    Simply put, I didn't like it. My foundation looks the same with or without it . I would not buy again and I will not even use what I have.

    I love this primer! It goes on very smoothly and keeps my foundation in place all day. I'd recommend buying two of the sample size squeeze bottles rather than the full size pump bottle - you get...
