    This product is very mediocre. It did make my skin look smoother and pore less large, but it only lasted a few hours. The bigger problem was that I noticed a had about three pimples on my face. I...

    So far this is my favorite primer/base! Pros: -Blurs pores & smooths out texture, immediately. -The little glass jar is super cute! -It is on the thicker side, but once you warm it up, it applies...

    Loved this stuff to begin with, as it was great with blurring large pores and smoothing over acne scars to create a uniform canvas for my foundation. Unfortunately it made me break out in HUGE...

    This isn't a "dupe" for a high end primer - this is a high end primer! Loreal owns almost every cosmetic company out there -- including many high end brands and they make the cosmetics for these...

    So I'm also looking for a good primer. This one is a proper dupe for Tarte's smoothing primer. It's surprising not a bad primer at all. Mousse like consistency. I pat this over my T zone only. ...

    Your pores do vanish! But the next day they flare up and turn into acne. I have good skin to begin with so beware it clogs pores like no other.

    I found this to be a great affordable dupe for the Tarte Timeless Smoothing Primer, and at a fraction of the cost. I am over 50 with large pores in my T-zone, where I also have oil buildup through...

    This is a great primer to blur large pores. I use it under my Lumi foundation and it's great. No patchiness or weird spots, just smooth and even. I don't know that it makes my foundation last...
