Primer

A Korean primer, often called a makeup base, goes on after skincare and before foundation. This collection of face primers includes Laneige Skin Veil Base in Pure Violet and Mint Green, VDL Lumilayer Primer, Missha Layering Fit Base and The History of Whoo Gongjinhyang Mi Essential Makeup Base, plus options from Innisfree, Blithe and Hera. Tinted bases such as violet or mint are used to adjust the look of the skin tone before foundation.
