Worth the Hype : Makeup Forever Step 1 Equalizer Mattifying Primer
Hello Dolls and Gents,
So, have you guys
have heard about Makeup Forever New Skin Equalizer Step Primers, if not where
have you been. MUFE have released these primers earlier in the year and I am
now jumping on to the band wagon. Honestly, I didn't want to fall into the hype
of these primer especially if the mattifying primer is silicone based. I have
realized when it comes to face primers, the best primer for combo/oily skin is
a silicone, but silicone makes my skin for some reason more oily. It does not
control my oil, so I feel like there is no point of use a primer.
Anyway, back to the
MUFE primers. These STEP 1 line of primers is to help transform your skin while
addressing different skin issues such as dullness, redness, dryness, large
pores and shine, and etc. all in their own unique formula to help tackle the
skin issues. I do not have all 10 to
share, but I will focusing on one which is part of 5 primers that tackles
texture concerns. The other five primer are formulated to correct the tone of
your skin and radiance.
MUFE promises that
the Skin Equalizer line will
"the
promise of triple the power of foundation by improving application, enhancing
colour, finish and boosting hold. This is because of the new and exclusive
EQUALIZER COMPLEX which is a triple dose
of active ingredients"
- Act-tensor 3D, blurs imperfections and creates lifting effect
- Regeactive, a vegetal sugar that boosts cellular renewal for a more unified texture
- Hyaluronic acid, hydrates the skin, while protecting against water loss
The primer is water
and silica based which is different for the standard primer for mattifying
primer, which is silicone-laden formula, which I told you early that those type
of primer do not work for me.
STEP 1 Skin
Equalizer Mattifying Primer, promises it is the answer to unwanted shine,
fighting against excess oil to ensure a matte makeup result. Formulated with
our specific Sebustop Vegetal Complex, this first skin equalizer instantly reduces pore size and controls shine for a flawless makeup all
day long.
I purchase the
travel size of the mattifying primer which is 15ml/0.5 fl. oz. and is $19. If
you would like to know my thoughts on this primer, then just keep on reading.
Packaging
The primer come is a
grey squeeze tube with a precise and narrow tip. The only thing that I think
could be a good or bad thing for some people is that it is difficult to
squeeze. I find it to be a good thing because you have better control of how
much product you would like to use.

Texture and Consistency
The consistency of
this primer is thick, almost paste like and a pale white beige hue on my skin.
The texture of the primer is the same as the BECCA Ever Matte Primer, meaning
it has a tacky feeling, almost like glue. It dries matte and leave a little white
cast when does not change the colour of the foundation.
Longevity
The longevity of the
primer is amazing. OMG, when I first tried this primer the longevity sucks as,
but it was due to the fact that I did not allow it to dry completely before
apply my foundation. But learning for my mistake, the primer will have prolong my
makeup for a good couple, it can really last for 8 hours. My oiliness start to
come through the 7th hour mark, which is amazing.
Verdict
I love this Makeup Forever Step 1 Skin Equalizer primer. This is the only high end primer that I have tried and
really works for me. I love how it pro longs my makeup wear. It is a define
repurchase, but will I repurchase the travel size again or the full size. Well,
that all depends on my funds, I think I will be repurchase the travel size for
a well, until I am ready to fork out $43
for the full size product. I definitely recommend you guys to try other primers
from this line that is best suited for your skin texture.
