    I am pretty happy with OC Eight as my primer but I still need more oil control! I got this in Deep which is way too light for me- I need to pile on some extra foundation to get my color back...

    I had VERY high hopes for this. After reviewing the comments below, I thought this would be my HG, keeping my oily t-zone in check and my makeup flawless from application to removal. It does not....

    I've tried this product in MEDIUM and DEEP. Both are nice, although the DEEP seemed to be a little less obvious on my MMM/CCC complexion. (FYI: I'm currently using Alima's W5, but may switch...

    This is actually my first mineral primer to ever try and I am pretty pleased with the results. Face looks much more matte during the day and my make up last a lot longer w/out the blots which is...

    I love the primer powder and it works wonders for me!! I have oily skin and once you apply this primer your skin will be oil-free for hours (just a touch-up on nose) and I feel great! Too bad the...

    I have to echo the raves below -- this primer is great! Before Alima introduced this primer, I was wearing their Satin Matte Foundation over just moisturizer or sometimes over MAC Prep + Prime. ...
