Two special effects. Both built with skincare.

 Not all primers are created equally and I know this. two decades working in luxury beauty has ensured that I understand skin, whether it is from my days of working with clients on their pre wedding skin or actually creating the look for the day. Primers were until recently considered part of the makeup world but I am delighted to see them move more onto the space of skincare and become more efficacious.

Clinques new makeup-perfecting, silicone-free Even Better™ primers are powered by skincare ingredients to improve your skin with every wear. The Even Better™ Pore Defying Primer is a weightless water-balm formula that instantly blurs out pores to create a filtered effect, while niacinamide helps reduce oil and hyaluronic acid hydrates skin. It’s the ideal primer for combination and oily skin types as it helps mattify the skin without drying it out. The Even Better™ Light Reflecting Primer gives skin an instant glow up, powered by radiance-boosting vitamin C and hydrating hyaluronic acid. Each tube contains 20 billion prismatic illuminators, harnessing the power of light to visibly brighten skin, leaving a gorgeous lit-from-within finish. Thanks to the hydrating ingredients, it’s suitable for all skin types, particularly dry and mature skin.
