I purchased this because I was having trouble applying my concealer and foundation. My concealer was settling in fine lines, and foundation was just not gliding on well. This helps with that! ...

I bought this for $17.40 which is pretty cheap when you think about the prices of cosmetics in Australia. I was really excited to try it and I loved it at first, it was soo smooth on my face but...

I really love this primer, especially for the price. It is pretty much an exact dupe for Smashbox's. I have combo skin and it kept my oil at bay all day, except for a few touch ups on my nose...

This is a really good alternative to Smashbox Photo Ready. It doesn't do much for oil control, but the consistency is pretty much identical, and it makes my skin so smooth and perfectly prepped for...

For the price of the primer I would repurchase, however, it wouldn't be my first choice because with my oily skin I feel like another primer would do a better job of keeping my oil under control....

I tried the illuminating version first but it was too glittery for use all over my face. So I decided to try the clear version, and I'm very happy with it. All I wanted out of a primer was...

For the price that you pay, the results are expected. Primer is probably something that you should definitely spend a little more money on because that is pretty much what holds your look all...

I got this primer in the clear option, and it's a silicone-based primer, so I expected it to do something for oil control. However, it didn't. It made my makeup go on smoother, but it didn't help...

It's not my favorite but it's amazing for the price. It'll last me awhile too. It doesn't really make my makeup last longer, but it helps smooth my skin for a flawless finish to my foundation.
