    LOVE this!! I use it everyday with Dermalogica's Oil Control Lotion and have finally been able to put away my oil blotting papers. I will say though that I would not wear it alone. It definitely...

    only a tiny drop controls the oil and protects my skin from all the nastiness floating around manhattan. it keeps my makeup from running even in the grossest most humid weather (i use bareminerals)...

    I bought this a week ago from a Sephora store. I love the way it looks and feels, and it makes my foundation look so much better, but I think it's causing me to break out. I just got my period, and...

    I bought this product last spring and was really impressed the first few times I used it: it gave my oily skin a clean, even, matte finish. I could wear it, apply a little bit of concealer over it,...

    I'm really pleasantly surprised by this primer/foundation. I got caught in a Philisophy "free facial" in my local Nordstroms, and the clinicians put a bunch of stuff on my face, but I was most...

    This stuff will give me "make-up optional skin"? Hardly. A primer to wear under make up, however I found it to be too heavy and I didn't like waiting the 3-5 minutes before putting my foundation...

    Made my sensitive-rosacea prone skin itch really bad. This one is going back to QVC immediately.

    I see here that this is such a love or hate product. For me, both sides make sense. I love it when i apply it and it gives me a great matte finish, making my skin smooth and "airbrushed." I hate...

    This is total crap! I have used this three times and every time it makes my makeup "ball up" impossible to put foundation on after. And yes for the cynics out there I waited 20 minutes before...

    This is just the best primer for my oily skin. I ran out of Smashbox Primer, and finding this was pure serendipity. It is sold as clear makeup and not many people know it is a great primer and...

    Love this stuff. If you use it right, it helps your make-up stay put and keeps away the oilies.<p> It used to be sold as an oil-free moisturizer so it doubles well for that too. In fact, the...
