    I really do love this primer. From all the other primers used, so far this minimizes on my fine lines and holds my makeup in place. Unfortunately, I do feel it on my skin, it is not as light as i...

    This product is supposedly for all-skin type. I have an oily complexion, and sadly, this isn't the right one for me. Despite of being in my late 30s, I don't have problems with wrinkles/fine...

    As a primer no good, my mu did not stay on longer or make any beneficial difference. As a foundation alone no way! Unless you have flawless young skin to begin with, then yes it could be great. I...

    The packaging is okay. With the jar, it's sometimes hard to get just a little out in a clean way. I actually use a baby spoon to get the right amount in a sanitary way! At first I didn't think I...

    This is a wonderful, translucent lightweight primer (even though it looks white in the jar). It blends really easily and evenly and covers spots, fills in lines, and leaves a beautiful sheer "veil"...
