skin looks fresh and glowing illuminated.

Overall, The One Illuskin Primer is not a drying formula rather is a good choice for mild moisturization and to even out the base of facial skin. It has no specific tint to it, so goes well for everyday usage. It has faint smell which is too light to bother sensitive noses. A little goes a long way for this primer, so make that bottle last till the time you like to glow within your skin!
