    I don't get what the big deal is. This didn't do anything for me and I tried it as a mask and toner several times and it just didn't do anything. Will not repurchase.

    Easily the best primer I've ever used. I have the Boots own brand version. I apply a thin layer over the big pores on my nose, wait thirty seconds 'til it's dried, whisk away any powdery excess,...

    When I did makeup professionally for people, I used to use this all the time. I originally had two primers--one from Laura Mercier and the other from Smashbox. Good old fashioned, CHEAP Milk of...

    I use this around my nose, forehead, and chin to make the shine on my face go away. It works the entire day. I don't even need to do a touch up with powder later on in the day. I dilute it one...

    I have only used this (so far) as a primer and it's fantastic for me. I'm really fair skinned, so I use it straight from the bottle since it doesn't show after applying makeup. I just dab it on...

    I tried to use this as a primer, and kept going back to it to see if it would control oil. I wanted to like it but it did nothing for my oily skin, I tossed it.

    After 2 days of this as a primer, I'm impressed. At 9PM tonight, I still had makeup on. And I'm not sure if it's the MoM or my new cleansing routine, but my rosacea is improved as well. So far,...
