How to make your own make up primer and also eye primer.. cheap. Can I use any of my lotions that I already have around my house?

gail. I find it interesting that all of a sudden every cosmetic company is making a primer. What they are staying is, our moisturizer isn't good enough, our foundation isn't good enough, our finishing powder isn't good enough, so now, we have ANOTHER product that really is good enough to sell you. Count the number of products you use, it is amazing. If you use the right foundation for your skin, oily or dry, simply using powder should do the trick. For your eyeshadow, you might want to try a thin layer of cream concealer. To keep your lipstick from feathering, use finishing powder with a soft brush. My mom and aunt looked beautiful and they didn't use nearly the amount of products we do. Invest in good cosmetic brushes instead. One exception, L'Oreal mascara with primer really makes a huge difference.
