    primers are supposed to stay put and help smooth out your face to prep your skin. well this was a very silcone slippery substance that just sinked right into your skin in seconds. it gives a...

    I have been searching for a good primer and this was not it. It had a very silicone-y feel to it and i have somewhat oily skin and this just made it worse. It did make my foundation stay on a few...

    I wanted to like this. But this is yet another one that has caused my face to break out. In addition, I wasn't a fan of the oiliness of it, nor how long it took to dry on my skin. With that said,...

    Decent product but too much paraben (really harmful, especially to women) and very silicone-y - that's all I'd like to say. For girls who have oily skin like I do, we could totally switch to a...

    I purchased this after being extremely disappointed with Smashbox's primer. Unlike Smashbox primer, this primer didn't break me out! It's hard to find a primer that won't break me out, and I've...

    This is a GREAT primer. It smoothed out a lot of my pores, and my face looked a lot more evened out without foundation. However, the packaging could be improved upon. When I thought I had a good...

    Meh. Not totally impressed. It has the same texture/consistency as the NYX Primers, just a run of the mill silicone primer. For the price, I guess its a good deal, but I really dont see anything...

    Eh, this product just wasn't for me. It has a really silicone type feel to it, it did make my skin feel nice but kind of greasy. Also, it only lasted for about 2 weeks, then my pump quit working...

    Feels nice and silky on the skin, and the smell was a little bad, but it's faint and goes away in a minute or so. The product itself is nice, and it does help my makeup stay on, which is awesome...

    So, I've tried two different primers before this (Rimmel Fix & Perfect and Olay/Covergirl). Both of those seemed to work OK but not exceptionally. I decided to give this product a try. It...

    On my normal to dry/retin-A skin this went on nice, but dried down to a bit of a dry finish with some flaking where I don't normally have any. It kind of reminds me of Monistat Chafing Gel, but...

    This is pretty decent. The lesson I've learned the hard way is that with silicone based primers like this, less is more. If you use too much (a full pump) it will make it more difficult to apply...
