Prime Time: Kat Von D Lock It Hydrating Primer

I love a good matte finish but this summer I’ve been really craving a dewy finish. But it’s hard creating that lit from within glow without looking like a grease ball.

Luckily, I’ve come across this KVD primer which claims to deliver hydration and a poreless soft finish for foundation to glide on.
