I am always looking for new matte primers as I like to keep my oils at bay for as long as I can. I only apply primer to my T zone as that is where my oils produce, with my chin being the oiliest...

I have read the reviews on how this product doesn’t prevent shine and it separates foundations but I decided to buy it and try it anyway. What I didn’t expect was the runny gel like texture but...

I find this doesn’t make my makeup last. My skin still gets oily an hour or two after putting it on. I do like that it makes my skin feel nice and soft, and it doesn’t give me acne. I wouldn’t buy...

Gave this a shot despite the horrible reviews. I should have paid attention to them. What a terrible product. After 20 mins of applying makeup I am an oily mess.

I’m genuinely surprised to see such negative reviews of this! I personally really like it. It’s a standard clear silicone primer that makes your skin feel really smooth. I find foundation applies...

This did absolutely nothing. I'm a big fan of using a new product on half of my face so that I can compare any differences and there was no difference at all. However, I really like Nyx BB cream...

My skin isn't very oily at the worst of times so from my point of view this isn't all that bad. It feels nice on the skin, like velvety feeling upon first application. However, after it's been on...

This is not a terrible product in my opinion, but not great either. I didn't see any real mattifying results. I like the texture (smooth, silicone) and it didn't clog my pores. I don't think it...

As a primer it´s ok, it is silicone-y so it makes the face smooth making foundation application easy and prevents it from settling into lines. A small amount of product goes a long way as well...

The packaging is fine, and that's the nicest thing I can say about this product. It didn't fill in the large pores around my nose in the least. My t-zone got oilier FASTER with this on - the...

It is an ok primer. Works very well with the infallible foundation by loral L'oreal but it is isn't a shine killer you still have to blot about four hours after. Then again my skin is Very oily....

This was a disappointment! It claims to eliminate the look of oil and shine, but it does not of that. In fact, in makes my makeup slip and slide even worse than if I wear to wear no primer at all....
