Save Vs. Splurge : Primer


Benefit “That Gal” Face Primer vs. Lo’real’s Studio Secret Professional Primer
($29.00)
Pros:
  • Brighten’s skin tone.
  • Goes on smooth.
  • Helps give you a natural glow.
Cons:
  • Doesn’t last throughout the day.
  • The tube will only last you a month tops (Theirs only 0.37 ounces of primer in that tube!)
  • Not recommended for oily skin. It leaves an unpleasant shine.
  • Only use-able for people with fair skin.
($5.00-$10.00 depending on the size)
Pros:
  • Helps pores appear smaller (What’s up dry skinned ladies!).
  • Goes on smoothly.
  • Keeps makeup immovable all day.
  • Accessible at any local drug store, so you don’t have to search for a Macy’s or Sephora near you.
  • Evens out skin color, which means you use less foundation.
  • Reduces the appearance of fine lines.
  • It’s a thicker primer. Which means you typically use less, leaving you with more product at the end of the month. #SAVEDPENNIES
Cons:
  • Not recommended for girls rockin’ mineral powder foundation. It tends to clump up.
  • Not helpful for redness or blotchy skin.
Basically if you can read, you can clearly see the winner this month is:
SAVE! 
Don’t waste your money on this NO benefits Benefit Primer.  It costs twice as much as the L’oreal Studio Secrets Primer! Take that $20.00 and go hit up Victoria Secret’s 5 for $20.00 panty bin! Or buy gas, whatever.
