    I love the suble blue micro shimmer and the delightful texture of this primer. I always feel like a million bucks when I wear it.

    Not sure why this product is still on the line. The new Le Blanc primer is 1000x better. This is thick and my foundation never blended well over it

    I. Love. This. I wasn't even sure how I would use it and was very skeptical, but I finally gave in and brought one home. I am so glad I did! I have tried other 'illuminating' type things, but...

    First primer I truly enjoyed using. I've used a handful from L'Oreal, Hourglass, Nars, etc and this one actually made a difference in my skin. Just wearing it by itself gives my skin a slight...

    Having problems with your foundation? This base is your solution! I do, however, think that it is best suited for Chanel foundations. I was struggling with the oxidation of Vitalumiere Aqua, by...

    This is an absolutely FABULOUS primer that makes my Perfection Lumiere foundation (BA34) FLAWLESS. Though the small size of the bottle is alarming at first you truly need very, very little of it to...

    This is just an average primer. This does not illuminate my skin like it claims, and my skin is not noticeably smoother after I applied it. I use it under my Chanel Mat Lumiere foundation and my...

    I must point out that I don't use foundation and probably this is the reason why this product doesn't work for me as it is meant to be used as primer or mixed with foundation to ease its...

    I just bought this to go with Vitalumiere Acqua and I like them both very much. The primer is liquidy as opposed to some really silicony ones that I have tried and hated in the past. It goes on...

    A lightweight, gel-like primer that feels amazing upon application on bare skin. I have tried so many primers--Hourglass, MAC, smashbox, Giorgio Armani, etc.--and I find this primer to be among the...

    This is just meh. It's a gel-ish lotion (I have the Lotus shade) that so far has been almost completely underwhelming. The pluses are that it goes on smoothly, has very little scent, leaves a...

    This primer works. So why wouldn't I buy it again? One, the cost. If it truly "illuminated" my skin and did things other (cheaper) primers don't, I wouldn't care about the price. But it doesn't. I...
