    I tried this out after reading so many rave reviews here. I use the Smashbox 15 hour foundation every day, and usually use the Urban Decay Pore Perfecting Primer underneath, which isn't...

    I've been using this for a couple weeks and I can't seem to make it work for me. Since starting a new cleansing routine, the pores on my nose are free of clusters and wide open for the receiving. I...

    Got a sample of this in my Smashbox Studio Skin foundation box. Was excited to try it underneath the foundation because the foundation doesn't smooth over pores like I'd prefer. I didn't really...

    I just purchased this during the Sephora VIB sale. I notice a slight difference when i apply makeup now- my foundation sticks better and stays longer and a little bit goes a long way. However, it...

    It's good stuff but way overpriced for what it is. There are so many great primers at lower price points. No need to buy this one.

    I love this primer! My skin is very oily in the tzone but parched on my cheeks and under the eyes. This hides my pores, keeps me matte but isn't too dry for my dry zones. My makeup lasts forever...

    I'm sorely disappointed by this primer. I absolutely love the way it feels and how it makes my skin look in terms of smoothing out texture and filling in pores- but for some reason it makes my make...

    It does help hold my makeup in place very well. There is no loss of foundation or anything. The silicone feel is nice and rubs on very smoothly. I do think that it is overpriced for what it does....
