After finally breaking up with MAC's P+P SPF 50 primer -- the original formulation was HG for me, but the new one is yucko -- I fell in love with the pink Radiance. Fills pores, prevents...

I think this is a wonderful product ! It lubricates well and after application you get a nice glow. You don't need much product to apply it over the whole face. The make up really lasts longer! ...

This was like putting Crisco with pink glitter on my face. My foundation looked horrible over this. I looked like I hadn't showered in a week...so greasy and gross.
