Primer & Finishing Spray

Flawless makeup isn’t just about the execution – it’s also about how you prep and how you tidy up. Finishing spray and primers are a vital part of your makeup routine, and each can help you revolutionize your technique. Primers are used to prepare your skin for certain types of makeup, like foundation, eye shadow, lipstick or mascara, while finishing spray helps to not only protect your makeup from wear and water throughout the day, but keep it looking dewy. At Merle Norman, you’ll find both of these cosmetics in ample supply – so take a look and perfect your routine.

Primers for Every Style

In order to get the most out of your makeup routine, you should prime your skin for powder and gel makeup. Merle Norman has a primer for most types of makeup, including Mascara Primer and Eye Shadow Base – two less-seen primer options that can help you get the most out of your eye makeup. Our primers are also designed to combine the benefits of our skincare products with our makeup, helping you to keep your skin happy and healthy while you place makeup over it. No matter what your makeup routine entails, be sure you’re getting the most out of it with primer.

Finishing Spray for Finished Looks

When you’ve completed your look, it’s vital to preserve it with finishing makeup. This type of cosmetic helps to not only seal your makeup in place and protect it from being smudged or ruined throughout the day, but it can also help adjust the levels of wetness on your face, depending on whether you use finishing powder or finishing spray.

What does primer do?

Primer prepares the skin or lashes for makeup by creating a smooth base, helping makeup apply more evenly and last longer.

When do you apply primer in a makeup routine?

Primer is applied after skincare and before makeup, such as foundation, eye shadow, or mascara, depending on the type of primer used.

What’s the difference between primer and finishing spray?

Primer is used before makeup to prep the skin or lashes, while finishing spray is applied after makeup to help set the look and improve wear throughout the day.

How do you use finishing spray?

Hold the finishing spray several inches from the face and mist evenly after completing your makeup. Allow it to dry naturally for best results.

Do you need both primer and finishing spray?

Using both can help maximize makeup performance. Primer helps create a smooth starting base, while finishing spray helps lock makeup in place for a polished, long-lasting finish.
