Hello Everybody, Today I’ll be reviewing Meilin Gel Based Primer. It is the cheapest primer in India. This Gel Based Primer is great for people with oily, normal or combination skin.
What is a Primer? You might have heard the word ‘Primer’ if you went for painting classes. But I’m talking about the cosmetic Primers. Yes! you heard me right!
“A cosmetic primer is a cream or lotion applied before another cosmetic to improve coverage and lengthen the amount of time the cosmetic lasts on the face.” –Wikipedia
Price Rs.450 for 30 ml
Availability: Amazon, Flipkart

My experience with the product:

Meilin is a Taiwan makeup brand and it produces many makeup products and is cost-efficient. I was just window shopping online and this primer caught my attention. I was at first a little hesitant to buy this Primer because I was scared to try face products from brands that are not known, but after I got my hands on this primer, I was in love! literally L-O-V-E!

This Primer is gel-based and very lightweight. When I applied it to my face, my skin felt so soft. I felt like rubbing all day long! (*just kidding*). The primer is absolutely great for its price. It did not break on me so it’s a Yay-Yay product! It doesn’t have a chemical smell (which is great BTW) and has a very light-to-no smell at all. Once you apply it on your face, it blurs out the pores, it reduces the size of the pores. It lasts up to 5 hours, i.e., it keeps your makeup on point till 5 hours, which is great! The only thing I don’t like about this product is that it contains Paraben :(, other than that, for the price it is offered, it is definitely marvelous!
PROS:
- Cost Efficient
- No funny Smell
- Reduces pores
- Lasts up to 5 hours (Great for its price)
CONS:
- Contains Paraben
- Availability
Ratings: 4/5

Rating looks convincing but only thing I found odd is availability. If product is good and customers like it then companies need to make it available in the market
