    I do like this primer, as for primers (I have tried a lot) I think this is my favorite. It's very light, no breakouts, smooth and soft skin. That being said I am still on the fence about...

    I really love this primer! I can definitely tell the difference with the way my MU looks when I do/don't put it on before my foundation/powder. I always hated the pump, it seemed to break midway...

    It's not a bad primer. On the days my skin acts up, I use a very thin layer (less than a pea size for the whole face), and it's like using the "blur" function in photoshop: skin visibly smoothed,...

    Possibly the most overrated product in the Smashbox line (which is an overrated makeup company in my humble opinion). Nice velvet consistency, will give you that. Has this nasty tendency to flake...

    I hated this stuff. It made my face feel sort of dry and rubbery before putting on foundation and my skin is normally very smooth and not dry at all to begin with. I'm so glad I got this in a free...

    This stuff sucks. It probably only works well on people with perfectly smooth skin. Consider yourself lucky if that's your case, this stuff is crap on my face.

    It is just alright, the texture is kind of gross and it don't notice that it makes much difference to when I don't use it. I don't think I would buy this again since it barely does anything.

    This product works well as a primer, my TM glided on smoothly. But that is about it, I didn't get shiny so no complaining in that category. For the price however, it was rather expensive and I...

    Hi, I absolutely love waking up to red inflamed cysts on my cheeks and chin all thanks to a product that doesn't even do what it's advertised to do :)

    This broke me out horribly, is mostly silicone, and doesn't do anything to benefit your face. Lots of the product is impossible to get out of the bottom of the bottle, making an expensive product...

    I have turned numerous friends and family onto this. It helps your canvas, your face, for a long day without much run-off. It ensures a healthier look. Seriously- love this.
