    I have this primer in the neutralizing shade. It covers nearly all of my redness and discoloration to the point where I don't need foundation or even concealer (other than under my eyes). It has a...

    This product wasn't that great to be honest. I didn't find it lasted long both in the bottle or on my skin. My make up didn't stay on longer so I def think there are better primers on the market...

    This is the first primer I've used and bought it because of favourable reviews here and on other sites. I've been wearing it over serum and sunscreen this summer (no foundation, and topped off with...

    I've worn this primer everyday over my sunscreen for the past couple of weeks. The performance has been thoroughly mediocre. This feels nice and velvety when it goes on, but that's about the only...

    When I first used it, I didn't let it dry completely and thus, the primer sort of wiped away when I applied foundation. I followed another reviewer's suggestion and let it dry completely (3-5...

    This is the best primer ive tried. Its very light and instantly makes skin look better. Doesn't cause breakouts like Mac or Smashbox did. Feels smooth and soft. The pump is kinda iffy, sometimes I...

    Over all, this primer is ok. nothing more... It definately helps the fondation staying in place and does not accentuates my acne, but do not control the oily texture of my skin at all. I...

    A lovely every day primer. Really good for my combination skin! It isn't oily, so it doesn't break me out, but at the same time it isn't drying. So perfect for me. Leaves my skin soft and...

    Good stuff. Reduces the appearance of large pores. Apply prime time and wait a little while before applying the bare minerals makeup, that's what I do and am pretty pleased.

    I was so worried about using this on my sensitive, acne prone skin but I am glad I did! The foundation works wonderfully with it and is perfect for dry, flaky spots or oily zones. It has the...

    I got this as a sample from a Sephora purchase and it goes a long way. I love the velvety, matte finish after application. Good oil control too. But when I apply foundation, it somewhat falls off....

    This is my favourite primer. Odourless, easy consistency to work with. The packaging is terrible - why not do a bigger version of the trial size? I've also used Clarins primer and BE...

    First and so far only primer I've used. It's pretty good, doesn't make me break out and helps keep the makeup on. The only bad thing is that it doesn't hide my big pores.
