Foundation is great when first applied, making you look just like a catwalk model, but when it fades you really don't have much base left.
So what's a girl to do? The best way to keep your makeup on your face is to invest in a really good primer, apply this before your foundation and somehow it makes your makeup 'stick'.
Whilst browsing through Tesco's the other day I thought I'd give the Barbara Daly primer a go, I've tried the 17 one before, and whilst the results were okay I got fed up of using it after a while as it wasn't brilliant.
The primer is like whipped cream, it has a very light texture and goes on really smoothly. I apply all over the T zone, cheeks, forehead and face and then leave it a minute or two and apply the foundation on top. The foundation seems to just slip on with ease and application is very easy.
Several hours later my makeup is pretty much still there I don't have too much slippage and I would probably say the makeup has reduced by about 20% but considering you often wipe your face without noticing that's not a high percentage. Overal a very good product with good consistency and staying power!
You can buy Barbara Daly primer in all good Tesco stores for around £9.
