    I like this primer for the winter when my skin gets dry. It's so affordable and does the job. I wear this underneath my mattifying foundations and it keeps my makeup in place and doesn't make it...

    It's an OK primer but it doesn't really feel hydrating. It feels more like silicone and it makes my face itchy after wearing it for more than 5 hours. Also, the packaging sucks because you can't...

    I found this a bit greasy at the beginning, but if you only use one drop, this works really well. I would only recommend this for people that have a really dry skin, if you're oily at all this...

    GREASY. Love the blemish control primer, but this formula is too oily.

    Goes on very thick and doesn’t allow for my makeup to blend in or stick, too much silicone to be a good buy.

    Feels nice when applied but doesn’t make my makeup stay any longer. Feels greasy I feel my foundation is slipping around over this product. I don’t like the smell of it.

    This was moisturizing, if a little oily, but I think it made me break out. This is probably better for drier skin types.

    No sure why I got it, but as an oily girl, I can only use this almost as a moisturizer. I’ve been experimenting with it under my eyes as a concealer primer. But might have to donate it to a dry...

    This is a pretty good primer for the price! Definitely good for dry skin as it can feel a little greasy/silicone-y. But goes on smooth and helps with fine lines. I am prone to break outs and this...
