    I have really dry skin & this just settled in to my pores & then my foundation looked bumpy, not smooth. It did keep my foundation on all day but i need something more moisturizing that smooths my...

    First off I did not and would never apply this all over my face. I did enjoy using it when I needed to look polished but did not feel like applying much makeup. The way I applied this was to...

    I got a little sample tube with purchase and since Smashbox usually makes good primers I was curious to try it out. This is a bronzy colored primer which matches with my NC30 skintone, it does not...

    I got this in a sample size from ipsy. I don't find it does anything to elongate my foundation wear time but if I mix a dollop of this with my foundation and buff it on, it does give me a fresh,...

    Really nice primer.. Skin feels very silky and smooth after applying but can only be worn with a tan or olive skin. As I am a natural milk bottle this remakes wreaked havoc but leaving me with an...

    This made me look like a disco ball in natural light and it did absolutely nothing to control oil...YUCK.

    I got a sample of this from a Smashbox rep at Ulta. I love it. I was worried it would make my face look greasy. It did not. I apply my cerave moisturizer then the Smashbox primer and then finally...

    I work at Sephora and this is one of the samples I took home. I love it! It helped my Urban Decay Naked last throughout work (since it has a tendency to fade after several hours wear) and it truly...

    I will buy a different Smashbox primer next time, just not this particular one. It definitely helped with foundation application. It is not good for cool skin tones though - but if you are a medium...

    This is a review of the oil free version. I really love this primer. All of the primers I have previously used that have claimed to give you ‘luminosity’ or ‘glow’ or any other such light...

    This is a nice formula, which i knew it would be considering I've used the adjust formula for years. However, it's too dark on my NC15 skin, and makes me look orange. I wanted to get something to...

    I received this as a gift and I really like it! It is quite shimmery and can look a little dark on my skin so I only use this if I have a tab or I'm going out in the night. I actually mix a dab of...

    I got a huge sample of this primer from the beautician at Shopper's Drug mart. It lasted me over three months, but I will still re-purchase when I run out. This primer is definitely concentrated,...

    The shimmer and silicones in Photo Finish Luminizing foundation primer are not well suited to mature skin. Looks peachy bronze in the tube but goes on almost clear, however it's probably best for...

    I thought this would be a nice luminizing primer saving me the time that I use to mix the original primer with a luminizing liquid. Instead it is too dark and turns anyone from fair to medium...

    Expensive for me but I won't use it everyday so I expect it to last at least six months. I'm not 100% satisfied with this product, but considering my age (37) and all the sun damage - it is pretty...
