    I was looking for a less expensive primer than the one I currently use (NV Perricone) and decided to give this a shot. I'm disappointed to say this just didn't make the cut. It goes on smooth,...

    Nice primer. Very smooth when applying and creates a barrier between makeup and skin. Actually, didn't use the primer on my oily, acne-prone skin for 2 days in a row, and got my first cheek...

    This is one of those hit or miss products. On some people, this works fantastic. And then others break out from it horribly. For me, it doesnt break me out insanely (which i was scared of since...

    AAhhhh! Luv this! I went to Africa in December (it's the hottest time of the year) My face did not melt. Great under my Mac powder. Alone it gives a satin look without the "perfect skin color"....

    Great product. My foundation lasted all day and my face looks flawless. Of course, I powder the t-zone area with Mac powder. Fantastic!!!

    I have very oily skin and I was hoping this stuff would control sebum production and help keep my foundation on. How wrong I was. When first applied, it has a mattifying effect, goes on smooth. ...

    I quite like this primer. It made my dry skin feel so much smoother and moisturized. Makes foundation glide on very easy and last so much longer.

    I love this primer!!! The ONLY two draw backs are the pump bottle and the price. The price isn't that bad because the bottle lasts forever if you know how to control the pump. It makes lines pores...
