    I am not sure what all the hype is about this product. It makes your skin feel dry and I have oily/combo skin. I have tried this product 3-4 times and everytime I have broken out!! beware...

    I was reading an article in a magazine last month in which MA Sue Devitt said that primer was one of those things you could pass on, unless you had a very cheap foundation that lacked finesse or...

    Kind of a slick little product for smoothing out tiny lines and puckers that tend to stand out with foundation. I liked the idea that it had vitamins, etc., although there are probably other,...

    Amazing primer for me! It turns your skin into velvet. I 'm not sure about the oil-control property of this primer but nevertheless, it makes my skin look so gorgeous. Smooth and even toned. Also...

    I have slightly ruddy cheeks and chin and didn't notice any change at all after using this under my makeup. The color was almost transparent and the primer only average.

    This product gave me whiteheads, and I haven't gotten those in a long time. Won't be using this again.

    I was very concerned about breaking out from a silcone based primer - I was wrong to put off trying this! This is an excellent product and I haven't had to touch up at all during the day. I...

    I LOVE this product! I bought it at Nordstrom after I saw it on QVC. I loved the "slip" it hand on the back of my hand, but wasn't convinced at the store when demonstrated on my face. Maybe it's...

    I liked how smooth this felt going on but it did nothing to help with my foundation. Save your $ ladies. BTW, I have normal-to-dry skin and rarely break out.
