Youngblood Mineral Primer $77

Loving Youngblood Mineral Cosmetics’ new Mineral Primer. This silky, lightweight makeup primer is specially formulated with vitamins and minerals to help protect skin cells, stimulate collagen growth, and aid in the repair of stressed skin. This silicone-based primer absorbs instantly and dries to a smooth powdery finish prepping skin for a flawless makeup application. The vitamin and mineral enriched formula delivers a luminous, youthful-looking complexion, is non-greasy, glides on smoothly, controls shine, and eliminates the appearance of pores and fine lines. Don’t apply your mineral foundation without it.
