Ask any beauty aficionado what their first step is before applying makeup and chances are they’ll respond with one word: primer. Setting the foundation for your foundation is a key step in ensuring not only a smooth finish, but also in getting your look to last.
Set a Smooth Canvas
One primer with a firm place in our beauty kits is Giorgio Armani’s Maestro UV Skin Defense Primer SPF 50. The lightweight primer features a hydrating silky liquid texture instantly melts onto the skin, leaving a matte-finish while fading the look of imperfections and creating a smooth canvas for an easier foundation application.
Protect While You Prime
In addition to leaving skin looking great, the formula is also protective. Thanks to a broad spectrum SPF 50, it helps fight against visible skin damage caused by the sun, including wrinkles and other signs of premature skin aging. The primer features transparent anti-UVA/UVB filters that create an invisible barrier, absorbing harmful rays before they reach the skin's surface, making it a perfect option for a daily wear SPF under your makeup.
