DIY Primer Potion with a Click Pen Applicator

Products used:
Mary Kay Tinted Moisturizer
Sally Hansen Airbrush Makeup
Mac concealer
Image Essentials Body Butter
Clicky Applicator Pen or small jar( I prefer using the clicky pen because this insures that your product will stay fresher for longer :D )
You only really need your favorite or leftover foundation or concealer,and a body butter you don't have to use the exact products I'm using. Just remember to use equal amounts, of body butter to foundation ratio. I am using body butter because of it's thickness it will adhear better on the skin than lotion.ALSO! Another really good reason to make your own is because you can match YOUR skin color, whereas other brand names only come in a light color and can look akward on darker skin tones.

Watch my lipgloss tutorial for the link to buy the clicky pens!

I was not paid for this or influenced by any company to feature these items.
Also this is based off of Enkore's decanting Urban Decay Primer Potion, he used the same clicky pens! So I used that for my DIY potion, thanks for the info Koren!

I have a suggestion, how about trying to mix inside of a small plastic bag. When done, you can cut the corner, and squirt it into the pen...

@mamamozzi yea I could've done that too lol but I was all out of baggies :3

hi i think it's a great idea to use the click pen. I have thought to re-use this when making gloss. I have taken off the brush part, but was unable to load my gloss into the chamber...because the clicker windy sppringy thing was all the way wound down towards the brush tip making the tube no longer have a chamber. How did you get the clicker wound up again??? TY!!!

@hipretty Actually, lol. I assumed that I could do that, I didn't see until afterwards that I couldn't reuse it. Which was a bummer.

where did you get the click pen?

@feliciajuly thanks for watching!! I myself was looking for a cheaper alternative when I started doing this, Urban Decay wants like $30 for thier primer potion and Too Faced insurance is $17 for thier tube, and I love makeup and everything, but I just wasn't willing to pay that price when there are perfectly good ( better and cheaper!) alternatives.

Ok...that is really clever!!!! I like how you use the click pen idea rather than a jar. I'm going to try this because I fell like they always charge so much for the brand name stuff. Thank you for sharing such a great and economical idea :)))
