Perfect skin in under a minute. Normal, Dry, Combination, Oily skin types. Cream texture. Apply before foundation for a flawless complexion. This award winning primer is the perfect combination of make-up and skin care. With an ultra-light, ultra-smooth texture it glides on skin, leaving a imperceptible veil on its surface, filling in and smoothing away the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and pores. Your skin is left 'foundation ready' to give your make-up a more even and flawless finish. Can also be used alone or mixed-in with your foundation. Polishes, smooths and fills in wrinkles and fine lines.

    I use this primer to blur my pores, and it works really well. It has a thick texture, so I use it only on the pores area. For the rest of my face I use a lighter primer of other brand. At first, I...

    I've been buying this for years - it really works for under eyes! It doesn't seem to work anywhere else though, and I've tried.
