    I got a sample from nordstrom the other day. I love how it seperates my moisturizer and my foundation. Usually my face looks shiny without the primer, and my foundation stays there for the...

    I've tried this for about 2 to 3 weeks before I decided to return it back. It made my foundation stays longer maybe for 4 hours as I have an oily skin. Other than that, it caused lots of bumps on...

    Not very impressed with this primer. Price bit steep but doesn't make any big different. My T-zone still gets greasy after couple hours and it smells funny too. Still searching for my HG primer.

    I have never considered using foundation primer before and probably never would have; except that I received a deluxe sample with another LM purchase. While the ingredient list looked impressive,...

    I was suprised and disapointed to hear such bad reviews about this primer because I've had some very good results with it. My skin is pretty normal all over and this makes my make-up smooth on...

    Unnecessary junk, far too much to pay for a product that won't do anything that a good moisturizer should be doing.

    I did not like this product. It made my face all red, blotchy and itchy. Will never buy again. Very disappointed.

    Don't understand the hype on this one.<p> This primer does nothing for me, but leaves a extra layer of stuff on my skin. To be honest, I think my makeup slides off quicker with it on. I'm not...

    I got a generous sample from the SA at the Laura Mercier counter. I used it under my regular regime for one week. This is a terrible primer - it felt like a light moisturizer. The fragrance is...

    This primer does a better job than a moisturizer to help foundation glide on the skin. It is lightweight and leaves my skin feeling fresh and clean, not greasy or slippery in a gross way. I can...

    I decided to try some of the Oil-Free foundation, and was told this makes the application so much better. I have oily skin and this made the foundation slide off. It was simply awful.

    This didn't do anything for me. I thought it would help it last longer and go on smoother, but it did nothing except make me a little oilier than usual. :(

    I use this primer on myself everyday. I find it keeps my skin soft and gives a slightly mattifying effect. I couldn't be without it!
