MAC Prep + Prime Line Filler, Skin Refined Zone & Transparent Finishing Powder Q&A with Gordon Espinet Vice President Global Makeup Artistry, M·A·C Worldwide.
Q: What are the benefits of using makeup primer?
Using a makeup primer helps to perfect skins appearance as well as ease makeup application. It’s about using the best technology available to give the consumer the results they want, but without the a heavy makeup look. They want a visually perfect editorial finish without the use of additional colour products. At M·A·C, we are extremely focused on our artistry but are still very technology-driven. That is what the Prep + Prime Collection helps to do, in part by decreasing the need for additional color resulting in a more natural effect.
How To Apply Mineral Makeup by Gordon Espinet VP Global Makeup Artistry MAC Worldwide
Here is a quick interview with Gordon Espinet VP Global Makeup Artistry MAC Worldwide, on Mineral Makeup 101 and on how to apply:
Q: Why is mineral makeup such a huge trend right now?
A: For a long time, women have wanted an alternative to the heavy powders and foundations that are on the market. They want their skin to be flawless but not made up and mineral products fit that need. We of course still have plenty of customers who cannot live without their full coverage, but that is why M·A·C is the makeup authority, we have something for everyone. It’s about having choices.
Q: Do you apply mineral makeup differently than non-mineral makeup?
A: Mineral makeup is no different than any other makeup when it comes to application techniques. The difference is in the final look. Mineral makeup provides a more natural appearance and always looks perfectly applied. As with all makeup, be sure that you choose the correct colours and begin with less product as it is easier to add product than it is to remove excess.
