    I survey clients before putting this product on and I'd know if the person is allergic to silicone products or have used this primer before and had adverse reactions. They would also tell me if...

    After reading the reviews, I went and bought the one that is oil-free. On the eve of the application day, I went to sleep with a SK-II hydrating mask. The morning after, after washing my face, I...

    As of right now, I'm really not impressed with this primer. While it feels great on my face, it's doing nothing for my large pores. They look just as big after using Photo Finish as they did with...

    I think this is the best primer I've ever used. I see the purpose of the primer to make me feel like I'm an even canvas before using everything else and this definitely does that. Also, the...

    I have very mixed feelings about this product. On the plus side, it has a very nice feel, conceals my large pores and definitely makes foundation go on smoother and stay longer. On the negative...

    It definitely has that smooth, velvety feel. I love this primer because I do have oily skin and it does help to keep the shine away for much longer then if I went primer-less. I do wish the price...

    I do like this silicone primer, but It really does nothing for oil control...still a good primer I could tell a difference when I skipped this step.

    It took me a long time to figure out that my skin is allergic to silicone/dimethicone, because I love the way this stuff feels on my skin; it also helps my makeup go on smooth and last all day. It...

    A great primer - makeup stays put and smooths out pores. It has really changed my makeup regime.

    Great product! Oil free and by far the best primer I've ever used. The bottle lasts a while and comes out in a pump.

    This is the only primer I've used so far so I can't really compare it to other products. But I really like it. It makes your skin really smooth and soft. A good canvas for foundation. It gives you...

    This is a good primer, it does what a primer should. However, it made me break out, go figure. I give it a 3 because it's pricey and evidently you can get a similar effect from using the monistat...
