    I normally use Clinique super primer which I've been quite happy with, but thought I'd give this a go to help cover redness from acne. You need to give this a good shake as the product does...

    This is a great drugstore alternative to most high end primers at half the price. I have the clear version and it did what I wanted - make foundation look smooth and last all day with no breakouts....

    I purchased this product at Ulta for $12.99 in the clear formula and after testing it out today I would have to say I really do love this primer!! I have pretty oily skin and if I don't use any...

    To me, this is performs exactly the same as the ELF version but a much better container (I prefer the tube vs. ELF's pump which you NEVER know when you are out) However, w/ this tube, be sure you...

    This review is for the clear one. So I actually didn't care about the Smashbox primer but I had read raves about this on Ulta's website and it doesn't cost much. The texture is great. One of the...

    Made me feel like i've applied on really thick moisturizer. Don't like how it feels on my fingers(while applying it) nor my face. Still did its job but barely. Doesn't last long.

    I adore this product. I purchased the clear one. It fills in all my pores and creates a smooth surface for my foundation. I would say its a dupe for the Smashbox Photo Finish primer which I usually...

    My skin is very picky about primers. It absolutely hated the Smashbox Photo Finish Primer. It gave me so many blemishes, I had to get rid of it. Because of that experience I completely swore off...

    Primers are one of those products, like heat protectants, that are super hard to judge because you're never quite sure how much of a difference they're making. Sometimes you'll see a difference and...

    I thought the primer would be thicker but its kinda watery and melts softly into the skin. The primer contains silicon so you have to powder and use a makeup setting spray if you want your makeup...

    I recently bought the NYX photo loving primer in the shade "Clear". My first impression was that it did make the skin noticeably softer. I have typically dry skin and it did improve the application...

    Ugh. I have yet to find a decent priced primer I like. This feels really weird, like silicone-y and when applied to the face, the green color dissipates and does nothing to correct the redness on...
