I was pretty disappointed that in the ingredients in this primer. Unnecessary fragrance and there are much more affordable options on the market. I will not purchase.

I have tried so many primers. None of them did it for me. They usually made the situation worse. My skin is now dry but my pores are still huge. Every time I look in the mirror I see craters on my...

I bought this because of all the hype about it. I don’t have large pores but I’m old so of course have fine lines. The worst part about this product is how thick and immovable it is on the skin....

I bought this based on Tati's glowing reviews, but I have to say I've been pretty disappointed. I do find that it somewhat blurs out my pores, but it doesn't seem to keep my foundation in place...

This primer does what it says... It lasts a long time because you only need a small small amount of it to fill pores and fine lines. It can even fill deep smile lines to prevent foundation from...
