Extra Glow Serum, Merit
While this is technically a serum, and works just fine as such, I Merit’s Great Skin serum more as a primer. I apply two pumps every morning (maybe 1 on the swampiest days of summer) immediately prior to my moisturizer and my beloved The Minimalist stick.
If I skip this step, my makeup doesn’t go on nicely, and it also helps give my skin a healthy glow without looking shiny.
I’ve always been pretty fickle with makeup and skincare, but I’ve been through many bottles of this one.
