Hi people. Remember in my last post I said I was going to write more about how I used aloe Vera for my bride, Ronke? Here's the full gist.
I lost my eye primer (more like it was stolen) and Ronke's wedding was impromptu, so I needed a quick fix. I decided to do a research online about homemade primers.
I discovered a lot of articles about Aloe Vera mixed with concealer and moisturizer. I found this particular one that talked about using aloe Vera alone as a face primer. I tried this on my face after cleansing, toning and moisturizing, and the effect was surprising.
It felt like using a silicone based, mattifying primer only this one was devoid of chemicals and didn't make my face feel dry and taught but just nicely matte.
I decided to try it on Ronke and I did, I loved the result. She initially wanted a touch up before reception but later realized it was absolutely unnecessary.
Of course I'm still going to be using my store bought eye and face primers but I recommend this to anyone who has sensitive or acne prone skin and is looking for a natural fix.
That's it for now.
Till next time,
Stay beeyoutiful!

i used aloevera mixed with lemonlite oil vanishing moisturizer (available at Bee's Signatures) and a little bit of black opal cocealer as an eye primer for Ronke.
