Matte Perfection Pre-Makeup Base Primer

Inspired by the unlikely mattifying superpowers of milk of magnesia – a liquid laxative (!) known for its milky, powdery formula – Huda Beauty’s Matte Perfection Pre-Makeup Base is the ultimate primer for oily, shine-prone skin. Known for her unconventional beauty hacks, Huda put milk of magnesia to the test as a primer and was then inspired to create a pre-make up base that would mimic the oil-absorbing results. Composed of 60% water, the formula gives on-the-spot control to mattify skin and melt-proof your make up throughout the day. The thin, gel-like formula instantly absorbs shine while creating a smooth canvas to give foundation incredibly long-lasting wear. Infused with plant extracts to balance skin’s moisture levels, this nutrient-rich, oil-free primer boasts a unique blend of minerals – including magnesium, potassium and calcium – to revitalise skin and boost radiance. Comfortable on skin, the formula also visibly reduces the appearance of pores, fine lines and uneven skin texture – use it alone or combine it with Huda Beauty’s {Complexion Perfection Primer} in areas that need hydration for a magnificent ‘mewy’ finish.
