If you’re looking for “tight, smooth, wrinkle-free airbrushed skin,” you’ve come to the right place: one beauty expert is touting the benefits of a “great” primer that she swears “blurs all your fine lines.”

Ready to hear more? Of course you are!

The primer itself is unique in that it is described as lightweight, with just a tint of color corrector, and its leaves “not a single line or pore” in its wake. If you aren’t familiar with primers, this is your lucky day: they’re a game changer. A quality primer smoothens your skin, blurs texture, and preps it for makeup like concealer and foundation, allowing these formulas to go on more smoothly and stay in place for longer.

And if you’re not a huge fan of foundation or wear it only on occasion, you can still get in on the benefits of primer because it can make your skin look flawless even without makeup.

Here’s what you need to know about this powerful primer, which gets Beauty Expert Daniella Britt’s seal of approval, as well as how to apply it.

Peter Thomas Roth Instant FIRMx® No-Filter Primer ($42)

Peter Thomas Roth Instant FIRMx® No-Filter Primer is Britt’s choice for primer that leaves an absolutely flawless finish to skin. This primer is different from many others. Its ingredients include a blend of silicates and seaweed extract for tightening, and botanical extracts that smoothen and soften the skin. It’s ideal for all skin types and works very well on shine-prone skin that could use a little mattification.

Unlike many other primers, this pick has an application method that’s a little out of the box. Instead of simply applying it, waiting for a few seconds, and following up with makeup, it is recommended that you apply it in light layers and then wait for about seven minutes. During this time, you should remain expressionless to prevent the primer from cracking. After seven minutes, your texture should appear blurred and your skin should look smooth and prepped for makeup — or for your day.
