    Broke me out like crazy! I bought this for a special occasion and while it did help my make-up stay on longer and my foundation appeared smoother, I was left with cystic acne afterwards. I've used...

    I ended up with two samples of this primer from Sephora on separate occasions. For whatever reason, I kept forgetting I had them, and didn't try it out until recently. I've finished both samples,...

    I really wanted to love this primer, especially since I heard great things about it. Unfortunately, I don't. My skin is normal to dry, and I'm in my 30s. I usually use MUFE primer, or no primer...

    This is by far the best primer I've ever used. Very silky texture, controls my oil, & doesn't break me out.

    This primer feels great on, but does not do much for pores, and my face is super shiny mid-day. I do have really oily skin so I'm not sure this is the best primer for that. I think I'll try...
