I don’t believe in the shadow without primer or fixer. As good as the quality is only with them, the shadow stays in place and adheres firmly to the eyelid (at least mine!). I always comment on this blog and turn around and move I receive a comment wondering the difference between primer and fixer, because finally it’s time to explain it. Come with me!
The function of both is basically the same: improve color and increase durability, however, they differ mainly in texture, result and form of application.
Choke
The primer has a creamy texture, some denser like O Boticio Make B and others lighter like Tracta, the difference in density mainly affects the intensity of the color that the primer gives (the denser, the more power it gives the color!) , and also about the accumulation in the folds (the thicker it is, the faster it accumulates).
ADVANTAGE: The prebase is the easiest product to use!It is applied a little in the eyes, waiting for it to dry and ready, the eyelid can already receive shade. There is no secret drawback: it does not stick bright shadows and pigments as well as fixer, especially those that are not compact but loose. Ficaadica: I only recommend NOT applying in the hole, in fact, this region is where we mix the shadow and, as the primer highlights the color, it will make the stain darker than it should be, and the idea of spreading is just a passage of more faded color. You can even apply the primer to the entire eyelid, but to the concave. , apply a facial powder before the smear slides better, okay?
Fixative
The fixer has an ointment texture, like sticky, you know?Bless Cosmetics is my favorite because it has a good compromise between texture and power, Catharine Hill is also correct and similar to Bless’s, but it’s lighter and less powerful.
BACKGROUND: The fixer is able to completely change a shadow (see this example). In fact, this greatly increases color strength and better breaks glue/brightness particles. because this texture completely prevents stains. I only use this type of product when the eye shadow has brightness, otherwise I do not think it is worth it, because the problem of fixing is the ability to retain the shine. • Ficaadica: as this makes mega spots difficult, the advice is to apply only to the fold of the eye, and preferably at the end of makeup, just to paste some bright eye shadow. Apply a little with your index finger and press lightly.
FIRST AND FIXER IN ACTION To show you the difference in tone, I chose the Verdelicia glow tone from who said, eggplant ?.
Nothing? WITH FIRST MAKE B? WITH FIRST TRACTA
Nothing? WITH FIX COSMETIC INJURIES? WITH CATHARINE HILL FIXER
In short: the fixer makes the tone stronger and better holds the glitter, but accumulates more and it is more annoying to work The prebase is easy to apply and accumulates much less in the folds, but it also does not retain the glitter and improves the color less The durability of both is similar.
