I really have enjoyed the Elf Tone Adjusting Primer. I bought it due to the hype it seems to get. Whilst it doesn't necessarily adjust the tone of my skin, it does provide a great base for makeup...

I’ve used this and other ELF primers for over a year now. It gets the job done, and it feels good on my skin. My pores are filled in and I don’t break out, even with my acne prone skin. I’m also...

Purchased the green one to see if it would create a more even tone, I did not notice a difference in my red areas such as nose and blemish spots. Product has a silicone texture, does smooth skin a...

It's OK as a primer but I wouldn't say it tones down redness that much, especially when compared with its Smashbox equivalent. And the amount of it in the bottle is ridiculously small - the...

For me this didn't work. I found that my redness was toned a little bit but I've used other tone adjusting primers that work a lot better. It also didn't help my makeup last, and the amount of...

This is my go-to primer. I have a lot of redness and I try really hard to cover as much of it up as possible. ELF is the best thing I have found at a drugstore. If I use a generous amount, there's...

This primer is okay. Remember, you only need a very small amount for the entire face. This, unfortunately, does nothing to correct redness. It's just like their mineral infused primer. It works as...

This primer is just decent if worn alone, however, when combined with makeup over it, forget it. It doesn't prolong wear of foundation, if anything, it makes it fade more quickly. It is too wet and...

This is an OK primer that works much like any other silicone-based primer. It's inexpensive, though the packaging makes you think you're getting more than you are. (It's one of those tube within a...

This is one of those primers that people tend to pile on and use way too much because it's tinted. If it were hydrating then a lot of it would soak into your skin, but the silicone is pretty high...

This product is good for a cheap primer. I honestly don't see how it is tone adjusting though, it basically does the same thing as the clear one, except it's green. The packaging looks good however...

Doesn't do its job. I can't tell if the primer works or not. Just leaves my skin feeling oily. :( the green does absolutely nothing for redness.

It's a decent primer but not the best. I love how it neutralizes the oil on my skin to keep my foundation looking matte. The tone adjusting green does a very minimal job at reducing redness. After...
