    Tried this while I was pregnant. I normally use thier regular Prime Time product, and due to my hormones at the time, the regular Prime Time was making me break out. So I tried the oil control,...

    Although I haven't tried any other face primers, I know I don't like this one. I followed the instructions - put on face and allow to dry. However when I used my bobbi brown pressed powder over...

    The man working in BE gave me a large sample of this when I told him the original did not work well because of my T-zone. I used this and was horrified by what it did. It would create a layer on...

    I don't get the hate for this primer. It does exactly what I want it to do, which is control oil (my face, in the places it's oily, is VERY oily) and keep my makeup from sliding off or settling...

    I found this to be horrible, it drys way to quickly and literally flakes off when you apply makeup on top of it.

    The sales woman in Sephora recommended this to me. Unfortunately, it was really disapointing. The product takes 5 minutes to dry when you apply. It made my skin break out (especially in the t-zone)...

    After going through so many primers, this is the one that worked for my acne-prone, very oily and sensitive skin. I think it is because of the fact that it does not have any silicones in it. I let...

    Has a weird texture, and only one pump applied to my face causes it to flake off in areas that are dry (E.g. cheeks) the original prime time is preferred over this one. Does not control oil in any...

    this product seems to work fine if it's used the right way. You need to wait no longer than 1 min after applying to put your foundation. Then don' rub your face with the foundation or any other...

    This primer is terrible! First of all, the texture is gross. It is all gummy and slippery feeling. It did nothing for oil control on my t-zone. I'm not extremely oily, just moderately oily and I...

    This is the only primer that controls my oily t-zone. It really is ONLY for oily skin. If I put it on my drier cheeks it will flake off like other reviewers have said.

    Awful. The problem is that it has an awkward dry down time- it finishes very gummy and tends to make anything you put on top of it pill up and ball off your face leading to an uneven and splotchy...
