    This rating needs to be higher. I got it as a sample and it works awesome. Probably best primer I've used. It actually has me using foundation again after a long hiatus because it leaves my skin so...

    This was a total letdown for me. I washed my face and did my usual moisturization ritual before I use primer, and apply my makeup. So I apply a very small amount and start to do some colour...

    This is the most useless primer I have ever used! Doesn't make pores look smaller and it definitely does not stop oil. Dries shiny so that foundation looks odd. I got a sample of this with a MAC...

    For 31 dollars plus tax this did not do it for me. The product itself is nice and smooth and it feels nice on the skin but i feel like it did nothing for me. It has a shimmery sheen to it so im...

    Soooooooo wish I had read the reviews before purchasing. I have tried this product so many ways and the result is the same - oil slick!!! I just don't get the hype over this.
