    Okay, I hate that this has fragrance. But other than that, it works well for me. My skin is a major grease fest daily, even with so-called mattifying makeup and powders. But if I take a pea-sized...

    Terrible. I'm throwing it away; it's that bad. Doesn't block shine at all. However, it Does not make dark skin look gray.

    Still, can't for the life of me find a decent facial primer since Dior decided to d/c their Pore Minimizer primer. I'm what you would call extremely oily. Everything gets oily and shiny in just 10...

    BEST primer for oily skin!!! This primer comes in a tube that is 1 fluid ounce. It is white but I am fair skinned so I do not see a white cast left on my face from it. It does have a slight gritty...

    Like a lot of other reviews say, this has a super gritty texture. It honestly does help with my oily skin though, more than any other primer I've tried. But sometimes it dries out my skin so I...

    This is the only primer that is actually effective in controlling the shine on my face throughout an 8-hour work day, and this includes high-end primers too. I have super oily skin that shows tiny...

    Yes I is a bit grainy but it is the best drugstore primer I have used. My skin is very oily and with this primer I'm mostly shine free for the whole day. I recommend this product.

    I'm a bit surprised by the reviews on this primer because I have very oily skin and it is so good at controlling shine. When I ran out, I decided to try the NYX photo finish primer, smashbox, and...

    Made my skin feel suffocated and it did not help with oil control at all. I am pretty disappointed.

    This makes your skin look white! It has small specks of glitter which is a little odd for a primer. It's definitely light weight and it feels like a cream. It doesn't prime, and it definitely does...
