Colorescience
Brightening Primer SPF 20
A brightening, skin-perfecting primer with SPF 20
Colorescience Brightening Primer SPF 20 creates a smooth, radiant canvas for makeup while protecting skin with mineral SPF. It helps blur the look of imperfections, brightens dull skin, and helps makeup go on more evenly and last longer.
What it does
- Creates a smooth base for makeup
- Brightens and boosts radiance
- Helps blur the look of pores and imperfections
- Broad-spectrum SPF 20 mineral protection
- Helps makeup wear longer
Who it's for
All skin types, especially dull or uneven skin, and anyone who wants a glowing base under foundation or worn alone.
Why use a primer?
A primer is the step between skincare and makeup. It smooths the surface of the skin so foundation glides on evenly instead of clinging to dry patches or settling into pores. A brightening primer also adds radiance, which helps skin look fresh and awake even with very little makeup on top. Because this one includes mineral SPF 20, it adds an extra layer of sun protection to your morning routine.
How to use
After your morning skincare, apply a thin layer to the face. Wear alone for a radiant glow, or follow with your Colorescience foundation. For full protection, pair with a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher and reapply every two hours.
Building your routine
- Cleanse with Barrier Pro 1-Step Cleanser.
- Treat with a serum such as Even Up® Multi-Correction Serum for uneven tone.
- Hydrate with Barrier Pro™ Essential Moisturizer.
- Protect with a broad-spectrum sunscreen of SPF 30 or higher, like Total Protection™ No-Show™ Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50.
- Prime with Brightening Primer SPF 20.
- Perfect with a foundation like Tint du Soleil™ Whipped Mineral Foundation SPF 30 or Natural Finish Mineral Foundation SPF 20, or wear the primer alone.
Esthetician tip
Let each layer settle for a minute before applying the next. Giving your moisturizer, sunscreen, and primer time to set helps your foundation go on smoother and last longer.
Is SPF 20 enough on its own?
For full daily protection, we recommend pairing it with a broad-spectrum sunscreen of SPF 30 or higher, as the directions above suggest, and reapplying every two hours when you're outdoors.
Can I wear it without foundation?
Yes. On its own it gives a radiant, smoothed-out look, which is perfect for low-makeup days.
Will it make oily skin shiny?
Use a thin layer and focus it where you want glow, like the cheeks and forehead. If you're very oily, pair it with a matte sunscreen through the T-zone.
How much should I use?
A thin layer is enough. Too much primer can make foundation slide, so start small and add more only where you need it.
What's the difference between mineral and chemical sunscreen?
Mineral sunscreens use zinc oxide or titanium dioxide, which sit on the surface of the skin. They're generally gentle on sensitive skin, which is why we recommend mineral formulas so often in the studio.
Can I use it after a facial?
Follow the aftercare instructions we give you, and ask us when it's okay to go back to makeup.
