I bought this to stop my makeup sliding off halfway through the day. And it does that- but in horrible patches that leave me looking blotchy and cakey. Yuck yuck yuck! It also doesn't improve...

This primer is very thick, almost glue like, and has to be applies just right otherwise it can ball up and roll off you're skin-it also clings to my dry patches. I really feel like I have to take...

Ok, so this product isn't perfect. However, I've chosen to give it five stars as it's the only product I've ever used that actually seems to stop my face from producing so much oil. If I had to...

I have a very oily t-zone and prone to break outs. I've always struggled with it. I was at Target looking at make up and saw this so I gave it a try. I must say it excised my expectations. I put my...

This primer is kinda hard to put on as it dries quickly and doesn't have a very smooth, silicon-y feel like a lot of other primers do. You have to work quickly and in sections to get it on nicely....

Being someone who has very oily skin, I need a primer that will fully mattify my skin before even thinking about applying foundation. This primer does an excellent job of taking every bit of oil...

The consistency of this primer is exactly like glue. It's nearly impossible to smooth over my skin because it dries almost instantly, and then it flakes and rolls into little pieces when I tried to...

This is the first primer I have ever tried but unfortunately it wasn't for me. I use a compact powder foundation, and the primer made my skin look patchy. I think this would work better with a good...

Whoa, I am shocked at all the negative reviews! Yes, this is very thick and a bit tricky to spread. But it's not really THAT hard. And I'm guessing if it's making your foundation not blend...

yuck! This has the texture of glue, and you have to apply a TON at a time or it won't spread out at all. This made my skin break out and didn't at all help with oil or shine control.
