Glow Game Strong: Best New Primers for Radiant, Long-Lasting Makeup
Because every flawless look starts with the perfect base.
When it comes to achieving that scroll-stopping glow, most of us think foundation is the star of the show. But here’s the beauty truth: your foundation is only as good as the canvas underneath. That’s where primers come in. No longer just a backstage step, today’s primers are multi-tasking heroes—blurring pores, extending makeup wear, boosting radiance, and even protecting your skin with SPF.
If you’ve been searching for your next beauty game-changer, these new primer launches are here to level up your prep routine.
