Why, oh why, did I not purchase this before? I thought it would be just like any other makeup primer, but I was so wrong! It has this subtle, white reflectiveness to it which is just great for...

This is a fantastic product! It leaves the skin naturally even toned, while brightening it... I do not use it as a primer as I don't wear foundation. I think that it is better worn by itself, as...

Although at $45 USD, Le Blanc de Chanel is definitely on the pricey side for a base/primer, for me it is well worth it and I've already repurchased after discovering this product in early 2010. It...

I love this product. I can't believe it. It gives a glow to the face while mattifying. The only thing I wish is that it had a pump.

This is a fabulous product and by far the most natural of all primers I have tried. So many including Mercier and Smashbox tend to roll or can be somewhat dry. This product is simply clean and...
