    My fave setting spray… of course everything I love has to get discontinued.. gosh I just hate it when companies discontinue a best seller. This product is literally what they were known for

    I enjoyed this a lot more than I thought I would as this was the first priming water spray product I ever tried (and was VERY skeptical at the onset). I'm always looking for setting sprays that...

    I got this as a sample and then went and bought the full size primer water. I use this as a setting spray on my over-50 skin. I have combination skin and this does not cause my skin to break out. I...

    I got a little bottle as a sample from Sephora a couple of months ago and use it every now and then. I’m about 3/4 through the small bottle. To me, this is just glorified water. I tried this out...

    This is fine, but I definitely don't think it's worth the price. Granted, I haven't tried using it as a "primer" because that seems ridiculous to me. How is water in spray form supposed to prime...

    I haven't tried this as a traditional primer, instead use it as a setting spray. I still have oily skin at my age along with fine lines and wrinkles and pores and broken capillaries - but I don't...

    This is a very light primer. But I prefer a lotion based or gel based one that does the job better. This primer doesn’t hold makeup very well, if I perspire a little around the nose and use a...

    I honestly didn’t think I’d like this but I do. It’s light and still effective. The only other Smashbox primer I’ve liked so far is the Primerizer, all of the other primers they have do not suit...

    Like other reviewers, I used this more as a setting spray than a primer. It's not the "hairspray for your face" kind of spray but just something to set powder, bring everything together, etc. (I...

    I wanted to make my make up last as I'm not one to do frequent touch ups. However with all the layers of skincare and sunscreen I figured the last thing I needed on my skin was a layer of primer....

    I have dry skin and I don't like silicony or cream based primer, so I opted for this. I didn't expect much at first, but it did wonders with my foundation application the first time I tried it. I...
