    The best way to describe this primer in one word is: disgusting. 1) The container is completely unhygienic. You stick your fingers in a little jar to get the product out. 2) the consistency of the...

    I have tried many primers and this one is at the top. It is long wearing and looks smooth under my makeup. Also, smooths out my skin if I wear it alone... I am definitely going to purchase this again.

    I simply love this product!! I tend to get oily around my nose and sometimes in my t zone and this product controls all the oil. I can't say that its a mattifying gel because I do get oily after a...

    I'm not very in love with this primer. It's good for hiding your pores, but it doesn't control my oil and my makeup stays the same time with/without this primer.

    This does pretty amazing things for smoothing my fine lines and holding my makeup on longer. But the packaging is less than desirable, consistency of this balm is weird and spongey and it may be...

    I do not understand the hype of this primer at all. It's very sticky and gives a weird, thick texture under liquid foundation. It's not hydrating and it's quite drying. The packaging is also really...

    Compared to other primers, you can't go wrong with this price and it's so convenient to buy since I get it at my local drug store which are basically on every corner. Gives my skin a perfect finish...

    For a drugstore brand primer, L'Oreal did a pretty good job with this. This primer is unique because it's more like a balm, whereas other primers are like a gel or a cream or lotion. It gives me...
