I don’t find anything special about this primer, I tried many times to like it. It lightly smooths my skin but nothing dramatic. Not a lasting matifying effect, but did not break me out either....

I used a deluxe sized sample of this primer for about 1 month and I really enjoyed it. This primer reminds me of Smashbox’s primer, which NYX has a more afforable dupe for. Anyways, this primer...

Repeating one of the other reviewers for this product, a primer is only going to do so much for the appearance of your skin and levity of foundation - personally, I love this primer, it's a little...

This primer made me super oily... on top of the oily skin I have !! Horrible. The blurring one is the best one, upset that I grabbed this one by a mistake & still decided to give it a try.

This primer felt good going on. That is important to me because I hate the way most primers feel on my skin. I didn't use this long enough to know if it helped treat my acne ( for me it's only a...

https://youtu.be/CaWwdeZ7vIY I picked up a little sample of this at the check out lane in Sephora. I was super stoked to try it because I've read great things about Cover FX and I know they have...

It's a good primer but it's not perfect. If you're going to try this, I recommend getting the half-ounce mini travel size Sephora offers for $16, so that you can really test it before committing...

By far one of the worse primers I have ever tried in my life. It felt greasy when applied to my skin. Once on, I would apply my back up and it would make up slip and slide. I could not get my make...

For those of you that think a primer can perform miracles and keep oily skin matte, think again. A product can only do so much on it's own. Unless you are lucky and have found the perfect formula...

This is the only primer I've ever used up and repurchased. It does a decent job of keeping the oilies at bay but not completely. It does not break me out and definitely prolongs the wear of my...

Does nothing. Zilch. Nada. You may as well smooth air across your t-zone and hope it'll somehow magically work. Pores are still huge, nose and forehead still oily, no worse than before, but not...

I've been through 2 deluxe samples of this and it has separated every time. If I'm going to pay this much for a primer, I'd better not have to knead the tube every time.

This didn't really help with my acne, even though I went through 3 bottles. I stuck with it because I didn't research enough about primers. It tingles a little bit when I put it on, which didn't...

I love this primer! I’ve been using it for about a week and it mattifies my oil slick face very well. I use it under the Diorskin Nude Air or Nars Tinted Moisturizer and it works longer than most...

Doing noting. It doesn't break me out. But it can't control the oiliness. Then, what's the point of using this primer? Luckily I bought just the sample from Sephora. Better not to use primer at all...

This primer keeps me from breaking out, but does not have so much salicylic acid in it that it dries me out. I am not oily (pretty normal/dry) so it works great for me. Most acne control things dry...

After really liking the MUFE HD primer, I had high hopes for this primer, as the only thing I wished was even just slightly better about the HD was its oil control, and that's what this product is...
