Best Primer
Why: It was love at first sight with this primer, which makes skin look impossibly radiant with illuminating, color-correcting particles (and probably witchcraft). The gel formula provides a satiny base for applying makeup, and contains absorbent powders that keep skin shine-free and luminous throughout the day.
Honorable Mention: Dermalogica Hydrablur Primer
Readers' Choice Winner: Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer
Why: This formula goes on smoothly and feels like silk on the skin. My foundation goes on smoothly after using this. It makes my skin look flawless.
Honorable Mention: Benefit The Porefessional Face Primer
