How to use oil as a primer

Katrine blog Marina Miracle oil as a primer

I have been using Marina Miracle for quite some time now and I have discovered that some of the products can work as multi-products. I am a trained makeup artist so this was a little revolution for me that I just had to share with you!

Cut out your primer.

Primer is really just another unnecessary layer of makeup, so why not use something that both nourishes your skin and also meets your needs? I've experimented with both Herbal Face Oil and Acne Fight Serum , where I've cut out my primer and only used oil under foundation. You use primer to make your makeup last throughout the day, to get a fresh glow and to meet your personal needs.

Oil as a primer

My main focus is to have a nice glow, so I have always chosen a primer that can also give me a glow. But now I have stopped using primer altogether because I discovered that the face oil I was using covered both my need for glow and that my makeup stays looking good much longer. Both Herbal Face Oil and Acne Fight Serum have worked great as a primer for me.

Three steps to a beautiful glow

Point 1 Step 1: Cleanse the skin well with Sweet and Creamy Oil Cleanser.

Point2 Step 2: Apply the facial oil that suits your skin best, let the oil absorb well into the skin. (Currently I use Acne Fight Serum )

Point 3 Step 3: Apply a few extra drops right before you start applying your makeup.

Once you have followed these three steps, you will notice that the oil has left a nice glow on your skin that shines through your makeup!
