    I really like this primer. I use it with Bare Minerals Matte foundation and I did notice my skin looks and feels smoother. I don't have any blemishes or overly dry areas so I guess i don't totally...

    There is nothing great about this primer. It does it's job decently and feels very smooth, with no odor. Although, it makes me extra oily throughout the day (i have combination skin). I personally...

    It doesn't smooth out pores that well, but it glides on silky smooth and when combined with be mineral makeup it leaves your skin perfectly velvety. It definitely helps you use less mineral makeup...

    This product did nothing for me. A few weeks ago, I thought it broke me out so I stopped using it. Today I tried it again cos my skin seems better. But on the way to work, I peeped at the rearview...

    This might work well for bare escentual mineral foundation only, but don't even attempt it with liquid foundation!! It just slides off with the foundation and smells like industrial wax, Yuck
