I’ve never been much good at makeup.
“Makeup challenged” is usually the term I use to describe myself.
I wear makeup when I need to, but prefer to go without when I can get away with it. I just don’t feel confident using makeup; I never have. I don’t really trust myself to choose the right colors, and always second guess myself as to which colors are best with my skin tone.
But a few years ago I found Arbonne cosmetics, and became an Independent Consultant. I loved the products, and feel good about using them because of the pure, safe, and beneficial ingredients used in them. And I suddenly fell in love with their makeup. Love the way it makes my skin feel. Love the colors and how good they look on my skin. And how well they treat my skin.
One of my favorite Arbonne products is the makeup primer. I never thought I would need a makeup primer. I thought it was a superfluous product that was only there to help makeup companies entice customers into spending more money. Just a “fluff” item, without a real purpose. But was I wrong! I hate to admit I was wrong, but I do love Arbonne’s Makeup Primer.
It’s a smoothing lotion that glides on under your cosmetics to keep foundation from sliding, eye shadow from creasing, and blush from fading away. It smooths your skin surface and keeps your makeup from settling into your pores. Your makeup stays fresh looking all day.
Makeup primers reduce oil and shine, hydrate the skin, reduces inflammation and redness, and makes your pores appear smaller.
Arbonne’s Makeup Primer glides on to visually reduce fine lines and pores, which creates a smooth surface for your makeup products.
And, as with all Arbonne products, since the ingredients offer such concentrated goodness, only a bit of product is needed and they last a long time. You don’t need to reorder as often!
Here are some of the key points that I love about this product:
- Made with grape seed oil and green tea leaf
- Dermatologist tested
- Ophthalmologist tested
- Minimizes the appearance of skin imperfections, creating a ‘soft focus” effect
- Makes my makeup look great all day – and I work LONG hours!
- Contains hyaluronic spheres to keep my skin hydrated

Here’s some more information from the Arbonne website, all about the company’s beginnings:
The idea to provide skincare products that are unparalleled in quality and effectiveness was developed in Switzerland in 1975, when one man, Petter Mørck, together with a group of leading biochemists, biologists and herbalists, set out to fulfill his vision and founded Arbonne.
Arbonne skincare products, based on botanical principles, came to fruition in the United States in 1980 and are now shared throughout the world by a growing network of Arbonne Independent Consultants. Building on these same founding principles, the product line has since grown to include both inner and outer health and beauty products that are unparalleled in quality, safety, value, benefits and results.
Did I mention that I became an Independent Consultant because of these great products? It made sense to me, since becoming a consultant is the best way to get crazy discounts on the products. You get 35% off everything you buy, and great offers for specials, etc.
The wonderful thing about Arbonne is that it’s not just about great products — it’s also about great people. The Arbonne family is made up of thousands of individuals working to make their dreams come true. Through sales incentives and rewards, travel opportunities, a competitive SuccessPlan and great products, Arbonne offers a unique opportunity that can help make anyone’s vision for the future a reality.
