    I bought this Primer when I ran out of my Smashbox one and needed a cheaper one until I could get round to buying it again. And I fell in love with it! I have oily/combination and acne prone skin...

    I have oily skin so I don't need a lot of "hydration," but I received this in my elf Beauty Bundle so I figured why not try? It did not break me out (I was a little apprehensive coz usually...

    Sooo, I think they changed the formula because I just bought this primer but mine is a light blue color. It says: "Fills in fine lines and moisturizes with Vitamins A, C, & E. This doesn't have any...

    I didn't see much hydration on my dry skin and that was on top of moisturizer. It also didn't do anything for smoothing out my skin or longevity for cosmetics. The deal breaker is the strong,...

    The only redeeming factor in this product is the packaging! I really wanted to like this face primer but it didn't work for me at all. It smells awful and chemicle-like, it dried out my skin,...

    I purchased this and immediately noticed a rancid smell. I bought another thinking that I got a dud, but the second one smelled the same. The reason I bought this was because Paula's Choice raved...

    In my search for a primer to hydrate the dryer parts of my face, I came across this primer. It comes in a pump which is nice, I guess. While it is more hydrating than the other primer I was using,...

    $6 for a bottle of primer sounds pretty decent, doesn't it? Well..yeah, right until we realize that because you only get a half ounce, it actually comes out at $12/ounce - more expensive...

    I really wanted to like this just as much as the Hourglass #28 but it's just not as good. This one is thicker and even when I use half a pump and let it set, it still makes my foundation oxidize....

    For winter-dry skin, this primer is awesome!! I have combination skin, but in the winter the dry is drier and the oily gets a little oilier. I have found this primer to work great at adding a...
