Worst Primer Ever. I had been using the original prior to this and was happy, but I decided since I have oily skin and visible pores that I would try the oil control formula. I was so excited to...

Another oil-control primer that I wanted to love, but ended up not living up to what it's supposed to do. Unfortunately, this primer doesn't really help to control my oilies - an hour after...

This stuff doesn't control oil for me and it kinds of balls up. I used very little and sadly it still does not work. I prefer the orginal.

I seemed to have the same problem as many others have with this primer. It pills on the skin during application, some say it's due to moisturizer not being sunk in all the way, but it does this to...

They kind of disappointed me with this product. It doesn't seem to keep the oil away any better than the original Prime Time. There's just nothing special about it.
