    Hi! Can this Protective Veil be used overtop of the Blemish Rescue Anti-Redness Primer? Or is the Primer simply, not needed? THANKS!!

    Asked by: rdelp
    Hi rdelp, We think makeup should be fun and you can layer these if you want but please know that both of these offer similar results and neither serve as a foundation. One offers SPF coverage and the other helps reduce redness- depending on what your needs are.
