I am currently using a sample that I got with my Sephora order. I am not quite sure if I actually *need* this item in my makeup regimen. I used a tiny bit and smoothed it all over my face before...

I never really thought that a primer would be "necessary"-- I like the idea of a quick and simple makeup routine, who wants to add to it? When I got a sample of this with a recent Sephora purchase,...

I received this as a free sample after I bought Laura Gellar's Spackle. Well, the Spackle is going back and that Slate is staying! I love how it feels like a primer and not just another...

Crap product! Waste of money! It balls up and flakes all over your face! leaves nasty flaky white stuff every where. It dosen't even do anything for your makeup either.

Love that this product almost has a velvet/powder finish. It glides on a little goes a long way and I double love that it is one of the few primers that can be used on the eyelids. I have oily lids...

I received a sample of this with my Ferris/Sloane Lip Gloss purchase. Tarte's Primer Clean Slate, or, as I like to call it, "Face Therapy" is fantastic! I love the fact that it is NOT tinted! ...

When I first tried it, I didn't think I'd applied it evenly; however, when I went to touch up certain areas of my face, the product began to slough off in my hand like fluffy bits of dandruff. I...

I bought this largely because of the positive reviews it got here, but I have to say I'm pretty disappointed. I like trying lots of different products; I'd been using Philosophy's The Present, but...

I really wanted to like this. I liked it when it first went on my face, but by mid-morning my face was burning & red so something in this really irritated my combination skin. Ah well.

This is thicker than Smashbox's foundation primer, but otherwise they are similar (except Tarte's is 3 bucks cheaper). I used this this morning (it was a sample packet from sephora) for the first...

This is the first primer I've ever tried. Since there's silicone in it, only a tiny bit will make a smooth surface on your skin. It's good if you wear liquid foundation. Pretty pricey.
