    This was the first product to do the unthinkable - it made me break out with small blemishes and bumps. (How??? I still can't figure out why an oil-free product would make my skin react that...

    This was the first primer I ever used. It's average, nothing to great. I don't know about the oil-free claim, because frankly, it didn't do nothing to control oil. Great packaging but way too...

    This product is not a great primer for makeup. Primers are meant to allow the skin added moisture and to give the skin a smooth surface so that makeup will glide on easily and look better and...

    Having oily skin I though that this primer would actually help to control oil. While it did not cause any irritation or breakouts, I just did not see any added benefit. Just added a step to my...
