    So, I don't hate this product. I mean, I wouldn't pay $20something dollars for it but it's actually not half bad. I got two tubes because they are now discontinued. I paid $15 for two tubes and I...

    Pure garbage. Actually increases your oil production and wreaks havoc on your face make-up. Please believe the other reviews (I didn't at first!) and stay away from this product. Reformulated or...

    This crap made me break out. I then tried the Blemish Ready primer which was worse and because of these two products, a terrible acne snowball is in effect and I am still trying to clear the break...

    This primer is terrible, it feels like glue and has a funny smell. Once applied and dries it feels like your face as gone all tight. As soon as you apply foundation (any foundation I must add) the...

    I'm trying to present a balanced opinion here, although my gut says it's a 2 lippy product. It's white and sticky... It sometimes leaves immovable white dots on your face if you don't rub it in...

    This product was my first primer and has given the worst impression of primers that I refused to buy any for the last few years. It felt like a mask, tight and flaked off the skin. I thought my...

    First of all, this is a water-based primer and thus it'll get along only with water-based foundations, otherwise the different formulations will fight each other and as you know oil is hydrophobic...
