Hero skincare ingredients like witch hazel, zinc and salicylic acid can all be found in the newest Smashbox primer, the Photo Finish Control Mattifying Primer. This skin-caring primer was created to provide a blurring effect and a smooth canvas for makeup to be applied, all the while strengthening the skin barrier against environmental stressors and controlling excess oil.
The mattifying, skin-caring and protective primer is said to create a "breathable, silky barrier" thanks to other additions like a Silkscreen Complex. The vegan and cruelty-free formula is useful for providing a layer of protection against pollution and blue light.
Suitable for all skin types and tones, the weightless primer keeps skin looking matte without drying it out.
