Priming your skin is an absolute cannot-miss step of your makeup routine. It makes foundation last all day, smoothes out your skin, and can even get rid of pesky crater-like pores. But paying through the roof for something that is, well, essentially invisible, is v annoying. This list gives you the cheap primer that offers you supermodel skin.<\/p>\n

1) L’Oreal Paris Lumi Magique Primer<\/h2>\n

This thin lotion has the prettiest glow to it and works amazing for dry skin to give you the healthy looking skin you’ve always dreamed of. Your makeup’s\u00a0wear will be prolonged, but beware if you have oily skin- you will need to top up after 5-6 hours.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

2) Sleek Makeup Hydrating Primer<\/h2>\n

Sleek is a drugstore makeup champion, and the cheap primer is no different. Perfect for dry-normal skin, this primer hydrates the skin, helps makeup go on smoother, and leaves a dewy finish that lasts for the majority of the day.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

3) Rimmel\u00a0Fix & Perfect Primer<\/h2>\n

This is a solid primer, which helps even the oiliest of skin keep its foundation in place, absolutely no powder required. Well, maybe a little, but this is a really good one. The only downside is you might have to buy it on the regular if you like to wack on primer by the bucketload.<\/a><\/p>\n

4) NYX Pore Filler<\/h2>\n

If you struggle with pores and unsmooth skin, this cheap primer is the perfect product to\u00a0lessen your worries. You will be so smooth and so matte you won’t believe your\u00a0eyes. There’s a reason we all love NYX.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

5) e.l.f Mineral Infused Primer<\/h2>\n

A primer to end all other primers, e.l.f’s take on the first beauty step is a winner. It goes on so smooth and makeup will feel amazing on top. You will want to wear the whole bottle at once, and when it’s so cheap- that’s not a bad thing.<\/a><\/p>\n

6) The Ordinary High Adherence Silicone Primer<\/h2>\n

Pore-minimising, hydrating, mattifying, staying power. Literally everything you need from a cheap primer in one nicely-packaged product. Skin looks and feels amazing with this- so much so that you can wear with or without the rest of your makeup.<\/p>\n

<\/a>7) Maybelline Face Studio Master Prime Blur + Illuminate Primer<\/h2>\n

Blurring and illuminating almost NEVER happens, but here it is\u00a0and of fantastic quality. This is a favourite amongst drugstore beauty gurus, and is even available in different shades to address different skin concerns. We luv.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

8) The Ordinary High Spreadability Fluid Primer<\/h2>\n

The Ordinary hits it out of the park again with this one. It’s a lightweight, serum-like\u00a0formula, which provides the ultimate dewy base and silky smooth feeling. Makeup will glide right on, and you will glow<\/em>.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

9) Revolution Setting Spray Aqua Priming Base Water<\/h2>\n

This spray doubles up as a primer and a setting spray, to ensure your makeup lasts all day. It even contains ingredients that help with skin complexion- giving long-lasting benefits as well as short-term\u00a0hydrated skin.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

10) Maybelline Baby Skin Instant Pore Eraser Primer<\/h2>\n

Potentially the most renowned drugstore cheap primer for quality, Maybelline’s Baby Skin changes our skin in a matter of seconds to a blurred, balanced and ‘baby’ soft blank canvas. It’s been on shelves for quite some time now- with no signs of budging.<\/p>\n
