Primer is a hotly debated product in the beauty community, but if you've got a specific look you're trying to achieve, we're of the opinion that primer can only help in that quest. Whether you want to create a more matte look or something that's dewy and glowing, primer can help you in your goal. If you're curious about primers, these 12 options are all $25 or less.

There are primers that are meant to help diminish the look of pores and ones that add some extra hydration if you have dry skin. Plus, there are also primers that have SPF and primers that act as setting spray, which is helpful if you're wearing makeup and a mask (we should all be wearing masks!).
