I like the creamy consistency and it is very hydrating. SPF is always good too. But it was like it created a barrier between my skin and my foundation... it made my foundation look very unnatural...

Okay, this primer smells like something you use to clear a clogged drain but put me firmly in the "it works for me" camp. I have been using a sample of this primer for a couple of weeks and during...

This is good stuff. I wouldn't personally buy it again because it's too much like a moisturizer, and I already have mine picked out. But I'm sure it would be wonderful for someone with dry skin....

Stila is almost committing fraud by calling this a primer. It should be called sunscreen. It leaves a white cast like a sunscreen and makes my skin look oily like a sunscreen. It doesn't...

I tried this in the store and I have to say that my initial expectations were high- maybe it is because the lights in Sephora are always turned on and so the products "warm up" a little, but I...
