Why include eye and face primer in your beauty routine

Primers are not just an optional addition to makeup: they are true strategic allies to improve the wear of makeup and skin wellness. Kalentin face primers even out skin texture, help minimize pores, control T-zone shine, and extend the wear of foundation, making it more uniform and professional.

One of the strengths? They are suitable for all skin types:

• Oily skin: prone to shine and enlarged pores. The primer mattifies, minimizes pores, and reduces shine, ensuring a fresh and long-lasting base.
• Dry skin: often dehydrated with makeup that tends to crack. The primer gently hydrates, creating a thin film that nourishes and helps makeup stay even.
• Combination or sensitive skin: the primer rebalances the facial zones without irritating, making it perfect also for reactive skin or redness-prone areas.

The eye primer is equally indispensable for those who want an intense and flawless look. Applied before eyeshadow or eyeliner, it improves pigment adherence and enhances brightness, even after many hours. A simple step to achieve a smooth, velvety, and long-lasting base from morning to evening.

Face primer: the secret for a flawless base

Kalentin’s face primer is the first essential step, after skincare, to get a hydrated base that lasts all day, formulated with high-quality ingredients. Our primer makes the skin smooth and even, improving and extending the application of foundation and concealer. The lightweight formula absorbs quickly, leaving skin soft and silky to the touch.

How to apply it? Using primer is very simple. Just apply a light layer of product on clean skin, with circular motions, starting from the center of the face, and gently tap it with your fingers. Once dry and absorbed, you can proceed with concealer and foundation application.

For a face makeup that lasts all day, use our primers paired with our professional liquid foundations and Kalentin liquid concealers, then add a touch of color with compact blushes and highlighters. Don’t forget to organize all your products in stylish Beauty Cases to keep your routine neat and travel-ready.

Eye primer: the secret ally for a long-lasting look

Among Kalentin products, there is not only face primer but also a primer designed to enhance eye makeup. Kalentin eye primer is a true ally to achieve defined and smudge-free eye makeup.

Apply this product on the eyelids before using compact mineral eyeshadows and mineral eyeliners; this way, you will have an adherent base that prevents makeup smudging. The eye primer also intensifies eyeshadow color, improves adherence, and prevents buildup in the eyelid crease, ensuring an impactful and long-lasting eye makeup look.

How do you use eye primer? It’s very simple. You can apply the product on the eyelid gently tapping with your fingers; once applied, wait a few minutes for it to dry before proceeding with eye makeup.

For makeup perfect application, make sure to use the right make up accessories, such as brushes and sponges, to blend products flawlessly.

Benefits of face and eye primers

Using face and eye primers offers significant advantages, these products not only improve the look of makeup, but also help extend its wear. Thanks to their lightweight formula, Kalentin face and eye primers absorb instantly into the skin, creating a perfect base that doesn’t weigh down or clog pores. Additionally, face and eye primers can help correct any skin imperfections and improve the overall appearance of makeup.

Skincare: the base for good make up

To achieve even, luminous, and long-lasting makeup, it is essential to start with a proper skincare routine. Preparing the skin is a fundamental step because it is the key to better product adhesion, reducing visible imperfections, and ensuring comfort throughout the day.

Your beauty routine should begin with a gentle cleansing to remove impurities, excess sebum, and product residues. Next, apply a balancing toner to restore the skin’s pH and prepare it for hydration; toner is not always essential and depends on your skin type.

Choose your face cream according to your skin type: lighter if you have oily or combination skin, richer if your skin is dry or mature. Don’t forget the periocular area, where a good eye cream can reduce puffiness and signs of fatigue.

Once skincare treatments are absorbed, it’s time to apply Kalentin primers: The face primer creates a smooth, even surface, minimizes enlarged pores, and improves foundation or BB cream adherence, prolonging wear.

The eye primer prevents eyeshadows and eyeliners from smudging or building up in the eyelid crease, intensifying color and maintaining the perfect look for hours.

This synergy between skin care and makeup is essential: well-prepared skin not only enhances the finish of makeup, but also increases its durability and aesthetic result. With Kalentin primers and targeted skincare, your base will be even, natural, and ready to enhance every look, from the simplest to the most sophisticated.
