    I LOVE this primer. It makes my skin super silky and soft, while keeping my makeup on all day and night. It also has a nice scent. It is expensive, considering it runs out pretty fast, but...

    Broke me out BIG TIME after just one use without helping my makeup stay on at all. Enough said.

    Okay, so I bought this after all of the rave I was hearing.....might I add this is the worst product to by if you have combination/oily skin. After purchasing this and using it with my Revlon...

    This was one of the first foundation primers I ever tried. I'd been using Lise Watier before this but a friend pressured me into buying this, swearing it was the best thing since sliced bread. It...

    This primer goes on like a DREAM. But its so expensive I don't think I'll re-purchase. I've tried out the NYX's studio perfect primer which is supposed to be its "dupe" and also a fraction of its...

    I went to Sephora back in 2009 and asked the saleslady to help me put together an 'everyday' look. Nothing too 'done up', but nice. She used this primer in the Blend formulation (apricot) and a...

    This is the best primer I have used. It makes my face feel silky and really helps my foundation to glide on, which is good for avoiding a cakey face. I haven't noticed a difference in how long my...

    This primer is just OK, not that great for people with oily skin. I think it would work well for those with normal skin. The product feels like lotion and is not sticky. There is also no scent...

    I bought this primer and broke out terribly the first time. I stopped using it and blamed it on hormones. A few months later, I tried it again and gave my skin time to 'adjust'....same thing. A few...

    I'm really on the fence about this primer. I've bought it for a couple years now, not loving it or hating it. I like the texture-- absorbs nicely, not glue-like, no offensive smell. I find that it...

    I keep using this, each time hoping it will finally work. It never does and I might as well not use a primer. My foundation, whether liquid or powder, still gathers in clumps between my brows and...

    I got the trial sized one from Sephora and did notice it making my foundation last longer. However, it made me break out so it's not worth it for me. Even the small size lasts a while, so if you're...
