I can totally tell the difference if I use foundation without this underneath. and I think it helps with the oil factor somewhat. The thing I didn't like about it is that it rolls off if I put...

I cannot say enough about this product. You put it on and instantly pores are refined, your skin looks matte yet illuminated, makeup stays on forever, and oil breakthough is minimized. I am VERY...

If you have oily skin, I strongly recommend this product. It works wonders. My oily skin isn't an issue anymore with this on. Normally I'd be blotting by about 11 am. With this, I can get well...

I can't figure out this product: at first, I was amazed at the smooth, perfectly matte/dewy finish that it gave, making it optimal for the makeup application that would follow. But then when I...

I just received this from the Shiseido counter as a sample, after I purchased the Tinted Moisturizer. I love this primer. I've been through ALL the primers on this forum. Either they ball up,...

I was convinced to buy this when I bought Shiseido's Powdery Foundation. It does what it says. Helps to smooth my combo/oily skin for even coverage. I have had this for a while now and the...

The updated packaging (from jar to tube) convinced me to try this again. I've used Laura Mercier and Smashbox - both seemed to change, in a negative direction, the appearance of my Laura Mercier...

Gives you a very pretty pearly finish you almost don't need to put anything on top. It's a little thick but gives you a little extra moisture if you need it. I noticed that it beads a little when...

HG all the way!!!! Have been using it for a month now and still have a lot left in the tube. Fills in the pores and allows my foundation to stay on longer. Have tried Smashbox and Vincent Longo...

I like this product a lot as a primer to help my foundation wear longer. I am oily skinned and have large pores. It didn't do too much to help the pappearance of my pores but did hold my foundation...

I was never a fan of makeup primers until I tried this. I've been using Shiseido foundations for quite a while, so I thought I'd see how it went, & was pleasantly surprised. It has a very slight...

This did the job as advertised but it isn't worth the price. The packaging is inconvenient - the product belongs in a pump so one doesn't need 2 hands to get to it. At least this is sanitary. It...

This pre-makeup cream did nothing for me. I like Laura Mercier's a lot better for its consistency. I also think that for such a small tube this stuff is overpriced.

Too greasy for the humid weather here as my face turned oily after only an hour. It was also too thick for my combi skin and didn't make my skin look smoother at all.

When I'm feeling lazy, I only need to wear this. Not only does it protect my skin, but it gives my face a nice pearly glow. The lotion is pinky-white and almost leaves a powdery finish. I wish...
