Makeup base keeps your makeup set for the whole day.  It also helps to  even out skin tone for a smoother complexion. Apply moisturiser before  your base.
Pop Beauty Face Magnet Primer (HK$230) 
This liquidy product is easy to blend. Its slightly pink colour helps to camouflage pores and spots, and  brightens  skin.  Shake well before use.

Sephora Luminizer Smooth & Mattify Base (HK$109) 
One pump is enough to cover your T-zone and chin, where most people need extra help keeping makeup fixed. This has little effect on pores, but keeps grease and bay and makeup in place - for not much money.
Tel: 2771 8067
Nars Makeup Primer (HK$330) 
Thin, light, smoothing  and easy to spread,  this helps to hold  foundation in place all day.  Perfect for natural and nude  looks, but does little to cover pores or spots. 
Tel: 2737 3074
Clarins Instant Light Complexion Perfector (HK$230) 
The tube keeps the product fresh and its pump means you can easily control how much product comes out. The base is light-textured and easy to apply, and really does make a difference to your complexion. Reasonably priced for what it does. 
Tel: 2295 0827
Orbis Smooth Mat Base (HK$139) 
The  handy pocket size means you can keep this base in your makeup bag for touch-ups as necessary.  This  creamy base feels like talcum powder and leaves your skin super soft, and is perfect  for those  with an oily complexion.
