I was so excited to find this on sale because I'd heard such good things about it. My skin is extremely reactive to silicones ie. I break out like a mother but this got my attention as a waterbased...

I was really disappointed with this. I've seen so many good reviews about it and maybe I'm doing something wrong, or it's my skin or something, but I just cannot get this to work at all. It doesn't...

This is a very nice primer. I found it when I was searching for a dupe for the Hourglass primer, because my gosh that stuff is expensive. I wouldn't say that Angel Veil is an exact dupe, but it is...
