I like this stuff. I use it alone and with foundation. For me VSC tones down some of the redness on my cheeks and really gives my face of a matte glow. Foundation really does go on smoother and you...

I use DHC's skincare line and love it. It's great that you get 4 samples w/ every order. I received VSC as a sample. This is the only primer I have ever tried. It's really cool- it does give...

I found the primer to be especially effective used under "bare minerals" foundations. Makes the foundation/loose powder go on more smoothly and seems to last througout the day.

While I love how my skin feels after I put Velvet Skin Coat on, I noticed that when I use my MAC base (Studio Tech) I get visible flakes. This does not happen when I use my Neutrogena (liquid)...

I don't really get the purpose of this product. Sure, it does make your skin smooth albeit an artifical smoothness (feeling of silicone on skin), but it's not exactly moisturizing, and it doesn't...

At first I wasn't sure if I liked this product. After using it for many months off and on (alternating between it and Dr. Feelgood by Benefit) I have decided that I really do like it. I'm not a...

This product goes on clear and leaves a very smooth finish. The DHC base goes on very well over it. Works well to absord some of the oil on my forhead and nose all day and helps foundation last...

This is a translucent gel with a powdery feel to the finish, but it's invisible. Underneath foundation, it makes a smooth base. The packaging is a small tube with a narrow nozzle that allows a...

This is a review of a *sample*. My experience w/the sample was enough for me to know it wasn't for me: This did have a velvety texture and made my skin feel soft. Sadly, it was incompatible...

I'd been looking for a good foundation primer, hoping it would a) help my makeup go on more evenly, and b) help my makeup stay on longer. The DHC Velvet Skin Coat does both! I received a sample...

In general, I agree with Peggya. This is an almost identical product to Smashbox PhotoFinish Face Primer. The only differences are a) it comes in a squeeze tube, rather than Smashbox's pump bottle,...

What I like most about this primer is that as you wipe it on, you can see it just "fill in" the pores and lines, and you are left with a much smoother looking surface. This is siliconey like the...
