Block Priming Technique: Multi-Priming How-to

By now we’re all familiar with multi-masking, applying various masks on different areas of the face to treat multiple skin concerns. Guess what? Priming is now personalized, too! Anyone can prime like a pro with Glo’s signature Block Priming Technique.

Makeup artists know that priming, an often overlooked step, has great impact on the look and wear of your makeup. Say sayonara to smudging, creasing or disappearing foundation throughout the day, when you add primer to your morning product lineup. Viewing the face in block segments allows you to zero in on the perfect primers for your skin’s specific needs. Glo’s Block Priming Technique sections the face into five areas: forehead, nose, chin, cheeks and eyes.
