NYX PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP Marshmellow Smoothing Primer — Vegan Face Primer, Silicone-Free, Lightweight Blur (30 mL)

NYX PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP Marshmellow Smoothing Primer is a silicone-free, 100% vegan face primer that smooths skin, blurs texture, and extends makeup wear with ten visible skin benefits.

Designed to create a soft, even canvas, this primer uses marshmallow root extract in a lightweight, non-comedogenic formula to help makeup apply more evenly and last longer. Free from silicones and fully vegan, it’s dermatologist-tested and part of NYX’s cruelty-free lineup. The primer’s texture mimics a marshmallow-like softness that visibly reduces the look of pores, fine lines, and uneven areas without a heavy or greasy finish.

How does this primer improve makeup application?

The Marshmellow Smoothing Primer fills in fine texture and creates a uniform surface so foundation, concealer, and powders glide on more smoothly. By blurring imperfections and evening skin tone, it helps color products blend effortlessly and appear more true-to-shade under different lighting.

• Smooths and softens skin texture for easier foundation glide
• Minimizes appearance of pores and fine lines for a refined finish
• Creates a soft-focus base that enhances color payoff and blending
• Lightweight feel avoids pilling with other complexion products

What are the key skin benefits and active ingredients?

The primer delivers ten cosmetic benefits—from hydration to blurring—without silicones. Its standout ingredient, marshmallow root extract, contributes antioxidant-rich hydration and a cushiony texture that helps soothe and prime the surface of the skin.

• Infused with marshmallow root extract for softness and soothing
• Hydrates and evens tone while helping to blur lines and texture
• Non-comedogenic formula that won’t clog pores or feel heavy
• Dermatologist-tested and certified cruelty-free by PETA

Will this primer work for different skin types and finishes?

Yes—its lightweight, non-greasy texture suits normal, dry, combination, and oily skin when used appropriately. It offers a soft-focus finish that can be layered: wear alone for a natural blurred effect or under foundation for longer-lasting coverage.

• Dry skin: provides gentle hydration and a smoother base
• Oily skin: minimizes texture without adding excess shine
• Combination skin: balances hydration and blurring where needed
• Use alone or with foundation depending on desired coverage

How do I apply the Marshmellow Smoothing Primer for best results?

Apply a pea-sized amount to cleansed, moisturized skin and gently smooth across the face, focusing on areas with larger pores or fine lines. Allow the primer to set for about 30–60 seconds before layering foundation or concealer to prevent product pilling and ensure even wear.

• Start with clean, moisturized skin for a smooth base
• Use a small amount and blend with fingertips or a brush
• Wait briefly for primer to set before applying makeup
• Reapply lightly to targeted areas for longer wear during the day

Who is this for: The NYX PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP Marshmellow Smoothing Primer is ideal for anyone seeking a silicone-free, vegan primer that reduces visible texture and improves makeup longevity. It suits makeup lovers who want a soft-focus finish without heavy silicones, those with sensitive or breakout-prone skin preferring non-comedogenic formulas, and people building a cruelty-free makeup routine. Pair it with NYX foundations, concealers, and setting sprays for a complete complexion system that enhances color consistency and wear time.
