When the sunscreen has dried, I use one small squirt of the primer and then my foundation. <br /><br />I have the original Light Diffusing Primer which is light pink pearls.

I still have about half a bottle of the original Météorites primer but I'll save that one for winter (at Marcus' suggestion :-) ) and use this new one now and throughout the summer. For those of you who are unfamiliar with Guerlain's primers, they are like Météorites in that they do Eileenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01591893495803781535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1905173831662671321.post-1049803781767514972013-05-03T21:10:18.959-04:002013-05-03T21:10:18.959-04:00Wwendalynne, roared at your comment.
