Product Information
Full details
The theBalm Anne T. Dotes Face Primer is designed for makeup enthusiasts and professionals looking to create a flawless, long-lasting canvas for their complexion products. Its primary benefit is the ability to smooth the skin's texture and extend the wear time of foundation, though users with extremely sensitive skin should perform a patch test first given the inclusion of specialized smoothing agents.

FAQs
Can I wear this primer without foundation?
Yes, it can be worn alone to blur skin texture and provide a more uniform, smooth appearance.
Is this primer suitable for dry skin?
Yes, its smoothing properties help prevent foundation from clinging to dry patches, provided the skin is properly moisturized first.
Does this product contain SPF?
No, this primer does not contain SPF. Please apply your preferred sunscreen before the primer if sun protection is required.
How long will a 30ml bottle last?
With daily use of a pea-sized amount, the bottle typically lasts between two to three months.
Can this be used under powder foundation?
It is best suited for liquid and cream foundations; for powder foundations, ensure the primer is completely set to avoid streaks.
Troubleshooting
Foundation pilling or rolling off
Allow your moisturizer and the primer to dry fully for 1-2 minutes before applying foundation.
Primer feels too heavy
You are likely using too much product; start with a pea-sized amount and work in thin, even layers.
Difficult to dispense
Ensure the nozzle is clear of dried residue; wipe with a clean, dry tissue after each use.

- Enhances overall makeup durability

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure peak performance, keep the primer stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the integrity of the formula. It is compatible with most silicone-based and water-based foundations, though it is always recommended to test a small area of your face if you are using new products together. Ensure the cap is closed tightly after every use to prevent the product from drying out. If you notice any changes in texture or scent, discontinue use.
