    While the packaging I feel is pretty solid, it just felt like a basic silicone primer. My makeup did crease and wipe off during the day regardless. I would not buy again. Also, yes, it is green...

    This is a waste of money. I got the trial size for $16(UGH) from Macy's probably almost a year ago now and I never reach for it. I don't necessarily expect this to clear my skin up because it's not...

    It's horrible and makes my foundation go on so weird and rub off and stuff idk. It didn't help with my acne at all either. Their normal Photo Finish Primer is way better.

    This primer is fine, but quite different from the other Smashbox primers I've used. The texture is like a moisturizing lotion. My skin is acne prone, and though I can't decide if the product...

    This primer is decent. I've been using it for a month now under foundation and while it doesn't do a great job of keeping my skin from getting too oily, there seems to be less transfer with my...

    This primer does a good job at holding on my make up so it wont melt off, and I have acne. When I applied it, first off I'm not a big fan of the smell (i don't know how to describe it) but i wasn't...

    This product didn't do anything good or bad for my skin. Just added an extra step in my routine. Complete waste of money.

    Not very good with the whole "blemish control" thing so if you have oily skin, don't expect a miracle. But like make up girls know, green color does do a great job of covering red. So if you have...
