I discovered this product years ago when I was an SA for Clarins. It was one of the pre-cursors to primers. We were advised to always apply this first, before applying foundation to our clients. ...

I like this product very much, but it breaks me out and leavs my skin very dry. I have dry and sensitive skin, but I love it and use a little of it on special days.

A nice primer for dull skin. Tightens and brightens, just like it says on the tin. A little goes a long way, don't slather it on, smooth a tiny bit all over your face without rubbing. You can also...

I actually quite like the BFB. It's a fickle to put on without it peeling off but I'm slowly getting the hang of it. It helps that I don't have a lot of make up to put on after so I usually manage...

I bought this years ago (1998) and then again in 2008.. I guess I just wanted to check whether it would serve me better with more mature skin - this is a flop. FLOP!... Goes on like any moisturizer...

The review below me is correct- It is the best little thing out there. It really does perk up the skin, refreshes tone, and it does seem to start looking better and better as the hours go by......
